The DuPont Company of Wilmington, Delaware, makers of better things for better living through chemistry, presents the Cavalcade of America. Tonight's star, Cornel Wild. Tonight's DuPont Cavalcade is called Improvement Noted, and here, starring in the role of a life-evil at Denison, is Cornel Wild. Shakespeare in Romeo and Juliet, in describing the poverty of a poor merchant, talks of his being surrounded by a beggarly account of empty boxes. How well that once might have applied to me. It was 1844, my little jewelry shop in Bangor, Maine, was in bad shape. No customers, no future to look to, nothing but shelves piled high, a beggarly account of empty boxes. I'm here, Lydia, down behind the counter. What are you doing there? Hiding from my creditors. I brought you lunch. Well, let's eat it quick before the sheriff slaps an attachment on it. No customers today? Oh, lots of them. For every store on the street, but mine. Sliplets. Hmm? What's next Saturday? Oh, June 30th. It's something else. What? Our anniversary. And we're going to celebrate. How? Let's go home to Brunswick. After we close the store Saturday, it'll be a wonderful little vacation. Please? Well, Lydia, I'd like to go home to see mother and dad, but... What is it? Aaron will be there. I had a letter from him yesterday. So, supposing Aaron is there? Don't you want to see your brother? I shouldn't feel this way about Aaron. He's done so much for me, but while he overpowers me when I'm with him, he keeps telling me why I'm not a success, keeps harping on the fact that I have little ambitions, while he thinks big, always big. Oh, now you're being foolish. Oh, sure I am, Lydia.  Of course we'll go to Brunswick for our anniversary. We'll have a wonderful time. It's no more than I expected, Elyphelet. I told you not to set up that jewelry shop in Bangkok.  I told you you'd wind up losing every cent you ever owned, and I was right. Well, it's all over. I'd rather not talk about it. Well, I'll talk about it. You're too much like father. He's a failure, and so are you. Why? Because you both think small. Both of you. Aaron, can't we stop all this? I haven't the time to think things out. I'm not like a rubber ball that bounces back after it hits the floor. I've got the time to think. I came home to Brunswick for a holiday. Let's not... Oh, let's talk about it some other time. You've got a wife to support and a baby coming. But what do you want me to do? Come to Boston. I want you to run my jewelry shop. Look after it. Oh, what about you? Aren't you going to be in the shop? Not unless I have to be. I've hit on a tremendous idea, Elyphelet. Something big. The kind of an idea that has meat on it. I've decided to manufacture watches by machine. By machine. All by machine. Do you think it can be done? It sounds almost impossible. Anything that requires a little push and ingenuity sounds impossible to you. I wish you'd let me think about it, Aaron. I want a yes or no answer, and I want it now. All right. I'll come to Boston. It settled it. Well... Oh, am I intruding? Lydia, come in. How could you ever intrude? When you walk into the room, the lights go on and the band begins to play. Oh, look at that fancy talk, Aaron. Is that what they teach you in Boston? Never you mind about Boston, Lydia. It's the place for a man to buff his brass. I was just looking for you, Elyphelet. Here he is. And all yours. And all I can say is that the prettiest girl in Brunswick deserves better. I'll leave you two alone. What was Aaron saying? As usual, he took pains to remind me that I was a failure. You shouldn't let him talk to you that way. I shouldn't. As far back as I can remember, he's been able to dominate me. The whole family for that matter. He overpowers you. He doesn't ever power me. He never has. I wish I had your gumption, Lydia. You do, dear. If you only think you don't. Oh, that's true. I'm sorry. Lydia, for the prettiest bell in Brunswick, you sure made a rotten choice. Another piece of chicken, Aaron? No, thanks, Father. Suit yourself. Lydia? No, thank you. Elyphelet? No, thank you. Mother, are you in the mood for a little surprise? A surprise? For me, Aaron? For you. In solemn recognition of all the years you've had to suffer the strain of the dentist and bruise. A little present. Oh, you shouldn't have done it, Aaron. You're just too big-hearted for your own good. Nonsense. Here, Mother, it's for you. Elyphelet, pass along. All right, I... Oh. Oh, I'm so sorry. It dropped right out of my hand. Why are you always so clumsy? I said I'm sorry. Oh, I hope it isn't broken, whatever it is. It's a watch, and you can rest assured it's broken. Well, the box came apart right in my hand. Well, I suppose it wasn't your fault. It happens all the time with those blasted boxes. I send to France, pay top prices, and this is the kind of junk they send me. Disgusting. I'm sorry. Here it is. Let me see. Hmm. Yeah, just as I feared. Stopped. Well, I'm sorry, Mother. I'll have to send you another when I get back to Boston. That's all right, Aaron. I had the same trouble with my jewelry boxes in Bangor. Seems kind of silly to send all the way to France just for boxes. Well, there's no place else to get them, Father. No one makes jewelry boxes in America. If anyone did, they'd find a pretty market. Well, somebody ought to do it. That's right. Why don't you do it, Father? Me? Yes. I'm a cobbler. That's my trade. Not a box maker. Seems to me you're not a very successful cobbler. Hey, Jerusalem! Don't you ever say that to me, Aaron. I'm a cobbler. I am an a mighty fine cobbler. It ain't my fault that them inventors have come up with a shoemaking machine that's putting me out of business. Father, Father, have some tea. Don't offer me tea when I'm in a sample woman. All right, all right. I don't want to start an argument. You started an argument the minute you walked into this house wearing machine-made shoes. I thought I didn't notice today. Fronting your shoes in my face. That's what you've been doing while I've had enough. Where are you going? I'm going out. And I ain't coming back into this house until Aaron takes off them shoes. You get angry too quickly, Father. I've got reason. Aaron had a good idea there, you know? What idea? Make boxes. You too, Leifelet. I'm a cobbler. No, no, Father. We're both in the same boat, flat-broke. Well, we'll find something. Well, maybe this is it. You're handy with tools. You can make boxes. Look here, I've spent a little time soaking this box apart. Nothing but a rectangle of heavy paper with four corners cut out. Then the edges are folded up and a piece of paper pasted around to hold them. That's all. Not interested. If you went to work with maybe a dozen sheets of paper at a time, cut out the corners all at once, you could turn out a lot of them.  Not if you figure out a machine to do it. A machine? You could make one. Try it, Father. Why not? I won't do it. Well, if you did do it, you made some money out of it, even a little. You wouldn't have to depend on Aaron. Well, that's what I call a sensible argument. Would you do it? I'll do it. How many can you turn out, do you think? I don't know. But if it's a way to show up, Aaron, never you fear. I'll turn out paper boxes, faster than a man with no teeth can spit tacks. Lydia. Oh, dear. Well, what are you doing lugging all these packages? They came to Boston this morning from Brunswick. I'll pick them up. They weren't heavy. I thought I could manage them. From Father? Mm-hmm. Oh, must be the first shipment of the boxes he's been making. Let's take a look. All right. Where's Aaron? Oh, out on his big deal. Oh. Been busy? No. Had one customer in this morning for a watch, but he wasn't satisfied with anything I showed him. Well, these boxes are pretty nice, aren't they? Oh, they are. Give me that little watch on the counter. Let's see if the size is right. Oh, and some tissue paper. Thanks. Oh, it looks so pretty. It fits just right, too. Father's done a good job. Oh, excuse me, a customer. Yes, sir, can I help you? I'm the man who was here before, remember? Oh, of course. All right, where's that watch you showed me? One of the other stores have anything any better. Now, if I was in New York, I could get something really first-class. Here you are, sir. Huh? Oh, you mean you got some more in after I left, eh? Oh, I know. Well, then why didn't you show this to me before? Oh, well, I did, sir. Well, I don't know what you did to it, but it certainly looks a lot better than when I was here before. I'll take it. Very well, sir. How much? Well, same price. Well, all right. Fine. Thank you. That's quite all right. Good day. Lydia. Did you show him that watch before? Of course I did. But this time it was in Father's box, and it looked as good as it really is. I think that's funny. Now I'm convinced. About what? You'll see. Hand me some of those boxes.  Mind the store? How can I? Of course you can. Anybody can sell watches. I'm going out to sell boxes. I'll rifle it. So there you are. It's no more than I expected. The minute I turn my back, you're off on some fools' errand. It hasn't been a fools' errand. I've been trying out... I've been trying to sell some of Father's boxes, and I've sold them. Look here, a handful of orders. Some blazes with boxes. But it was your own idea. It was just something I said on the spur of the moment to keep Father quiet. But it's a good idea. It's a piddling idea. How much do all the orders you have add up to? $16. I make more than that selling a single watch. Pennies.  The trouble with you is that you haven't got a head for business. You just... That's enough. All my life I've been listening to you say that. All my life I've been listening to it and almost beginning to believe it. But this time I'm not letting you badger me into believing I can't do what I know I can. Aaron, please, let me work out my own salvation. You are listening to the DuPont Cavalcade of America starring Cornel Wilde as Elifelette Denison, sponsored by the DuPont Company, makers of better things for better living through chemistry. The DuPont Cavalcade continues starring Cornel Wilde as Elifelette Denison. In those days, in the 1850s, it was hard to convince businessmen that American boxes could stand up to foreign imports. But with Lydia beside me, I kept pushing ahead. Pretty soon the orders were mounting up every month higher from Providence, New York, as far west as Pittsburgh. Shipments were falling behind and so one weekend, Lydia and I went up to Brunswick to see if father could speed up deliveries. Elifelette, I... I do the best I'm able.  Your father's been working awfully hard, Elifelette. What more do you expect of me, miracles? You've got to move out of Brunswick, set up a factory nearer to where I am in Boston. Move out of Brunswick? Boy, where else would I find such a good house for the fine spring right on the property? You've got to do it. Never. All right, then. Father, here's my offer. Let me buy you out. I'll buy out your interest, your machine, everything. What do you say? Name your figure. Eh... Well? Where are you going to get the money? I'll borrow it. I'll get it. What's the figure? It... $8,000. Very well. Hi, Andrew Denison. What? I never dreamed I'd see the day when you'd try to skin-finch your own son. Once on my own, really on my own, things began to happen rapidly. I set up a little shop in Boston, and slowly I built up my business, a Denison company, hiring first one worker than another. Soon I was able to expand, travel as far away as New York for orders. The trips were exciting, but of course, getting home was even better. Liddy! Liddy, over here! My home again, darling. Oh, it's wonderful to be home. How are the children? Just wonderful. Let me get my valise. Porter, may I have my bag, please? Yes, sir. As soon as I can find it, sir. Here's my baggage check. Baggage check ain't no good. The tags are all torn off. It's a mess like this every time a train pulls in. Yes, I can imagine. Them paper tags are so thin, the cords pull right out of them. Which bag is yours, sir? Huh? Oh, the brown one over there. Sure, now. Yes, sure. It's yours, then. Thank you. The carriage is right over there. Liddy. I've got a favor to ask. Yes?  I'll be along later. Oh, but you've been away so long now, then. I know, but I want to stop by the shop to see Metcalf and Stratton. Well, will you be late? I don't know. Maybe not. It depends. On what, dear? It depends on how long it takes to figure out a simple idea. Gentlemen, why shouldn't we branch out into something else besides making jewelry boxes? Well, here's our chance. It's in line with what we're doing. A tag. A shipping tag. A tag that won't pull off if someone gives it more than a cross look. Well...  The three of us will make up our minds that we're not going to get up until we've got the answer. Can't we do it tomorrow? My wife expects me home. She has an awful temper. We don't leave this office until we work it out. All right. Here's an old-type shipping tag. Look at it and study it. If you want to keep peace with your wife, Metcalf, figure out how to make a shipping tag that'll stay put. I've let it's past midnight. Well, I think of what my wife is going to do to me. We've figured out a hundred things that won't work. Parchment costs too much. Metal costs even more. Metal eyelets around the hole and the tag would tear through even quicker than the cord does. It's such a simple thing. Why can't we find the answer? Uh, heavy paper? No, I won't do the string which still pulls through. What's stronger than a piece of paper? Two pieces of paper. Very funny, very funny. Wait a minute. That's not so funny. That's what I meant. Two pieces of paper are stronger than one and three pieces would be three times as strong. Why can't we do this? Come here. Look at this tag. Why can't we take a round patch of heavy paper, a round patch with a hole in the center, take it and paste it over the hole in the shipping tag, paste one on each side. That would give us triple strength. Oh, no. Why not? It's, uh... Well, it sounds too simple. A thick paper washer, both sides. There's something wrong with it. What? Well, I don't know. Well, there's nothing wrong with it. Metcalfe, get hold of a machine tool, man. Have him design a cutting press that'll shape the washers. Then build a machine. Build a dozen of them. Now, wait a minute, Mr. Denison. Hold in the reins. This company has just been getting by as it is. We haven't a penny surplus. Where are we going to get money to design and build the machines? Tell me, where? How much money have you got, Stratton? Coffee at home. With ten cents to spare for tobacco. Metcalfe? Well, I guess I've got about... $5,000? Good. Get it. Get it tomorrow. I want you to come into partnership with me on this deal. We'll get this tag patented at once. We'll start up a new concern. Call it anything you like. As far as that goes, Denison and company will be all right with me, but... Well, my wife... Well, your wife's going to be mad at you not getting home anyway, isn't she? I am. All right. If you invest your money with me, all that you can do about it is be good and mad. So, what's the difference? No. It's a deal. Main for New York. Order. Afternoon, sir. For New York. Remember me? Can't say that I do, sir. I came in with you from New York the other day. Yes, sir?  All right. Well, try these this trip. What's that? A bundle of shipping tags. I got plenty of those. Oh, not like these. They're something special. Put one on that valise there. Now, go ahead, tie one on. Yes, sir. She's all tied on.  All right. Dog gone. Try again. Dog gone again. Pretty strong, isn't it? It sure stays put.  Yes, sir. They sure do. Here's a whole package of direction labels just like the one on the bag. Use them yourself. And give them to the other porters. Pass these tags along the line all the way between here and New York. See that the boys in New York get something to use on the western hall. Show them around. And tell them that if they want any more, the address is the Denison Company Boston Mass. I'm glad to see you. Come in, come in. Close the door. Hope I'm not disturbing you. Of course not. Seem to be doing pretty well. Oh, we are. This business has been growing like a corn stalk in August, spreading out all the time, making all kinds of boxes now, shipping labels, gum labels, wrappings, everything that goes on the outside of what's inside. That's wonderful. We've got branch offices in New York, St. Louis, even in Chicago. It's even better. How have things been going with you? All fine. Fine. Tremendous. Matter of fact, I'm going to Switzerland next month to settle all the details of my watch deal. Oh, that sounds exciting. Oh, yes. It's a gigantic undertaking. But, well, at the moment of life, I find I've slightly overextended myself. I was wondering if you possibly might be able to let me have a few hundred dollars to pay for my steamer passage. Just a temporary thing you understand. I'll probably cable you to the money the day I arrive in Surrey. Well, three hundred will be enough. Oh, plenty, plenty. Of course you can spare more. Might be a slip up with my letters of credit. Four hundred dollars. Wonderful. And let us know how you make out. Oh, don't worry about me. I won't. Well, I'll be going. Nice business you have here. Small, but just right for me, Aaron. Just right. What's taking you so long, Lydia? We'll be late for the theater. I'm sorry, darling. I've been rushing like a mad woman. It's this new hat. I had such a time getting it to sit straight. Well, do you like it? It's beautiful. And so are you. That's no way for an old married man to talk on his wedding anniversary. Well, let me see how you look. Turn around. Well, how do the years fit? There's been an improvement. The patient has a chance. The patient's doing fine. He's had good care. Oh, Lydia, every, everything we have, the business, our home, this thing called happiness that we've come to know, it's been because of you. You've always stood with me. Sometimes you were the only one with me. That's because the prettiest girl in Brunswick made a mighty sensible choice. Thank you. I've got a present for you. Take a look. Oh. Well, you never did get an engagement ring from me. It's a little late. Oh, life. It's perfectly beautiful. It looks so luscious, so rich. Oh, it's magnificent. Well, I never thought I'd hear you rave about a simple bit of jewelry. Oh, darling, I'm not talking about the ring. I'm talking about the box. Thanks to the inspiration of men like Elyphola Denison and thanks today to its companies, the inventors, engineers, and designers, America's packaging industry is one of the nation's largest. The men of this industry and all industry continue to share the privilege that was Elyphola Denison's, the opportunity to experiment, to venture, and thereby serve their fellow citizens an essential right of freedom. Thanks to Cornel Wild and the Cavalcade players for tonight's story, and now Bill Hamilton speaking for the DuPont Company. Once you are grown up, you have just 32 teeth. It's up to you to make them last as long as you can. Years ago, when a tooth started to give trouble, the usual thing was to have it taken out. Traveling dentists used to go around, out in the country anyhow, in wagons. They set up a chair in the public square and pulled a tooth for 50 cents. And sometimes they carried a banjo player along to raise a racket when the patient howled. There are some people to this day who have a tooth extracted if it begins to ache. This is changing for the better, however, thanks to the splendid educational work of the schools, the dental societies, and your local dentists. Nowadays, more people have their teeth fixed instead of having them removed. You enjoy food more with your own teeth, and your health may be improved since bad teeth are the cause of many disabling diseases. We know now it's better to keep your own teeth as long as possible. Preventive dentistry is far wiser in the long run. One of your dentist's best aids in this preventive work is the x-ray. DuPont and other companies have spent years in improving dental x-ray films. These films make it possible for your dentist to x-ray your teeth and tell you what he finds in a matter of minutes. When your dentist suggests an x-ray, he's placing a great scientific invention at your service. It helps him to do the best job he can to help you. The small cost will be repaid many times over in longer life for your teeth, perhaps even longer life for you yourself. DuPont x-ray films, DuPont x-ray chemicals, both aids to your good health, are among the DuPont company's better things for better living through chemistry. Next week, the star of the DuPont Cavalcade will be Ray Milland. Our play, Sir Gallowhead in Manhattan, tells the moving story of Dr. Marion Sims, one of America's great surgeons and humanitarians. Be sure to listen. Tonight's Cavalcade was written by Irv Tunic and Phil Lewis. Music was composed by Arden Cornwell and conducted by Donald Voorhees. The program was directed by John Zoller. This is Cy Harris speaking. Don't forget next week, Ray Milland on the DuPont Cavalcade of America, which comes to you from the Belasco Theater in New York and is sponsored by the DuPont Company of Wilmington, Delaware, makers of better things for better living through chemistry. Stay tuned to your NBC stations for the latest election returns. It is now 26 minutes past 8 o'clock in New York. This is Robert Trout speaking from NBC's election headquarters. In the House of Representatives, the Democrats have won 72 seats, all except 10 of these 72 in the South. The Republicans have won 11 seats and are leading in two other districts. 218 seats are needed for a majority in the House of Representatives. In the Senate, the Democrats have definitely elected five senators and are leading in the race for six others in addition to those five definite ones. The Republicans have not won any Senate seats definitely yet, but are in the lead for three other seats in the Senate. Altogether, the Democrats must win 18 to maintain their control. The Republicans must win 20 to win control. In the race for the governors, the Democrats have elected three governors and are leading in four other states. The Republicans have elected one governor and are leading in two other states. The total's there for the governor's 18 to the Democrats leading in definite six for the Republicans leading in definite. A few details now, though the returns are too scattered to indicate anything at all yet. Early returns from the highly important state of Connecticut shows the Democrats leading in all three races, Senator William Benton, 46,000, Prescott Bush, the Republican candidate, 35,000. Senator Brian McMahon, the Democrat, 47,000, Joseph Talbot, the Republican candidate, 32,000. Democratic Governor Chester Bowles, 87,000, Republican Representative and candidate John Davis Lodge, 72,000, the Democrats leading in Connecticut. Very early returns. In Ohio, returns for Senator from only 43 of Ohio's election places give Senator Taft, 55,000, Joseph Ferguson, 3,200. Those are very scattered returns. Of course, we'll have more definite results as the evening goes on. But so far, that is the top of the election results across the country. And across the country, we are finding the reasons why Election Day 1950 is seeing a record off here of vote. In Goshen, Indiana, Charles Howard arrived at the voting place today in an ambulance. His leg had been amputated after an auto accident last week. He was not allowed, but not my vote. In Rochester, New York, James Hard showed up to cast a ballot. And it was the 85th time Mr. Hard had done just that. The nation's oldest Civil War veteran at the age of 109, Mr. Hard voted the first time in 1864 at Nashville, Tennessee for Abraham Lincoln. At the other end of the scale is Miss Aphrodite Fenalis, who voted today at the age of 20 in New York where the minimum voting age is 21. But Miss Fenalis had the final say. She showed election officials a person becomes of age for voting purposes the day before the anniversary of his birth. Miss Fenalis will be 21 tomorrow. Gosh, she said I'm getting old. This is Lockwood Doty, and that's the election news to now. This is NBC, the national broadcasting company.


Welcome to the metal voice once again on the show Tim Ripper Owens. Oh, I'm back back for the attack Oh, wait, that's docking isn't it the sinner rides again. Yes. I am center rides again It should have been called Ripper rides again. That's what it should have been called. I'm talking to Ken now That's it. That's going to my contract September 29th V&A Palm Records Tim Ripper Owens on vocals AJ Mills on guitar Tony Newton on bass Sean elk. I'm not sure if I pronounce elk properly on drums and of course KK Downing on guitar as well. All right, the album's coming out very soon Ripper, I guess my first question is before we get into the album, how will the live shows come across with the fans? What's the feedback so far? It's been unbelievable. I mean, I think if anybody's read the reviews or saw anything on it's been incredible I Think it's always funny when I read someone was they were shocked that it was as good as it was But I think I think what they're shocked at is, you know, we have pretty good pretty big production pyro The screens. I mean, it's a it's a great show It's a costly show and it's a great show, you know, but we've We've been on fire. We've gotten better with with every show as you would I mean, you know coming off the gate out of the gate like that here a new New lineup than doing it, but it's been really really great. I can't you know, I've actually sang as good as I'm saying I'm singing as good as I've sang on my whole lives at this moment now next week. I might not be so let's look at this I'm almost 56. I might just go Toilet, but I've been on fire, man I've been sounding I've just had total control and it's a lot of fun. We're having a lot of fun up there You know, it's kind of like you revisited your priest ears, right? That's what it's coming down to right? Yeah, you know, it's funny is Uh The classic priest songs have always been an easier song for me to sing than my own So it's kind of funny, you know, I mean even KK's priest songs are are much more they're the more difficult songs in the setlist to sing than the classic priest songs But what's great about doing the priest songs is I sing them Like me, you know, I mean, that's the great thing about doing it but it's they're just a little bit easier to sing but it's it's uh You know, I had five years. I've said in interviews that I wasn't singing is great and then for the past year I've just gotten it back full on all of a sudden and uh, it's been pretty good the most So the most comments are some of the most interesting comments that I'm seeing is A lot of people a lot of fans want to integrate your priest era Into the set list. I think there's one or two songs, right? But they want to see more of that Are you getting that vibe from everyone? Well, we knew we'd get that vibe and we wanted to do that right out of the gate, but The the problem with us out of the gate was we were doing festivals and on our own shows So you have to make a set list that's kind of Adaptable to everybody, you know, and I think I think eventually when we start touring and touring and doing our own shows There's two things that's going to happen. I would I hope we had one or two more of my ear I think one on one has to be in the set list. I think burning out Two songs that have to be in a set list. It'd be nice to do cathedral spires because that's one that fans ask for the most But I think we're going to be obviously adding more of kk's priest in I mean, that's we have six songs in their knob kk's priest and We'll be releasing two new videos soon. So we'll add two more in and we'll probably add another one from the first record Another one from the new record and so I think that's what's going to start going in there as well But I there's no doubt people want to hear it. I mean Judas Priest ignores it and ignored it and have you know Act like I was never in the band. I mean Which is It's fine. It makes my solo touring and kk's priest touring all that more exciting for people because at least they can go hear it And I yeah, I think that's that's something but I had that conversation with ken from the start Uh, I would have liked to have seen more of my era in there But he explained it by saying, you know, we have to you know, and it's really it is Festivals are a whole different animal than your own shows because you're you have different people there for different bands So you need to do one that you can suck all these different people into your setlist Like I'm hearing a lot of you know, I see a couple of people I'm probably more in the minority saying this is a tribute band. It's a tribute band I mean, what do you say to somebody who says that and I know what you would say But tell me what would you say to someone who says this is a tribute band? Well, it makes no sense. First of all, it's a stupidest comment. That's I mean listen And you've seen these comments, right? You've seen these comments Well, I gotta be honest since we've been playing live. I've hardly ever seen so I don't see them much anymore Because now the proof is in the pudding. It's like well, this yeah, this is but listen, um We're not talking about the sharpest tools in the shed with people on the internet. I mean people There's the stupidest comments I've ever read on there and I come back to a lot of these people with funny comments and I'm sorry.   You can look at most those people in life and go You have a tough road. I'm sorry.    It's like dude It's so great to to watch the response from our concerts, you know It's been it's been Overwhelming, I mean the response to our shows and that's what the proof is in the pudding And I don't mind when people don't like this. You don't have I don't like a lot of stuff, you know I don't like stuff But when it's when they don't like it and they say it like a tribute band it's like I mean kk's the founding member of judas priest. I was in judas priest uh This is we're half the set now is our own songs and And three quarter the set is going to be our own songs now. I mean it's it makes no sense, but You know, they have their opinions and it's great. You get to have it.  That's funny Yeah, all right fair enough. Um The new album We called it the the ripper rides again. No the sinner rides again Um, tell me about the recording process So you went was this done remote or was this actually you went to the studio to record your vocals? But everything was recorded england except my vocals. I I had a hard time talking kin and to let me record my vocals here at my studio That's just how I do it now and I get the best out of it a lot of the times Uh if the material is good, um You know like my solo ep Return to death row that was recorded here, but I had to talk to me and I said kin listen I could be here. We could be on video. I can record it uh I could come out here and have coffee and and go back and you know, it's and it really I could tell I could tell the difference between from the first record. I mean this record the vocals Uh are are way more passionate and I think it's because I spent a lot of time on them way more aggressive Way more versatile But I had to talk him in because kin's old school and he's like, no, I don't know You got to be here to do it. I'm like come on kin, you know, let me just do it here So finally one day I remember I got people. I was like, hey, you can start recording there. I'm like, yes All right, but everything else is recorded there um uh, you know drums uh Sean's drumming on this new records is you could you could tell everybody Is themself now that he gets really a band and the unit everybody's Branched out, you know me. I've had a 30 year career. So there's not a lot of branching out I could do at this point. I'm I sing like me. I am me and that's what you get But Sean had even more to prove I think because it's like because he's so good and uh You could really hear it on this kin really let him go a little more on this and become himself So, okay, musically when you compare the first album to this album, what do you think has changed or stayed the same? How would you compare it? well, I think uh I think it's a cohesiveness is better I think the sounds have a more cohesive the song sound to have a more cohesive I think they even with all the musical changes in the songs It all runs great. It sounds better. I I The first record was exactly what we needed. It was a little more old school The sound was more old school. Everything about it was was a classic sound This one has a little more punch to a little more aggressiveness. The sound is is absolutely unbelievably good um I think you could just tell it's a real Now it's like this is just we've moved into something even better Which are last interview I did he said did you did you have a lot of pressure on it? I'm like, I don't think I didn't have any pressure all the pressure's on kin. So um, I was like I I don't think we did. I think we knew what we had to do and we knew what we are as a band but I think it's it's uh It's progression And it's just I just love it. I mean, I just think it sounds great I mean the songs like wash away your sins is so epic to end the record with and I love that AJ gets to sing the beginning of it at first. I was mad. I'm like, yeah, you took my I I didn't know who was singing that part. There's no reference that that's yeah We wanted to do something different and add like a little character thing here and there And we let AJ sing a couple times because he's so good anyways and sometimes Like that part. I didn't sound a whole lot different with me doing it When I first did it But what made it great was it sounded like this different voice and then I you know, he's like You know, then I come in with and now We must feel the pain but it comes from him doing that demons from a distance and then There's so much things on this record like that that we branched off and did and uh that song is I love I love that strike of the viper right in your face I Love the ending song wash away your sins. I think it's just epic and musically and vocally. It's so good Yeah, you do a great job. No question. I like time six time six six Uh You know throughout the whole album you kind of got these little growls happening Sort of like they make a little guest appearance on every song little growls here and there or a little spoken word Yeah, I do a lot. I got this weird thing where I do Especially when I'm recording myself because here's what happens is, uh I You can use my vocals or not. I give them a lot of vocals.  So what I do is Like there'll be songs words start and I'll be like into the end of the verse like a Like most people in this real studio would be doing that with with you know technology But I'm so old school and used to doing stuff myself that I do a lot of stuff Just you know, it's kind of like when Judas Priest recorded British steel and there's Whatever song it wasn't had the cutlery going down Yeah, I mean you used to do it old school. I still record like metal gods That's what it was. Yeah metal gods at the end of middle gods with cutlery I do a lot of stuff and I overdo it and they could use it or not, you know and I and uh I love I just I feel that I just love the vocals on this record. I love what I had to work with I love what kin gave me to work with and I took it to a different level for myself to just Put a lot of character. Listen, you know that we grew up with and I grew up with My singers that I like growing up with was people like Ronnie James Dio Rob David Bowie John Oliva people who sang in characters and told a story and And whether the songs are heavy or not, I still like to do and unfortunately I can sing Really heavy and really mellow and really light and really high and really low so I can kind of do all that Yeah, um, did you uh lend a hand? I know KK likes to write the songs. He's sort of in his in his sort of Mindset that he wants to write all the songs. Did you get to add your own thing? Did you get to do a little bit of songwriting this time around? I really didn't I mean I got dad I got to change some vocal lines around and some and and sing them How I would want to sing him He would give me the idea then I would sing them how how I thought it would go Which a lot of times were more aggressive than than what it might have was originally Um a lot more high notes than were probably there. It's funny There's freaking after you hear it back after you're in the studio Then you hear all the songs like man, I sang a lot of high notes just out of nowhere. They're everywhere and uh But you know, I understand it because kin's got a lot to prove To the fans and to himself. He's like I we've said this probably in the past. I've said it that kin's Been writing music for 50 years with with the guys. I think everybody who listens to like I still said to see before I love that they Say that kind of sounds reminds me of parts of judas priest. I'm like How about it reminds you of kk downing because That's that's who's writing the stuff. It's kk downing who wrote the judas priest songs. I mean so But he I understand it, you know, I got to do that with my solo record and my other records and But I love that I could be I could just come in there and be ripper owens and and sing it how I want to sing it, you know Um, how does for from my perspective I listen to the studio songs and I see when you guys play them live It just seems like they translate even better live than they do on record. They're meant to be played live They're very unthemic Am I correct in this? I mean do you think that they really come across great live and people really enjoy them? I think they do and what's really funny about that now. Listen when you have a songwriter like kk He's always in his career thought of that, right? He's the old school guy that thinks about writing songs in the studio That are going to be sung live Uh, they're they're like I said earlier. They're tougher to sing than the classic priest songs. They're tougher to sing um But I've always prided myself on singing songs live like they were sung in a studio. I don't like singers that Don't that change the songs live or can't sing them live or Never sing the same version live. I love this, you know, ronnie deo sang them live like they sang them in a studio I love to do that and these songs are are great to do that with and it is crazy. I mean we're doing One more shot at glory in the crowd singing at the festivals too. That's what i'm getting at that's on even even the Rep uh the whirlwind. What's it called? Uh, rape the whirlwind reap the whirlwind. That's right and and you know brothers of the road and and you know singing Raise your fist.  That's gonna I Fanned you better be spot on pretty soon because I'm not always going to sing these songs this good So we're I'm in a moment right now. Let me have my moment.  Everybody knows Was it released first? Was that the first son? I was released either way great The guitar work is incredible the dual harmonies on that song are just like sort of off the charts Hey, what's about that? That hasn't been released yet. Nobody's heard. No, nobody's heard it. Sorry The funny thing about that is when I record that at home that song's really high Well, that was the background vocals that I gave that wasn't my main vocal line I gave him a regular verse and then I gave him a low one to harmonize with it And then I gave him a high one to go and then I got it back I'm like, holy crap. You used that high vocals as my main one. I was like, whoa, that's gonna be fun to sing live But just to add the guitar harmonies. They're like on steroids.  I just so I guess people haven't heard that uh strike of the viper A little bit of growls like we were talking about right I love my favorites. It's like two and a half minute song. That's just right in your face That's gonna be one of our videos coming out pretty soon and uh I love that song but I got it. I was like and I think aj wrote that song with with ken and uh I love it. I think it's uh, it's fantastic Reap the world win which which everybody knows by now because that was released either as a live performance or as a video I don't remember one more shot at glory. That's the super catchy one off the album Was that released as well? I think that was released right the first one released Yeah, super catchy, uh, you know again fits in right in with the first album of you know, that sort of style I'm 66 now we're getting into a sort of a little more orchestrations at the beginning Uh a little again some more growls him 66 him 66 is What's cool about it is it's got like a choir thing going on So yeah, it starts to get in a little bit of epic thing. The vocals are all over the place The center rides again, not the reaper rides again, but the center rides again. That's another cool track. Yeah Very catchy as well keeper of the graves Now we're getting into a little more epic territory, correct thoughts on that one Yeah, it's it the record really ends with some big epic songs and And some mellow vocals and then the heavy vocals. What's nice is a lot of these songs go from these pretty nice mellow vocals to just Vocals that smash you right in your face, you know, so that one that one in the keeper of the graves is like that and then pledge your souls It has that kind of beginning like raise your fist, you know, oh Oh, you can hear it. It's like um It's a great tune.  Would you scream out loud? Well, it's pretty big, you know And wash away your sins. You got that flanger on the guitar is literally slow mix kind of creepy At the same time brings you back to the 70s, you know that chorus flanger on the guitar sound, right? It's it's something straight off Rock a roller or something, man. It's Oh and I said about that somebody said it to me. I think it was a friend of mine I was playing up for and I said My girlfriend I said Listen and they said, oh my god. It's so sad That like the beginning like they were sad from the beginning of the Guitar just his guitar player like it makes me want to cry and then And then aj comes in singing and then I come in singing and they're like, oh my god now you're making me sad It's kind of got but the verses of wash away your sins are my favorite verses.  I just love it, man That's a it's a great great song Tim, you know, you've always been a guest on so many bands. You so many projects Do you feel finally like, you know, I got a home now in a sense like I'm part of something now, you know, something more constant Well, I do I do I actually You know, I'm kind of lucky because I feel at home doing solo touring and stuff And and putting that solo EP out made me go. Here's a home as well. I got myself a home I can because I chore it solo So now that I have a solo EP and solo record that'll come out But you know, this is the one that you want to Make it it's hard nowadays. First of all, the show we take on a road is so damn expensive that Ken's not going to make it a cheesy show and a low budget show and he's just not going to show up in jam Like I would solo So it's hard to probably constantly do this but Yeah, I mean I I said from the start when I did KK's priest. That's what I'm fully on. I mean But what I would love to, you know, I still get to go out and do some three trimmer shows and do my solo shows But my main priority is KK's priest to me. It's like your gig now. That's your gig I mean, I think that's the perfect fit for you too, man. It's it's finally, you know, for after a long time I guess, right? Yeah, it's great. And I'm in listen Uh, fortunately I make good money when I do it the other way. So that's the best part about going and doing solo touring and doing solo records Um, you know financially, I don't know if anything will be any different But I would love I just love to get on these stages in this show and be in this band and be a unit and They're big stages and big shows and big production and you know, there's 16 of us out on the road with the crew I mean, it's a big deal and uh It's great to do it and it's great that I'm in the Best shape and top form vocally of my career and and uh, I think so too Uh, what about the us in canada? What are we talking here? Are we talking about dates? That the goal is that's what these First five or six festivals and shows were about they were a showcase to show what we got and what we are and what this shows about so now uh, again, you know financially it's Expensive to tour and it's hard nowadays I mean, you don't hear people bitching about it all the time and ken's not gonna But they know more than you do tim the people on the internet They know more than you do and they're telling you what to do, right? Well, that's when they keep saying get here get it Well, we want to get everywhere and that's what these shows are for and and uh, You know now tko is the agent so the offers will come in but even when offers come in and it might be great It's like we we financially still can't go there because our production's too expensive. You know, I mean um But they're coming in now numbers have went up Everybody sees what we're about that. This is a band. It's serious and it's good and we have fun um That's the big thing. I think people can see too is it's We put a lot into the show so our goal. Yeah, our goal is to play everywhere You know our goal is to go and tour the world And uh, so that's what the we're starting to do now these these shows. We're all about that, you know um And now you guys you guys compliment Judas Priest. You're not like taken away from priest I find I would go see priest and I'd see kk I wouldn't I wouldn't have to pick because I think they're two different entities in a sense It's definitely two different entities. I mean we do, you know, we'll do Probably less priests classic priest songs as we go on because we're gonna be, you know, right? Like I said, we did six songs of kks priest now We're probably doing eight songs on the uk run. Maybe we'll probably doing 10 you 10 kks priest songs or more when we start going Which not I know people think it's another Judas Priest, but it's not it's it's k I know that name and people don't like I still if you don't like the name I understand it but to get so mad you wouldn't listen to the band and you Put us down because you don't like the name. I mean It's I think it's fine. I don't see anything wrong with the name. I don't understand why people are so tight about it We're not reinventing the wheel We happen to capitalize to go out and do it on something and you if we want us, you know We have to do it. But anyways, there's Judas Priest and Ross were two different things. We'll play a whole different catalog Um And that's that's how it is Hopefully we will play more songs off of our era, but there isn't it's you got the Judas Priest And I'm looking forward to their new record coming out. I can't wait, you know robb's singing great and uh I'm glad they decided to have two guitar players and uh, I think it's gonna be fantastic All right, man, that's pretty much it anything else you want to add I'm just thinking it's funny that they went to one guitar player. I still think it's a funny thing Well, no, they went to one guitar player and then they said wait a second. No, no, we're gonna go to two guitars, right? I'm gonna go to uh I've been talking ingbating to going into a band with no members at all and he won't do it but I I said we should Do a band with no guitar players and just I'm gonna three bass players three bass players and uh, maybe like a keyboard is I'm I think it's fantastic. I think I think priest's new record. It's gonna be fantastic Like I said robb sounding so good now and uh and everybody's got it. Listen, you got old school heavy metal You got Judas Priest kickers priest maiden playing top of the game You got all these tours out there all old school metal fans and And fans of real heavy metal concerts should be pretty happy I agree. I agree on that note. We're at 30 minutes Tim look forward to seeing you in Montreal, Canada next time you're around Hopefully you guys will get around. What do you owe me again when I come there? I owe you. I think chinese food or something. I can't remember what it is now. It's something chinese food I can't remember you owe me something. So Some kind of food I think so A big bag of chinese food, but you wanted indian, right? Maybe it was indian food. I can't remember Oh, I love indian food. That's my favorite, but I don't need quite as I'll just take a low-carb shake Okay, I'll get you one of those One of those. What do they call them? Those those those shakes there you could uh, you can buy at the pharmacy Yeah Yeah, it's kind of like that like insure insure That's kind of I'm old. I mean you're with me. So you got we could share an insure together All right, man. Talk to you soon. Good luck. Okay. We'll see you soon, buddy. Good see you


Namaskaram Sadhguru, you said that if we have imbibed the very essence of Inner Engineering program, our very presence can be transformational. Can you please explain further on this? I think a few days ago in the same one of these darshan's I spoke about it, maybe then dwell on it. I said, Chambhavi Mahamudra is not a practice. It is like we have a Dhyanalinga temple. Somebody goes and sweeps the temple because there's no other ritual to maintain the Dhyanalinga. Somebody sweeps, somebody cleans, somebody maintains the atmosphere. That's all. Are they doing something for the Dhyanalinga? No. They're just doing something for the floor, the atmosphere, stuff like that. So once you have Chambhavi Mahamudra, this is how it is. It is a certain consecration. I've always been saying this, the easiest consecration that you can do is a living human being. It's not for nothing that human being is the peak of evolution on this planet. It's the best material you can find. But the only problem with the human being is the day when they come for the initiation day, they're blown away and they're, you know, tears of ecstasy flowing. Within a few hours or a few days, depending on who they are, they'll make a u-turn. Not everybody, but a whole lot of them. Usually, the most derogatory term that they use against me is, oh, we have to... this was wonderful, but we have to get back to normal life. This is horribly insulting. They're saying to be peaceful, to be joyful, to be blissful is abnormal. To be miserable, to be worried, to be anxious, to be a lump of nothing is normal. Very derogatory towards me. So because of the silly ideas of their normality, they will make u-turns. They've invested in misery. See, it took me a long time to realize this. When it first happened to me that I sat like this and I burst into ecstasy, I thought this is it. I will make the whole world ecstatic. Thirty-eight, thirty, almost thirty-nine years ago now. I made a plan in two-and-a-half years' time, I will make the whole world ecstatic. Because who will not want it?  I was twenty-five and I had hit a gold mine and I knew I can do this. Because you don't have to do nothing. If you simply sit here without messing with your mind, you will become ecstatic. So I thought, who will not want it? Such a simple thing and so fantastic. Who will not want it? Well, thirty-nine years, slowly realizing that people have such investments in their misery. Even if you show them an ecstatic way to live, if they get up and walk, they want to take this cushion or even the chair with them and walk. Yes, when I initially thought the Inner Engineering programs, they're just wild. I'm not dressed like this, I'm in a faded denim and a t-shirt, talking wild. My language was not cultured, I could say anything. Walking up and down and you know, announce a four-day class and sometimes it's going to be six days, sometimes it goes into twelve days, any which way. But they didn't understand a word that I was talking about. Even now they don't. But their lives are transformed because that's the only way it works. Nobody is getting transformed because of the words.  You have to tell them something. See, even this is darshan, that means I must just sit, you must just look. But if I just sit here, you will go crazy. What is he doing? He's just sitting, what are we looking? So I have to talk. Otherwise, no need for talking. See, if I go into the villages, if I just walk in, everybody bursts into tears because they don't have much value for all these too many words. So, we have consecrated you with Shambhavi. If you live it, you don't have to advertise. Do Inner Engineering, do Inner Engineering, every day to your wife, to your husband, to your children, please do it for me, do it for Yoga. Oh, go ahead.  Because they're not seeing anything. You're seeing wonderful things, but they have to see wonderful things, isn't it? When they see you, they must feel, wow, I want to be like this. If that happens, transformation happens. So, because it's a consecration, in a way, what we are trying to do is create walking temples. You know, if you build a stone temple, it's only in one place, you can't take it anywhere. Well, the Analinga, if you're willing, because it's a non-physical form, it's available everywhere, but that needs a certain level of receptivity. So, that's why we thought we will create millions of walking temples.  People will come to you in a certain way. You don't have to preach anything, you don't have to advertise, you don't have to put, have it inner engineering tattooed on your forehead. None of those things are needed. You simply be truly, truly, truly that you are living constantly responding in a limitless way, without any sense of boundary.  Don't do anything, simply sit there, people will get transformed, not just people. Plants will respond, animals will respond, everything around you, even inanimate things will reverberate differently. One hundred percent, I'm telling you. Well, there are a lot of textbook scientists who will immediately say, oh, he's spreading pseudoscience. Well, their idea of science is rudimentary. Real scientists will never say such things, because they know what they have explored is a tiny speck, what is unexplored is limitless. So, it doesn't matter who says what. If you just live with these two things, you didn't understand anything else, you just have to keep the atmosphere clean. See, right now there is the Analinga temple. However powerful it may be, if you put filth in front of the temple, even if it's very powerful, people will not go there. You keep it in a certain way, people will go. So your practice is just that, cleaning up the place and keeping removing the cobwebs every day. That's it.  That's why we shifted to Shambhavi, because I didn't see people have neither the perseverance, nor determination, nor commitment to really work to build themselves up to another level, because that's a lot of work. Kriya Yoga is a lot of work. This is why we came to Shambhavi Mahamudra. Mudra means it's already there. You just experience it, you live it, that's all. You don't have to do it, but just daily removing of cobwebs, cleaning up the floor. This is all your work, rest will happen.


Hello and welcome to the session. Let us understand the following question which says, if x and y are connected parametrically by the equation given without eliminating the parameter find dy by dx, x is equal to cos theta minus cos tau theta and y is equal to sin theta minus sin tau theta. Now let us proceed on to the solution. The given equations are x is equal to cos theta minus cos 2 theta and y is equal to sin theta minus sin 2 theta. Now let us find the derivatives of x and y with respect to theta. Therefore, dx by dx theta is equal to minus sin theta plus 2 sin 2 theta and dy by dx theta is equal to cos theta minus 2 cos 2 theta. dx by dx theta can be written as 2 sin 2 theta minus sin theta. Therefore, dy by dx is equal to dy by dx theta divided by dx by dx theta which is equal to dy by dx theta is cos theta minus 2 cos 2 theta divided by 2 sin 2 theta minus sin theta which is equal to dy by dx theta minus 2 cos 2 theta divided by 2 sin 2 theta minus sin theta. If you have understood this question, that is all for the session. Bye and have a nice day.


Over these past couple of weeks John Harbaugh the Ravens head coach has certainly been under a lot of heat and scrutiny when it's come to these two-point conversion calls and Especially the one against the Packers Because there was a lot of people especially myself who disagreed with actually going for it But like I said before my biggest problem wasn't even that they went for it It was how they went for it and that's the play that they decided to run with to go for it But if we just back up to them actually making the decision to go for it I know myself. I've been somebody that's constantly said that that's that's Harbaugh making that decision That's him. That's making a decision. That's his call. That's him saying. Hey, I want to go for two But the Ravens yesterday they put out a video and This video captured the moment before the Ravens actually went for the two-point conversion and This video showed John Harbaugh walking up and down the sideline talking in the headset saying hey, you are you guys? Think we should go for it. It showed him talking to guys like Tyler Huntley or Mark Andrews I think Latavius Murray was over there too some different offensive players saying hey, you guys think we should go for it and Those guys said yeah Let's try to win it because Harbaugh asked him a you think we should go for the win or should we play for overtime? Should we kick a field going play for overtime? They were like yeah, yeah, let's let's go for the win and that's of course the team keep it clean version anyway So this video captured what a lot of people have said about John Harbaugh That Harbaugh is a players coach players love him. He respects his players He's cool with his players. He involves his players in a lot and That's all great stuff Love that coach Harbaugh. He is a player's coach the only Times when you only hear it like whenever Ravens they draft a sign of player and that player leaves You never really hear them talk bad about Harbaugh like Harley ever Because they love Harbaugh. They love the organization. They love the team. They love the culture They love just everything about the rate. They love it. I only heard like definitely one and I think maybe two people talk bad about them And they all will know every thing remember that they squashed it though. So they good. But anyway 99% of the players when they leave they always got good things to say about Harbaugh and just the Ravens organization as a whole We know it's a great organization. It's a great team Very fun team to be a fan of you know, they got a lot of drama But anyway and Harbaugh like we met him before a couple of times met him before once in 2013 after the Dolphins game and Ravens won they were they won that Dolphins game down here And then we met him another time in 2018 at Ravens training camp He was very very nice very respectful and he Very engaging. He even complimented the whatever camera we had back then Really nice really nice We even had the even was willing to do the clip for the the intro of the old videos where he said engraving vids He ain't know what he engraving vids was about he probably still don't know what it is now and that's fine but Harbaugh's nice guy. Nice guy But the video in the video where he was letting it be known Well, it was the Ravens led to be known to the world That a Harbaugh he asked him wasn't his decision. I Still didn't really feel like that changed much It just showed us something that we already knew we know Harbaugh loves his plate Like he'd be having them over for like cookouts and stuff and they always they go on field trips together and stuff Was a very nice coach very nice guy nice coach very interactive with the guys and stuff So that's that's great. He's not standoffish. Well, except for that time with him and air read They will they went there on the same team same locker room, but they ain't talking him. He's talking to him. I ain't talking to him but anyway But that video It to me it was still Harbaugh's decision and it just seemed like the video was sort of like damage control Because the Ravens they they've been seeing like the social media people have been seeing Like everything that's been being said about Harbaugh whether it be from people on Twitter whether people on YouTube or on Facebook or on Instagram or on whatever or in in articles or whatever or maybe on the news and I feel like they just they put that out there to be like You all were wrong This was the players that made this decision. So you all need to hush Shut it up wasn't even see all y'all thought it was Harbaugh wasn't even him the player said let's go but it just reminds me of a Kid and this kid wants to have a sleepover now this kid They really want to head asleep over and write their friends over. So when they asked dad Said dad and every every time that they've asked dad in the past before for a sleepover Dad says no No, I don't want all them kids I don't know what all your friends in my house y'all gonna mess up stuff. Nope. No sleepover. I don't want it. No But anytime in the past where this kid has asked mom hey mama I really want to invite my friends over for a sleepover mama has said yeah bring them on I'll make cookies for him. We can make rice Krispy treats. It'll be great. We can watch movies together We'll have a fun time. Yeah, bring them on come on So when that kid wants to have a sleepover in the future They've made the decision up in their mind. Hey, I want to have a sleepover. I want to have it this weekend I want to make this happen But I just need to have it officially confirmed confirmed. I've already made it up in my mind But I just I just want to I want a co-signer No, I'm not going to dad I'm gonna go to mom because mom is going to tell me yes. I know she's gonna tell me yes Hey, mom, can we have a sleepover? Oh, oh sure. No problem I knew it. I knew she was gonna say yes. That's why I asked her and not dad This is what this reminds me of what John Harbaugh did with the players This is a decision that I feel like he just he just knew he wanted he knew we wanted to go for two already He knew he wanted to go the decision was made But it does take a little bit of heat off of him with this video it takes a lot of heat off of him Because it makes it look oh, okay. Oh the players they okayed it. Okay. All right, we get it now and it's like It's like asking a kid Do you want to eat ice cream for dinner? What's the kid gonna see what you think the kids gonna say no? Only way they're gonna say no is if they do not like ice cream or They're allergic to ice cream and even if they're allergic ice cream if they like it They still say yes Hey, hey, you you wouldn't have ice cream for dinner. Oh Yes, you sure dad sure mom they're gonna say yes so I This video just it didn't do it for me It didn't do it didn't change anything It didn't make me have any different perception of anything that happened It just reiterated the fact that the for them to go through that process and For them to go through the process of what they did and this was with it with the video without the video for them to actually Send Tyler Hunley and the offense out there to so they could do that the fake snap All right, cool, whatever, but then you took a time out.  You had time to think about all that and That's the play that y'all came up with After having extra time to think that like that's the play that y'all came up with them. That was that was bad It was bad it was bad So I Mean, I'm sure there are more two-point conversions to come in the future I'm sure we'll see one in this bingles game I'm sure we'll see it in the Rams game. Sure. We'll see it in the Steelers game And I've seen people say man, it's almost like the Ravens don't have a healthy Justin Tucker but It is what it is, right? Yeah So that's that We'll see how the rest of this season goes We'll see that aggression from the Ravens and I think that like Now especially after the last three games. I don't think anybody is Expecting anything different when it comes to the Ravens being down if they're down by a touchdown and It's like a minute and change left. I Think everybody now is going to definitely expect for the Ravens to go for two But again, my my thing is Biggest issue this week with the Ravens going for two. I again, I don't think they should have went for two But okay, you're gonna go for two. All right, cool Mark Andrews, everybody knows everybody knows everybody My guy hemp who is a he said he's a defensive coordinator for the school he coaches for He said if if they flexed the tight end out wide At like the defenders today, they already looking at that like oh That that the radar goes off like oh, here we go Let's go But he said if you if you flex the tight end out wide and then on top of that Once you snap the ball the QP rolls out to the right to where the Titan is He said oh man. He said defenders are already clapping their hands because they just they're excited. They already know what's coming They already know what's on the way So my advice and I'm of course, no coach. What do I know? I'm just guy who talks about The Ravens games behind a camera. That's it. Nothing more. Nothing less but My advice to them would be All right, we know you're gonna go for it. It's expected like I don't think that Nobody has a doubting in mind now that the Ravens if they in this situation again, they're gonna go for two I've seen some people some very creative people though They they said that this is the Ravens way of actually tanking That the like what they this is their way of tanking and I was like, oh That's an interesting way to put it But then I thought about I was like whoa hold up now But Yeah But anyway And what my guy was saying when he said that let me just let me just read it So I can read it word for word because I don't want to mess anything up He said and I quote Okay, my phone just stopped acting okay, he said I Think he said in great when I just want to share my quick two cents about the situational football and the unnecessary two-point attempts With the game on the line. He said we are losing on purpose when I saw that I was like, huh? What then he said too many injuries no Super Bowl this year So Hobbs and ADC are tanking to get a mid first round draft pick Right now we would draft between 17 or 18, but it's not impossible to get higher Expect more stupid situational football with analytics as the scapegoat So when I saw that I was like whoa, but then I read it again a couple times over enough Then I thought about what the team has been doing and you know these injuries have taken a toll on them But I mean, I don't I don't Losing on purpose the Ravens Mmm, I would hope not and I don't think they are you never know, but I don't think they y'all That's just And I can understand that the reasoning behind why he may have thought that why he thinks that Yeah This is a bad taste in my mouth if that's what the case was but I Just We'll see how this whole thing turns out. But again, if you're gonna go for the two-point convergence, which we know you are Please have something better designed than that That's that's all we can ask at this point because we know what's gonna happen. We know what's gonna happen now But just please have something better designed than that And if you fail at it, okay, it'll be a better failure than what we saw against the Packers It's just my two cents. But again, what do I know? I'm yeah, anyway, so team keep it clean. I love y'all. I appreciate y'all. Oh And just like I hope the Ravens are not when it comes to making a playoffs this year You


Hello everyone. A bit of context about where this fits into ANZ, right in the middle, reliable services. So at least we hope they're reliable and pretty much they are. So the vocabulary widget is part of our offerings associated with search vocabulary in Australia. So let's get right into it. Here's an outline of the talk. I'm going to describe what problem this solves and what motivates the work that we've been doing on the vocabulary widget. A little bit of the history. Very brief overview of the current offerings and then go into some more details and then an invitation to you to go ahead and use it. So board context here is somewhat more general than what you've just been hearing about. This is the very board context of consuming a vocabulary and my colleague Joel Ben tells me I need more pictures so he's looking at this picture of vocabulary consumption which I hope you will enjoy later. Let's move on because text is actually better. Board context consuming a vocabulary more specifically concept selection. So the incorporation of a manual that is the human being selecting a concept, being able to do that within a service. Applications I'm sure you can think of data classification, validation, data validation, use in search fields etc etc etc. Very specifically we want to make it easy for web developers to get started with concept selection incorporated in their own services web forms. It is very much a get started but there's a lot of flexibility for you to go further so I'll show how that works a bit later on. A bit of history. The widget is something that we built some years ago to serve our own needs and it's something that we then opened up and made about more generally available. In particular it services research data Australia and not the portal but the back end of it which we call our registry, it's a metadata registry and in particular manual entry of metadata. That manual entry of metadata is drawn from two main vocabularies but three four. The main one is our own metadata schema which is an XML schema with CS that has some controlled vocabularies associated with it. So a number of the metadata elements have their values drawn from controlled vocabularies as an example of that. But also we use that are famous fields of research vocabulary as well and that's used extensively for subject entry. When you enter a record into research data Australia we ask you to provide some subject keywords and they're drawn from well we encourage FOR but you can also provide the SEO keywords and GCMD etc. We then subsequently released a controlled vocabulary widget the code which you could then use against three vocabularies the RIFCS vocabulary and the FOR and SEO vocabularies but what we've done is subsequently release research for vocabularies Australia and our partners have been madly publishing vocabularies in RVA and the widget is there and you can use it against any of the published vocabularies that are what we call widgetable of which there are almost 100 as of now. Let me show you some screenshots very quickly of our own internal use of the widget. So this is yeah if you use the metadata entry screens this should be familiar to you if not doesn't matter but there's just just some examples of how we use it ourselves. When you're defining a manually entering a collection in RDA there's a drop down here you see to select the type of collection data set software publication etc. and that drop down is published from one of the part of the controlled vocabularies for RIFCS. Similarly the subject type when you're entering subjects you can enter subjects from a number of different sources and that list of sources is also in the vocabulary and here's an example of actually entering a subject this also is driven by the vocabulary widget this is the FOR vocabulary and this is shown in tree mode and as you would expect the little plus signs to the letter of the keywords open up the next level down and there's three levels of vocabulary there. So if you're entering a field of research keyword you'll use the widget in tree mode at that point if you use if you're entering if instead of selecting FOR you'd select GCMD you'll have to type it in at least a few a few letters and this is now the widget in search mode and then you get a drop a drop down with some suggestions based on well not suggestions matches that against what you've typed in and then you click on the one that you want and it inserts it into the into the field for you. So that's how we consume vocabularies ourselves in our DA using the vocabulary widget. I want to just introduce what we are offering more broadly through the search vocabularies Australia and if you haven't seen it already I hope you check it out have a look there are over a hundred well over a hundred vocabularies published through RBA of which almost a hundred in this widgetable category and also if you don't if you think you might be interested in publishing through RBA but you're not quite ready to make it accessible to the world we have it we have a demo server as with RDA you can you can publish things try things out on a demo server. Vocabulary widget that's the main focus of this talk how do you find out about what is widgetable well you can use the browse facility and search facility in RBA and you will find that your browse or search results have this little icon that says widgetable that points you at the vocabulary that might be suitable for you to use. There's an example search there so all of these links you'll find in the presentation and you'll be able to download that after the session and try these links out or indeed try your own searches. We do embed the widget in every view page of every widgetable vocabulary so again another example that you can try later that is our own version of RIFCS in RBA and you'll see an example I've got a screenshot on the next on the next slide as well. We have a widget explorer which is a wizard that will generate both boilerplate and some or provide you with the boilerplate that you need and generate some customized code that you can use to get started with the widget and of course we have documentation and there's a link to the documentation pages as well there. A documentation will help you to get started with other modes of the widget but are not readily accessible through the widget explorer and help you to do further customizations. So the widget it's a selection widget it's for vocabularies that are published in RBA. There is JavaScript, a little JavaScript page that you link to and CSS and CSS. The CSS is particularly basic and feel free to do all sorts of fancy things with that or just not use it, use your own CSS if you prefer. The library is implemented using also using jQuery although we we've heard from some of our users that they don't like jQuery I can't understand why but apparently some people don't. I'm sorry about that but that seems to be a showstop for some people. So you embed links to the JavaScript and the CSS in your page and then you add a little bit of an extra little bit of JavaScript to invoke the widget and you select the vocabulary you want to use and the widget mode that you want to use. So what I've got here is a screenshot from a view page that shows an example of the widget and so if you do if you do come across a vocabulary that you like and you want to use that in my page you'll see already a button that you can press to get a sample code fragment to copy paste into your page and a link to the documentation and the link to the boilerplate code that you also need. There are some ground rules so this only works for vocabularies that we call widgetable which for now means a vocabulary that has linked data endpoints, linked data API endpoints which thanks to Simon in the SysVoc family of endpoints. So concepts and narrower and top concepts. Basically it means you publish your vocabulary in RVA and you check the checkboxes to import into Sesame and publish through SysVoc and then your vocabulary we will call that widgetable for you. However you might think that just because it's widgetable that it's going to work well in the widget and that's not the case you might be disappointed in some cases. Not all widgetable vocabularies will work in the widget and even if they do they might only work in certain of the modes. The basic rule is it has to be scoss. The SysVoc endpoints are scoss specific and we use them so we can't magically determine that you have a hierarchy from some other properties that you've invented. If it's scoss it will work well in tree mode basically. If you've used the appropriate properties to describe the hierarchy and you define some top concepts. So indeed scoss and then you'll be able to use it in search mode at least and for tree mode you need a hierarchy to be defined and you need the top concepts explicitly to be defined. So the widget works in a number of modes. Here's the list listed in increasing order of length of name that's a coincidence. There are four pre-packaged modes and although they are pre-packaged they should fulfill quite a variety of needs. You do have the opportunity to customize the behavior quite a lot even in the pre-packaged modes but there is an advanced mode and you can use that advanced mode to customize much much more of the behavior. With advanced mode you don't see anything to start with. You have to select what you have to describe with some JavaScript code what you want to happen. It's up to you.   So I've got some screenshots of the various modes. Here's an example from ABS Fields Research Vocabulary display in tree mode. This tree mode obviously is for vocabularies in which the concepts are arranged in a hierarchy. We do require that for this to work that you have explicitly used these cost properties as top concept and now to define the hierarchy and then this will work nicely for you. Search mode this is where you don't necessarily have a hierarchy or you don't want to offer the hierarchy because it's too big and cumbersome to work your way through. His FLR displayed in search mode. You typically have a text field and that text field you start typing in letters and then you get display of the matches and then you click the one that you want. The display here shows the full set of options for what you can see in the list of suggestions. Here so there's the label, the IRI underneath and to the right the notation. There is one for this vocabulary. We've also got two other modes that drill down into a part of a vocabulary. The narrow mode and the collection modes and narrow mode where you have a hierarchy and you wish to select, you wish only to offer those concepts that are narrower than a specific concept. So again you have to use the cost narrower property in your vocabulary to specify that. The narrow mode works either with the drop-down. Here's an example of a drop-down but you can also specify text field and that text field has a lot of completion. So that's for when the concepts are arranged in a hierarchy. If you're using SCOS collections then you can use collection mode and again collection mode works either with a drop-down so select element or with a text field and again you have auto completion or if you have no idea you click within the text box and you press the down arrow and the full list of possibilities will appear. So again this is this is from River CS and so this works with sets of concepts that are arranged in a SCOS collection. Advanced mode this is this is really roll your own so if you don't if you really don't like what's what we're offering in these canned modes if you like and it's just not going to work for you you can roll your own and at this point you are working with like the back end of the widget the back end provides some services to get the top concepts to be able to do a search to get the narrow concepts etc and then you write some you you explicitly invoke those back end functions and then you write some event handlers to deal with what happens when the results come back from those back end functions. The documentation has an example that's a bit like narrow mode but it's got a list of clickable links to each concepts on a line. I think we use River CS for that. We've got a widget explorer which will help you to get started so it will give you the boilerplate that you need to incorporate just to do anything at all but it also generates the vocabulary specific code that you need to include. It's pretty nice step-by-step wizard. You will notice some similarities to the keyword aggregator if you use it. I don't know who came first on that but we seem to have done a very similar sort of thing. The vocabulary widget explorer does generate vocabulary specific code but it only offers it to you in the tree and the search modes but feel free to use that and then customize the end result so use change the look and feel or use one of the other modes. Again a good place to go further is to check out the documentation that will give you a feel. It's the dot I've spent many many hours working on the documentation the last few weeks and I think it's it's good now. It wasn't good before but it's I think it really does cover what you can do and it makes sense a lot more than it used to. So please have a look at that and feel free to try out the widget explorer, try the narrow collection modes and if you're again try the core mode. The documentation page does have a live demo of each of the modes that you can try and each one of those is linked to the source code of those demos so you can copy the page feel free to adapt those to your own needs. So please try it out and let us know what you think if you like it please go ahead and use it and if you do use it please apply for an API key that you use in calling in the calls to the widget that helps us to track who's using the widget and help us with our analytics that's optional but we do ask you do that if you adapt it and use it and use it on your page and that is it.
