Hey everyone, welcome again to some more nPyScreen programming tutorials and videos in the Python language So here we go in the last video. We actually got a new kind of framework set up with our code We were actually getting the application objects working along with our form objects that we learned about in the video before that Right now our our code still doesn't really do anything. We don't really have any Interaction going on right now, but we're still learning so hopefully that's okay Now we added the form to our application Objects and the kind of the manager for us with this main ID We passed in the object and kind of gave it a few arguments But when we tried to run the code an interesting thing happened, right? We would get to split our form. We'd have our okay button Everything is nice dandy except the fact that we can't do anything and when I try and exit out of the program The enter button to okay. I Can't get out. So we got a control C to break out of this and why is that what's going on there? So I'm gonna hop back on over to our documentation before I do that. I'm going to save a new file 0 4 Cool and now I'll look at documentation as to what's really going on here So we've been looking at these functions that help run the Application object and of course we've got run, which is what we called to actually start the program and start our main loop Starting form. Oh, that's an interesting variable. I Want to lose touch upon it? I'll probably never use it But I do want to let you know that it exists if for any reason you need to change the name of the default form rather from rather than it being main I Just hit the page up button and now I don't know where I am Yeah, rather than having the default form with an idea of main you can change starting form variable to change what it should be so Okay Aside from that tangent. Here's what I want to look at now Once an application is running the following methods control which form is presented to the user now Here's an interesting one NPS app manage dot set next form what this does is it sets the form to be displayed when the current one exits huh There are other functions to you know set next form previous set the form to be displayed when the current one exits to go back to the Previous one in history switch form will get you from one form to another all by the ID here And you can bypass any exit logic of the current form if you'd like set up any you know like Closing functions or function calls or stuff like that and then a switch form previous will immediately switch you to the previous form That you were just asked in the history All those other functions probably things you can use later on for now I'm really curious what this set next form does because when we close out of our program when we try and exit When the current form exits We're not able to get out of our program. Why is that? So here we go, let's do a little bit more reading once all of your forms are ready and registered with the manage instance class You should call run Okay, that's what we do and this method will activate the default form What should have been given an ID of main you can change this to by Changing the starting form variable. Okay, we did that and we just learned about that. So what else? Thereafter the next form to be displayed will be the one specified by the instance variable next active form huh Whenever a form edit loop exits the form specified here will be activated if next active form is none Then the main loop will exit. Oh, okay So next active form should be set by calling the applications set next form form ID method Oh, that's the one that we just read about right up here But we want to set it to none so we'll actually exit our main loop and we'll close our program Okay, so this documentation used to suggest that you should set the attribute directly There aren't any plans to deprecate this attribute, but setting it directly should be avoided So we'll end up using that set next form method So we'll do a little bit more reading before we do that because it looks like it gives us kind of a warning here There are three mechanisms that form should use to control the next active form So all forms that are registered with the managed object that don't have a special method activate will have their method after editing called if they have it Okay, so all forms that are registered that do not have the special method activate I Don't know if we have activate. Do you guys know if we have activate? Anyway, let's just keep reading Logic to determine what the next active form should be will go there Okay, so it will go it'll have the method after editing called so that's what we should put our Set next active form to be that's where we should place that function call if you're expecting you use your users To select an okay your cancel button. This is the preferred way to switch screens So this after editing function is probably gonna be pretty handy for us The application method switch form causes the application to immediately stop editing the current form and switch to the other one Forms registered with the activate method We usually instead Call instead the usual edit method. This can contain additional logic. Oh, this is not the preferred method But may allow greater flexibility Okay If it's not the preferred method to use activate then I guess we'll use After editing that's fine okay So I think that's enough reading and understanding what we're actually doing here. So let's define that new method Let's define after editing in our app object And of course it takes the self argument because it's an inside of an object and we'll call that Set next form right. Well, here's an interesting thing We're calling this in the oh, sorry This is actually in the form Object not the app object Right all forms have to be registered with this activate method or the after editing method So it's in the form object All right, let's let's go down to The next page and documentation read a little bit more about that then or see if it has any stuff about it Displaying and editing forms we covered those Forms may exit It's like these are other possible forms that we can play with later on There's a lot of options here Menus that's pretty cool. Okay. I guess it doesn't give us any more explanation about that. That's fantastic I guess we'll look at the code that they offer then and hopefully we'll try and figure it out. So the code that we have to run is The after editing Function right, but we have to run it within our form object. So Define inside the form object now rather than the app object define after editing self keyword as we're inside of an object and It looks like what they're doing is they're saying parent app dot set next form That would make sense because that's the only way you can actually access the app object If that's like the keyword that allows you to do that So let's do that. Let's say self dot parent app dot set next form And if we set it to none then our main loop will exit, right? Let's try it Python zero four We got our end pie screen form to display if I hit the enter button. Hey our program exits awesome Okay, so that took a little bit of piecing together and a little bit of reading But I think now we understand what that next active form does for us so Okay Even if we had forms afterwards that we would want to use we can apply those we can set them with this function But for now since we want to exit out of the code exit out of the program We'll just pass in none and it looks like that's what it does for us. It lets us get out of the program Cool. I think we're good. I think that's all I wanted to touch upon on this video I know it was kind of long-winded a lot of me talking and doing a lot of reading but hey That's it's a good way to learn. I hope that my video is kind of supplement your understanding and Can guide you along with this documentation stuff his documentation is really a programmer's reference When you're working, you're not gonna be able to remember everything and I know I certainly don't remember everything I tried to but a lot of times we need to look up online and ask for help sometimes So definitely use the documentation and I hope for learning purposes We can go through it and then build some cool stuff. So thank you very much for watching guys Hope you're enjoying the series. I'm having a lot of fun with it. It's kind of nice and I'll see you in the next tutorial


Tell me if I'm lying. I know there were a lot of Ravens fans They got a notification on their phones that said the Ravens have signed and so many were like come on But then they continued it and it said the Ravens have signed head coach John Harbaugh to a three-year extension But now this this doesn't come as a surprise at all This just makes it official even though it was kind of weird how we had heard about it that they were gonna Do it, but we just hadn't heard anything official from the Ravens themselves But now it is real it is happening. Well, it's happened already the Ravens sign John Harbaugh to a three-year contract extension He's now on the contract through 2025 so Good job for John Harbaugh getting his bread And getting even more stability with the Baltimore Ravens of course John Harbaugh has been the Ravens head coach since way back 2008 and that is a long time Now with John Harbaugh, y'all know how I feel about John Harbaugh Did I feel like he deserved an extension? No, I didn't am I tripping that he got an extension? No, I'm not It is what it is my thing with John Harbaugh like I have continued to say What I really wanted to see especially this this season coming up. I just really want to see accountability and Adjustments a a accountability and adjustments Are you going to hold yourself accountable and hold other guys that you have brought on? accountable for their actions and Are you going to be willing to adjust are you willing to get with this new NFL? And again, I'm not saying neglect the defense or neglect the run get no But are you willing to really move forward in this passing league with an offense that passes the Baltimore?  How are you going to handle this team moving forward and that accountability? It comes in so many different ways and so can the adjustments.  It's about different players. You'll sign. It's about different players. You're draft How are you use draft picks? How are you not used? It's it's a lot that goes into it and a lot of it is Philosophy as well, and it's not just hardball alone. It's also Eric the Costa Steve Vashadia It's all of them. So we'll see how this season goes. We'll see how the season goes. I'm hoping for the best I hope John hardball takes it knocks it out the park Shout out to the Orioles, but anyway That wasn't the only thing that was announced Shout out to Jeff's rebuke because he said that Steve Vashadia had a little meeting with a lot of the the Ravens reporters and stuff and Oh Baltimore area reporters. Okay, so I was about to say man I couldn't hit me up, but see what makes this worse about this meeting. It was in Palm Beach barely an hour wait They could have hit me up and be like a come through for the owners meetings. We in Florida South Florida, too man Y'all got love for nobody, but it's all good. I ain't gonna hold it against the Ravens. No, no, no, no, anyway But Jeff's rebuke said that Vashadia said that That he said that he made it clear that the Ravens are interested in extending Lamar Jackson but respect his desire to wait and apparently Vashadia said will pay him when he's ready and Jeff's rebuke also quoted him saying without a quarterback that you believe in Life stinks as an NFL owner and as a fan base We appreciate Lamar. All I know is that his teammates love him in the front office. Love them. Okay, cool. That's nice That's really nice And again, this is another Ravens executive letting everybody know publicly. Hey We're ready. We want to do our thing, but it's all on Lamar. It's on him. We waiting on him He's the one that's holding this thing up. He's the one that don't want to sign yet. We're ready So again, we talked about how contract negotiations go but I'm very I'm very interested to see how this thing goes because you you could say all the stuff in the world You could say all the right things but for me seeing is believing seeing is believing and When it comes to Lamar Again the Sean Watson change the game the Browns what they gave to the show what that change the game 250 million dollars All guaranteed all guaranteed 250 million dollars guaranteed And if that's the floor that the Browns they they changed everything They paid a quarterback Hadn't played football for a whole year Hadn't played football for a whole year still has a possibility of being suspended They pay that court so they may not even get this guy Throughout some parts of this season. It's a possibility.  I Didn't talk to him. No, he said he ain't taking seriously So shout out to my guy KC for having a good sense of humor. I appreciate you But they paid the Sean Watson all of that money and He got some some stuff on the side that he may or may not have to still deal with Lamar got to be like You know, he is you know, he is like man, oh So I'm just I'm very curious as to how this thing goes like I don't I don't even think we're gonna have to wait Two years or three years cuz I know he's playing on the fifth year option right now And then I know everybody's been talking about all the Ravens could franchise tag him next year Then they go franchise tag him again. I Don't think it gets drawn out for those two franchise tag years Because again with the franchise tag, I know cuz a lot of people keep saying oh, yeah Ravens got all the leverage in the world Lamar doesn't have any leverage Ravens could they got the fifth year option They go franchise tag once franchise again All Lamar Jackson do got to do is say a word. That's it All he got to do is say the word if he ain't feeling the franchise tag if he ain't feeling the Ravens no more Things could get so ugly so fast so fast and With that say for instance, they They came up off of Lamar. They were like, all right Lamar.  We're gonna trade you Then and he what if he was not really feeling the Ravens man, and he let it be known Oh, that would just send shockwaves to the whole NFL now. We obviously don't want it to get to that So hopefully when Lamar and the Ravens they start talking again and Lamar feels he's ready I still don't think a contract happens this offseason, but when Lamar Jackson feels like he's ready and Ravens talked to him They can't start at though. I mean the floor is the 250 mil Guaranteed guaranteed You can't go under that you can't Ain't no hometown Ain't no discounts. You that's your floor 250 mil guaranteed is the floor and We're gonna look at to see what Kyla Murray gets whenever that time comes We're gonna look at to see what Derek Carr gets whenever that time comes even though there What was it their owner to GM? I forgot who it was that put out that little quote now I didn't hear the whole interview or whatever. So I can't go too much off of that quote But from that quote it did not look too pretty When you said oh Derek Carr got to do what's best with him We got to do what's best for us and hopefully with me somewhere in the middle. He said something like that I was like contract negotiations they can get very ugly very fast because It's a lot of things that you just don't mess with when it comes to people You don't mess with people's family, but you don't mess with people's money You don't mess with people money because you you can have the best relationship with somebody y'all can be aces y'all could be down y'all could be boys Y'all could be girls y'all could be whatever But once you cross that line All that can change like that and This is already a business relationship. Of course. They got love for each other personally and whatnot But this is a business relationship and business relationships. They will be broken If the money ain't right so Hey But shawty talking good now. Well, again, we're gonna see we may not see this year. I don't think we'll see this year But when it comes that time Yeah, Ravens already got they already got a blueprint For where they need to start when it comes to these contract discussions. So hopefully they take a series I'm sure Lamont, you know, he's taking a series. He looked 250 mil guaranteed That's a whole lot of money we out


Testing testing What's up guys Going on happy Tuesday got some big earnings here today. Oh This morning. We had some I don't think we have anything right now We only have Saratoga after hours, but this morning we have Pepsi That was actually really really good But let's check out the market bubble real quick Guys, hope you guys had a good day today. It was a pretty pretty green in the market across the board until the end of the day Pretty interesting rejection point to On the 48 minute chart it kind of rejected on the 200 SMA right there EMA one of the other So that's a pretty pretty interesting rejection. This could be This could be one of the other chops coming back down again Hard to say honestly either we break through this level and Come back to the top to 443 or we just completely come back down from here Yeah, it's pretty ugly at the end of the day But throughout the day the biggest mover was Netflix at 6% almost 638 hitting all new all-time highs Probably due to everybody being excited about squid games or something who knows And video was up 4% today had a nice little reversal to the upside Who was finding some support starting to move back up as well and Then you know Google Microsoft some of these other boys. They started coming up a little bit. So Market was a little bit More green than usual I guess to a certain extent Um Financials were having a nice bullish day again. So some of the financials at least Mastercar and visa kind of gave up some of the games though. Yeah, that close was pretty ugly. I am In the way, I kind of saw it coming a little bit too because I saw us hitting this 200 over here And I was like man, I hope we don't we jack but It's looking pretty ugly looking like a perfect rejection right now So it could be setting up something like that where you know, if it doesn't break through like let's say tomorrow we wake up right and And spy doesn't break through the high of today, which was like 435 if it doesn't open the like 436 tomorrow It's gonna be pretty ugly. It's pretty sure we're gonna go back to 426 if we don't open above 436 But we'll see time will tell time will tell Today was definitely a good day to exit some of the positions if you were able to be green Then some of the company that was really really beat up today was Haynes brand came back down all the way to $16 Penn Caesars starting to lose the momentum Wouldn't be surprised to see MGM starting to lose them momentum as well That was something we looked at yesterday Real estate still struggling a little bit at least some of the real estate companies So real estate, where's that real estate in the red United Health Services getting pretty beat up, too Let's go over to the Bazinga Yeah, semiconductor to have a good day. I think I feel like Semiconductor mostly had a good day because of the Nvidia kind of carried on this back a little bit Chewy I mean the whole market is dropping spend though You know like what stocks do you know that hasn't been dropping in the last two weeks? It's just tough, but you know some of them ran so much it's getting good pullback has commodity not been dropping I mean look at steel steel as a commodity is getting pretty beat up, right? You know a lot of the other like a lot of the other stuff like copper corn That's true. I like L. I V has been running up for some weird-ass reasons. I don't even know why anymore It's a lot of chops lot up and downs Market and balance today was 295 million to the buy side. Um, was there any crazy news going on today? Let me see just double down spend though. Just double down What do you worry about? It's just a dollar cost average DC a What's the worst that's gonna happen drops 10 more dollars, and then you just buy more if You like chewy, right? You have a pet. Oh No, not not MRK. I was telling spenders to buy back into her chewy Because she loves chewy so much MRMA. That's a good one Somebody from our YouTube channel asked thoughts on MRMA got to check that out Let me add that to the list. We'll check out MRMA. Oh, wow, Sarah Toga reported the earnings They had a pretty good earnings actually, let me see wow this company actually came back to the 2020 highs Slowly been grinding all the way back here. Wow. What a grind Sarah Togo investments reported earnings per share of 63 cents as opposed to 48 cents Sales is 18.44 mil as opposed to 17.27 million This is a 28% increase compared to last year and 31% increase in sales compared to last year Thanks in New York company, too I feel like because I remember buying some some shares of this last year It's like a real estate management company too as well. I think they do a lot of different things But I'm actually surprised to see that we covering honestly I remember getting them like getting them pretty cheap last year And I didn't think they were gonna recover all the way back to this level I mean, obviously don't have any more because I didn't believe in them to make that full recovery But oh well Tesla All right, let's do this. I got you guys TSOA What else PLTR inverted How are you gonna convert it? Just just just make another fun. Just make a separate fun So strangles on chewy It looks very volatile M.U. SDC I got you. All right, let's check out Pepsi Pepsi reported earnings this morning at 6 a.m. EPS earnings per share is $1.70 99 as opposed to $1.73. That's a beat sales is 20.19 billion as opposed to 19.39 billion That's a beat as well Compared to last year. This was a 7% increase Compared to $1.66 earnings per share, which is pretty pretty pretty good considering like last year was one of the best quarters for for Pepsi So that's pretty good considering, you know that they were what's achieved that and then sales is 20.919 billion compared to last year of 18.09 So that's another 11% increase compared to last year in sales. So that is also, you know Pretty pretty big pretty pretty significant Company was trading a hundred forty seven dollar last year right now. It's trading at one forty one 47 times 1.11 Easily easily worth like 160 no way it's like at this price The discount right now huge discount because honestly like Pepsi is one of the few companies that just benefits so much from pandemic Because they they not only sell drinks, but they have snacks, right? They're just such a big company they have everything from like Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Gatorade, Snacks, you know, the Ritos, Lays, Ruffles All that stuff they have like so much different things that and even Quakers, right? So that even you know, even when when people are stuck at home people are buying snacks and watching shows So people were buying like Pepsi products non-stop. So instead of like going downhill last year They actually perform extremely well. So for them to even be able to like Beat last year's numbers That's already pretty amazing in my opinion And then the fact that they were supposed to build two billion dollar more sales and on top of that They think that they would be able to continue to see a full year growth between six to eight percent Right now they're showing, you know Somewhere between eight to twelve percent growth, but they think they they see at least six to eight percent. So That's pretty bullish on the company. I mean even if the company was growing at six percent And we take the price of last year at 147 right times 1.06 Easily at least worth $155. I don't see why not. I mean unless the market starts like Crashing 20% downhill. I think this is a huge buying opportunity at the current price point bullish on Pepsi Exactly Jawah 5.63 is right Amazon I got you. Oh, yeah, I saw Kellogg's got beat up mid afternoon So in this afternoon it says Says Kellogg share fell to session lows amid reported workers at all of companies US cereal plant have gone on strike Damn, what's next boys?  Huh? Who eats cereal anymore, man Let's start looking into the tickers. Let's check out MRMA Yo, you guys really eat cereals? for breakfast Honestly, man, I Like you can't even get me to eat cereals because I don't know why it's just so sweet, man Like once you get rid of like once you like get into habit not eating sweet stuff and you eat sugar Like if you ever eat cereal by itself.  That's why I can't like I Just like I don't know can't do show you It's just too sweet for me You have traded 2019 from our YouTube channel says Long of you guys in a day training full-time without a day job. Oh, I mean we have a so we have a whole Whole discord channel here. We have a lot of analysts and and you know, everybody's a little different some of us You know Do do consulting on the side some of us do full-time and some of us do a mix of both So it varies man. It varies depending on who you're asking MRMA looks pretty interesting on the daily side On the one-day chart. So last time I drew this was when it was before it got added to the S&P 500 and And Like and we had this big break above You know kind of like broke out of that that means that range over here and we went crazy on MRMA so it's finally started coming down We got the hundred SMA right here Which could possibly bounce at around the 304 level actually I think even it touched 305 today and had a pretty nice bounce Touched 305 and had a huge bounce there If it continues to stay above 305 or 304 This could be the beginning of the reversal to the upside right Looking at how things work Let's check the half-day chart So if it remains above that 300 Level it would be the reversal to the upside But if it gets below that I Think we can at least touch like 270s It's hard to say man. It just the stock moves so much. It's so wild It's pretty risky Dickey to play. There's no real catalyst left I mean got earnings coming up next month a lot of the stuff that they've been saying has already been priced in Plus MRK could potentially take a lot of business from them So there's a few there's a few things going on that, you know, they could affect them be big time So on the technical side, I would say if it holds this 305 level you're good under 305 hella bearish Under 305 bearish for ingredient is sugar. Oh, man I also have problem with oatmeal to hangi So, you know how like everybody always say that oatmeal is super healthy and if everything right and they do a really good job of Marketing oatmeal as well. That is like one of the most like Healthiest breakfast out there, but then But then like if you ever look at the content oatmeal, it's actually very very high in carbohydrates so it depends on how Everybody is a person for me if I eat oatmeal and that milk in it as well I tend to get like a carb overload really fast because it's like, you know, it's it's processed carb too So I get I get hit with that carb really fast and actually start falling asleep So I can't really have oatmeal either. It's so tough man to find good breakfast. Honestly Let me show you. Let me show you guys if you guys want You guys want Low carb. Let me show you. Let me show you man. I was talking to my boy youngbo today and So if you guys like this is like this is key right now This is what I found to be like like one of the best breakfast lunch ever it's Mission has this car balance wrap where it has only like four grams and that car has like 15 grams of fiber and like the it's like a tortilla, right and It's like 70 70 calories and then you I just the super basic to make you just throw a piece of turkey on it Throw some lettuce. It's like lettuce has almost no calories, right?   I actually used to love cream of wheat That was one thing that that I would like. I don't know why But I could never make it right. It only tastes good when I buy outside My college used to have it, but whenever I tried to make it myself it tasted nasty Cream cheese sandwich a good college days, man. He's have like a cream cheese bagel So we just looked at Moderna. We're looking at Tesla next You know Tesla have that really good news on Monday huge gap up Coming back down and it's struggling to really break above that resistance So it's looking a little bit weak. Actually, let me look at the half-day chart VWAP traded from our YouTube site If you want to check out Moderna, let's check out here So I posted it So I said if it as long as it remains about 305 pretty bullish on the 305 is very bearish So I'm just taking a look at Tesla from multiple angles On my Bollinger band. I also drew Tesla on this uptrend resistance line as well It's not perfect, but it looks pretty it looks like it's been Pretty pretty close on point. So if you look at Tesla So if you look at Tesla from like the last few months, right? it's it's gotten this uptrend I drew this uptrend line from July and Kind of every few every time it has hit that uptrend line that the line on top It has rejected it pretty well And then coming back to test the middle of the 200 moving average on my 48 minute chart So it just hit it again on Monday, right? And they really struggled to break through. So we came back down and coming back a little bit It's it's in the middle of the range right here. So it's really really hard to play So I would say, you know, the ideal way to play would be see if you can get an entry around 758 if you're bullish, you know a way for it to come back for that bounce if you're bearish You could try shorting it there, but Since it's in such in the middle of the range right now It's not something that's like easy to play because it could really go eat eat the direction here And Tesla is just one of those stocks that chops a lot, too, you know, but based on the news, I mean, I Mean, they had really good delivery numbers They they blew expectation naturally it should go up a little bit more But at the same time if you play, you know, Apple earnings or Apple product event news You know that a lot of times is sell the news You know So there's that I don't really draw wedges unless I can draw like a perfect line on the bottom side So there there is no perfect line the bottom side. There was a prior which here before but you know, this broke out So it became pretty bullish So this is just you know, this is just strictly the top side I didn't draw the bottom side because the bottom side is in the perfect line So I don't I don't draw unless it's a perfect line the bottom side because I It's one of my pet peeves like if if if the line isn't perfect on the bottom side, then it's not It's not viable to trust it, you know So like you can technically it's like you draw something like that But you can see like over here broke through it. So it's not like super trustworthy So I mostly we're just I would just strictly look at it for this top line for the rejection For the target. So like if you want to go long on Tesla, right? Let's say you want to go long Tesla The top side could be one of the areas you're looking to take profit at that's pretty much it and then you know The middle line over here is where you can look up to me. So I hope that helps on Tesla Let's check out PLTR next. Wow PLTR came down a lot Hit like $29. Holy smokes Yeah, I remember last month. We had a lot of people that was asking about PLTR 823 million contract. Holy smokes. Oh wow, it's up to $24 right now Yo, it was do it was do for that bounce So last time we looked at PLTR was around 21 to $24 range We were looking for that breakout move this cup and handle set up And then as you can see we got that cup and handle set up Came back down broke out a little bit and then market got really bad market got really ugly We never made it to that $31 area. So it kind of came back down a lot Came back down a lot. So now that is making that move to the upside. I would say it's pretty bullish again We could look for the next price target at 27 There were some there were some other bearish news too on on PLTR the last few days I think they lost some other contracts as well So it's been it's been iffy, but The algo liked it found some support in the RSI here as it hit zero 2487 is also resistance too. Yeah, that's what So that's a hunger you're saying as well. Oh, let me let me send you the link for our membership plans So VWAP trader was asking on our YouTube channel. It's like how much those are trade room costs and if it was worth it So that's that's the link to like the prices and stuff And if you get like the lifetime membership, you get the one-on-one tutoring as well I want on one mentoring and some of the other miscellaneous tools and things that we have But PLTR looks good Ideally 22.50 would have been the perfect entry But It looks like it's already moving to the upside setting up the reversal So we could potentially see a nice move back to the 2728 Maybe I'll get back in tomorrow MU Who asked about MU man? Hate this company be right back. Let me get some water. I'm just kidding. Just kidding man Which we respect all company equally So I'm you have some support coming up a little bit around $69 range Did we hit it? I don't think we hit it yet the lowest has been like Well, yeah, then we did hit it a little bit 69 63 but Just wait on it. I don't think it's ready yet Wait till the market stabilize, you know, this could be a huge reversal set up here like it did last time right but I don't think the market. I don't think the market is setting up yet So wait for some confirmation. I'm looking at the half day chart right now. We don't have any green candle yet So at least wait to see if we get some green candle for some confirmation to the upside But if you're bullish, if you're bullish, you know, um Trading is 70 If you want to be really really bold and you want to like, yo, let me let me risk it You know risk it for the biscuit you could take some 74 dollar calls I think we can come back to that range 74 dollars is pretty reasonable. It's only a few dollars Um, but I probably say go a month out, man You know, because you never know how long this is going to take it could take at least two weeks So a month for that move to happen to 74s So that's a possibility. It's actually it's actually looking pretty interesting We should check that we should check back on this on like friday and see see what move it has yet Keep that on watch for sure Sure hbo h2o beer go for it, man sdc So sdc had a huge run up last time um smile at the recs Because it was being short squeeze So short float is now at 32 88 percent again based on the last report which If you're looking to if you're looking for a short squeeze play That's what you want to see You know, you want to see you want to see that you want to see a high float like that high short interest So that it has potential to squeeze to the upside So last time we looked at it. It was like around here. It was around six seven dollars I was expecting it to come back to the 770 range and for it to come back down from there But obviously that didn't that didn't hit So i'm going to draw this line a little bit lower. So this way we have better expectation for this time so If you're getting in at this um At this 570 580 dollar range Probably look for the dollar move to 670s if you think you're going to get that squeeze and it's going to You know make that big move to the upside That's probably one of the safest and exits out there if you if you're looking for a quick easy money and safe exit So that's based on the trend line that it's been rejecting off on the top side. So is that 670s? So that's small direct hope that helps so spy So what I pulled up right now is the es which is s and p futures Um, this is just a different variation of spy with x is zero on top of it So right now this is at 4336 um Spy is at 433. So if you just take out that last number you'll get pretty close. So that's spy number So just for for people that aren't familiar with futures and and what it means It's just it's just adding an extra, you know zero on the end here So if you just take, you know that current price of 433 4336 Take out the six the last few you get this It's usually pretty close in that sense but I I look at the futures chart more because it's it's um The futures is open like 23 hours in a day and The the moving averages and other stuff are more accurate because of that. So that's why I looked at it um, but based on today, I talked a little bit at the opening in the stream that Based on the way the yes looks if you're bearish and and you're looking for opportunities short the market or hitch the market This would be the spot today around 2 o'clock at 435 That would have been the spot to short it start put position um Because that that was a that was a huge resistance line here a little bit um, and then also kind of the resistance line also kind of aligned with the line from the other day on the October 3rd, um, which Which was sunday So kind of aligned with that same line on sunday as a possible short-term double top there as well, right? So But technically Um, we also have a short-term double bottom here set up too, right? We also have a technical short-term double bottom setup If so that means if we can break above we're extremely bullish If we can break above this middle the the middle of that that w It's extremely bullish if we can't break above it. It's pretty bearish. It would have to set up another triple bottom What's the point of the futures? I mean It's like it's just like calls and contracts like that. It's just a way for for like hedge funds to hedge And things like that the the futures contracts. They usually trade it every like they usually have an exploration of every three months Um, and they they go in multiples of like tens to hundreds depending on which ones you're if you're putting it with so it I think it mostly started as a way to hedge But now is a pretty common way for people to trade it just like how people are trading spies now people are trading futures more Um, but the other thing with futures that it's a little bit easier to trade because It's it's open like, you know, 23 hours in a day. The only time is close It's like I think between five to six or something like that And and other than that it's mostly open. So if you're interested in playing the market If you're interested in marketing direction on the market you could play it And sometimes bad news and things like that you want to be able to access the market when when bad news happened so like Something like 2018 where we had a lot of trade warring news Um, you were able to buy the dip in the futures, you know, whereas you couldn't even buy the dip in the spy market but naturally though, um futures contracts are speculative derivatives So just like how when you're buying a call, you know, say say you want to buy a call for spy, right? And and you think it's going to go back to like let's say 440s Right, you're buying the call for end of the week for 440s. You're speculating that you think is going to come back to 440s So it's that same contract that same. Um, that same concept of speculative speculative investments So they do that with corn they do that with like lumber all these other stuff oil and and everything else It's how like where they think the price of these product is going to go by by the time But now it's become so liquid that You know, it's not really like a future speculation anymore. It's more of like a At-the-moment speculation now So that's for spy. I hope that helps Um for some of you guys that are new If you're Interesting checking out the charts I posted that we just put it for you. It's over here. Check out the link Here's my eat tomorrow. This rate is looking like let's check out amazon as well um because amazon could be an interesting Deciding factor as well Okay, okay amazon's looking pretty interesting here actually whoa Who asked for this amazon man? So here's something interesting right tricky turkey. Thanks for having us look at amazon, man So here's something interesting um The s and p 500 is the holding right it's index right that holds like a many other companies. So In the way I talked about how Um, if you guys hear the other day in the way I talked about how s and p 500 could be like the weather It could be the environment, right? Um, if you're if you're trying to trade stocks, you should look at what direction it is and And how like the co-environment is doing but at the same time Um, somebody these tickers like amazon and apple They make up such a big part of the index that they sometimes could determine the direction as well So if you if we see a really really bullish setup on amazon um Kind of like right now, you know, it's holding this support area really really well here, right? Look at that. That's One of the first times we hit that bottom Um at the 31 80 dollar area. So I think time hawk alerted entry to yesterday. What a great entry, man um So around this is the first time it hit it was around august 20 um, we touched that range But we have touched that range actually in july and june as well um, so that this is a like Three four times the support's been used multiple times um And then we just touched it again yesterday We came down and we had a perfect bounce off that right so in order for something to be the support um And and the whole concept support is paying for to back it up, right? so As you can see it hit that that 31 80 dollar area Um, and it just bounced perfectly, you know, just kick right back up So that's that's what we want to see if you want to see if you want this line to be the support You want to see that bounce off you don't want it to break under because if we broke under we wouldn't embarrass So this this is a pretty good setup right now setting up the double bottom a little bit. Um kind of like the market And if we can you know continue to move above here um You know at the directions moving right now it it looks like it could you know ideally move up Yeah, but you know hawaiian beef a lot of times weekly makes up the Makes like daily makes up the weekly so sometimes looking too far in the weekly Um, you know, you might get too confused just like how right now I'm looking at the intraday chart For for the reversal setup whereas the daily chart. I don't see the reversal set up yet, right? Um, and then the same thing on the weekly if you're looking at the weekly You know, it's it's it's tough. You got to watch the daily So the weekly we have like a moving average here Um, you know, you could be looking at the tops here. There's so many different ways to look at it They all depend on where you think the direction of the market is going to as well I mean look at um look us look at yes on the weekly Isn't that like one of the worst setups out there right now? Like how tell me how you don't see you don't see us going to to 35 in the weekly Tell me how So don't don't get caught up too much on the weekly man But so far Amazon looks pretty interesting if we can open above today If we can open above today's closing price and remain above it That that would be continuation to the upside as long as we stay above 32 50 tomorrow. I think we we got that confirmation to the upside If amazon can pull that confirmation to the upside it could probably carry S&P 500 on his back as well But we'll see we'll see you got to see how market opens tomorrow to to really see that direction So I like it amazon has a pretty good setup there Let me check out apple while i'm at it Indeed man Apple's got a nice little reversal setup too So a lot of things are looking good. Um, could even see inverse head and shoulder here possibly um One side of the shoulder Right and then If this is the head Coming back to 145 maybe even a little bit higher and then we can set up the other side of the shoulder Coming back to all-time highs, baby Why not? Netflix is still moving up like crazy um, facebook finding a little bit finding a little bit, um Find a little bit buying demand today, so But facebook is at the resistance though So that's the that's the line that last time bounced at now that it's under it. This is now the resistance So it needs to get above 335 tomorrow for facebook to be kind of bullish Um Microsoft's already sitting at the reversal as well, but didn't drop that's hard So it's got some mixed signal here for sure um AMD looking interesting too I'm testing the top of the trend line So we're really expecting it to break above, but Maybe you don't want to do it How did I miss this? What's going on? Why is it not showing up? So here's another interesting one for you guys if you guys want to buy the dip if you guys are bullish on the semiconductor sector Um, this is pretty cheap right now. O. L. E. D um Universal display corporation this company was trading at 220 dollars um in january of 2020 And right now it's 168 way below that price point um, it's at a really good really good level Dating back to september of 2020 and june of 2020 this um $167 range here if this starts to reverse we can see some big upsides upsides O. L. E. D Could be interesting lotto play actually huge potential to the upside If market is bullish Oh tilray. Oh I think tilray has earning this week, right? Oh god, don't do it man. Don't do it Don't do it You know every time tilray has earnings It has flop like the last few time it has earnings is flop pretty hard Recent reward is not on your side, buddy That's tilray upside move could be you know, 1160s. It's 1109 That's a tiny move, man Why nastinate why?

Hello and welcome to the session it is called the following problem today given a non-empty set x consider the binary operation star from p of x cross p of x to p of x given by a star b is equal to a intersection b for all a b in p of x where p of x is the power set of x show that x is the identity element for this operation and x is the only invertible element in p of x with respect to the operation star now let us write the solution we have function star from p of x cross p of x to p of x defined by a star b which is equal to a intersection b for x belongs to p of x x star a is equal to x intersection a. Which is equal to a for all a thus x is the identity element now let i be another identity which implies i intersection a is equal to a for all a and if x belongs to x i intersection single term x is equal to single term x now x belongs to i which implies x is containing i and i is containing x which implies i is equal to x thus x is the only invertible element the identity element and x is the only invertible element i hope you understood this problem bye and have a nice day


Hello, you incredible people. My name is Harrison. I am from Rochester, New York I am a rising senior in the College of Engineering and Mathematical Sciences studying civil engineering Outside of the classroom. I am the captain of the steel bridge team I'm a member of the ski and snowboard club and I love to go get sendy at all the local mountains And I'm also a big fan of doing anything I can outside Today, I'll be taking you out a little tour de Burlington.

All right, so let's go Here we've got a beautiful workout station right by the water Wow And you're right. You've got a wonderful dog park Look at that view And here we are at North Beach a very popular summer location Today's a little cold. So there's not too much going on This view just never gets old now. We're going over an absolutely gorgeous Three-span trust bridge Absolutely crazy views While we're winning Whoo All right, folks, we are now in the woods. We're on the trail system of Ethan Allen. It's pretty sweet Well, miraculously I haven't hurt myself between biking and doing all this tomfoolery whole big roots So I am going to try some mountain biking because I feel like I would be remiss if I didn't talk about mountain biking at UVM Because it's a huge Attraction for a lot of people. We've got incredible trail systems up here. We've got one of the best mountains in the world Just a ride or a drive away In East Burke, which is really cool.  Oh Where I belong I'm beautifully paved road. Oh my goodness. Look at that. Wow Yeah, so catch you when we get to our last stop We're gonna go visit one of my old internships and sort of talk about transportation as a whole All right, I'll see you when I get there So pretty cool This bridge right here pretty awesome. Little did you know you're coming for a bridge tour not actually a UVM tour? that accesses Ethan Allen Parkway right there and We are currently on Another bike path. It's really great to have like multiple bike paths. You can take different routes every week and stuff Keep it interesting All right. I'll see you at the internship All right, here we are at CCR PC And this is where I had my internship last summer this summer. I'm working at stand tech and I am a Transportation intern, so I'm actually helping out on some projects that have to do with bike stuff or walking paths and All the stuff that gets you there, so It's been really cool to work with them. It's really amazing to see all the hard work They're putting into Improving the whole system making it safer and making it more accessible to everyone so everyone can get out and bike ride Just like some notes to say at the end like if you aren't a big biker There's plenty of other ways to get around. I don't mean to wait till the end to do this because you've probably already Stopped watching. All right, and that's a wrap. Thank you for watching.  I do want to say that I was completely safe the whole time I made sure to size up any segment that I was going to bike with no hands For instance with the banana and such so Make sure that you're safe when you go out and bike always wear your helmet and I hope to see you on campus soon. Adios


Namaste, so I am Johannes Brodwell, I'm here at Agile India with Jess Humble and we're going to talk about his last keynote today and this time we'll do a lightning interview. So the rules are like this, I'll ask you a question and you should answer as quickly as possible and when you're done answered you will ring the bell. So what is an improvement cutter? An improvement cutter is a meta-method for achieving goals in conditions of uncertainty that develops the capability of the people doing the work. So how do you develop capabilities of people? By working with them to set target objectives and then facilitating the people doing the work, running experiments to try and learn how to achieve themselves. What's the best way to run an experiment? As frequently as possible, following the scientific method. So you talk a lot about continuous improvement, what does continuous mean? To quote Mike Roberts, continuous means much more often than you think. And you also talk about how to create the culture where there is room for continuous improvement. How do you create the culture for continuous improvement? You have to create an environment of trust so that people can experiment and make mistakes and not be punished. And you have to create alignment so everyone is moving in the right direction even though they're experimenting locally. So how can you recognize the environment of high trust? When something goes wrong, people focus on trying to improve the system rather than trying to find the individuals who might have somehow been responsible and blamed them. Dan Melsang says we should all plan for a future where we're as stupid as we are today. I think that's a very good quote to end on.  Thank you very much.


The Government has made a firm commitment to those who want to study at college and university in Scotland that access must be based on the ability to learn, not the ability to pay. We restored free education for first-time undergraduates, which helps more than 120,000 students studying in Scotland every year. Indeed, the chair of the independent review of student support, Jeane Anne Gadiya, commented that the Scottish Government's focus on funding tuition fees for social and economic prosperity is to be commended. More full-time higher education students than ever are receiving support, a total of 143,110 in 2016-17, up 1.5 per cent from 2015-16. Meanwhile, in the 2018-19 further education budget is at record levels of over £111 million for college bursaries, childcare and discretionary funds, a real-terms increase of 34 per cent since 2006-07. However, I know that there is much more to be done to build a fairer future for all, and that is why the Scottish Government established the review of student support. I would like to formally state on the record my thanks to the independent chair, Jeane Anne Gadiya and the review board members. It was essential for the Government to take some time to consider the recommendations, particularly where there are complex interactions such as with the social security systems. I have already welcomed the report's central premise of creating a student support system around the key values of fairness, parity and clarity. I want Scotland's student support system to be focused on the poorest students, and that complements our wider ambitions to reduce child poverty and to widen access to university. In response to the review that I wrote to the convener of the Education and Skills Committee on 9 June, a number of significant announcements to improve student support, including an additional £21 million per year by the end of this Parliament is to be invested in improving student support over the parliamentary term. As part of that, investment of over £5 million will be provided in 2018-19 to increase bursaries for full-time care experience students to £8,100 per year, as per the review's recommendation of funding equivalent to the living wage. The further education care experience bursary will increase from £4,185 to £8,100, and the higher education care experience bursary will rise from £7,625 to £8,100 per year. This step is of particular significance, as it takes the support available to care experienced HE and FE students to a level that is equivalent to the real living wage. That equivalent of the real living wage was, of course, a key part of the recommendations of the review, and we share the review's ambition to achieve this level of support for all students and are pleased that we have been able to deliver that in the first instance for care experience students. We will also invest £16 million in 2019-20 to increase further and higher education bursaries for students from the lowest income families and expand access to them. I am pleased to provide more detail today. In order to support access to bursaries for students from the poorest families, we will raise the higher education bursary income threshold from £19,000 to £21,000 from 2019-20. We will also increase bursary support for the poorest young students in higher education from £1,875 per year to £2,000, which combined with raising the HE bursary threshold will benefit 13,500 students. Further to that, we will increase bursary support for the poorest independent students in higher education from £875 per year to £1,000 per year, which will benefit nearly 18,000 students. That combined improvements will result in around 31,000 higher education students benefiting from an improved package of support. For students in further education, we will increase bursary support so that in 2019-20 students can receive a bursary of up to £4,500 per year, which will benefit more than 7,000 students. In addition to that, from 2019-20, we will ensure that all eligible further education students age 19 and over receive a guaranteed bursary award. That means that the students will not face the postcode lottery effect, which NUS Scotland has a long campaign to end. Taken together, those changes also increase the total support package that is available to students and represents the first step towards realising the ambition of delivering the equivalent of the real living wage to students. Additional funding will also be provided to support another key area. I have asked the Student Awards Agency Scotland to lead on improvements to information, advice, guidance and financial literacy. The aspiration will be to offer a joined-up approach for further and higher education, as well as to build on the good work that is already under way in schools and for parents and guardians. The ambition is a combined online portal for student finance information during the 2019-20 academic year. I recognise that there will be some students who are unable to access advice online, and I want to ensure that we provide that via other means, too. We will also seek to improve financial literacy with increased guidance on student loans, budgeting and repayment terms. I want to ensure that students are supported not just during their studies but after they graduate too. As part of our programme for government, we committed to raising the repayment threshold for student loans to £22,000 by the end of this Parliament. However, we have gone further than that. I am pleased to confirm that the loan repayment threshold will be increased to £25,000 from April 2021, reducing monthly loan repayments for thousands of Scottish graduates. A number of system and legislative adjustments are required to practically deliver on this commitment, and Scottish Government officials are engaging with key stakeholders to undertake this work. I will also bring about forward legislation to reduce the maximum repayment period for student loans from 35 to 30 years by the end of 2018. I will now move on to outline the Government's response to some of the other specific recommendations. The review reported unfair and inflexible attendance criteria in colleges. Over recent months, the Scottish Funding Council and NUS Scotland have worked closely to make improvements for this coming academic year. The Scottish Government wants a system in place in which bursary awards are based on students' engagement in their studies, taking clear account of their personal circumstances, be that caring responsibilities or other important factors such as mental and physical health. NUS Scotland has stated that this is a huge win for students and gives students associations the back-up they need in challenging unfair policies at a local level. We have also made clear a commitment to supporting college and university's students' mental health and wellbeing. In March 2018, we confirmed over £250,000 funding to NUS Scotland for their Think Positive mental health project across Scotland's campuses. We are committed also to making university and college campuses places where students can live, study and research free of sexual harassment and gender-based violence. We have provided an additional £396,000 to implement a new toolkit to address gender-based violence on campus. We are also clear that there is an essential role to be played by college and university staff in providing valuable advice to students to access financial support, and we want to see that face-to-face support and advice continue and to grow. The review made clear that there are a number of areas that it was unable to consider, and as a result there are some recommendations that I am committed to further investigating. A new approach for students who are eligible to remain on social security benefits while studying was recommended. Negotiations on this is required with the Department of Work and Pensions, and work has commenced in this area with early exploratory discussions with DWP Underway. The aspiration here is clear, ensuring that no prospective student is disadvantaged or discouraged from undertaking studies due to a potential loss of social security benefits to which they are entitled while studying. On the review's recommendations, we are also committed to reviewing all non-core and discretionary support. We are already provided over £7 million in discretionary funding for further education students in this academic year, and over £16 million will be invested for higher education students in 2018-19. We will also look at support for part-time and disabled students and for carers. That will take account of significant investment that we already provide to support students with additional needs. Universities receive funding from the Scottish Funding Council to ensure that institution and course provision is more inclusive for students with additional needs. A total of £20.8 million was allocated to the universities in the academic year 16-17. Colleges have access to a £50.5 million access and inclusion fund to help them to achieve parity of outcomes for all students at college. The student voice is essential in this process, and we will launch a consultation to hear the views of learners. I would expect this work to commence in the new academic year. The review called for parity across further and higher education with the introduction of loans to further education. It gathered valuable evidence, including highlighting the cases of students using credit cards or payday loans to supplement income. This cannot and will not be ignored. Independent research focuss on distinct groups of students. Independent research focusing on distinct groups of students will commence soon and report by the end of 2018. That will provide an evidence base on demand and concerns. I will be able to consider their recommendation further once we have a solid evidence base to underpin that consideration. Finally, we have noticed the review's findings that students want more choice over the timings of their payments. Higher education students in particular would like 12-monthly payments rather than just over term time. That will require engagement with the student loans company and with the Department of Work and Pensions to ensure no negative consequences for students receiving social security benefits. I am pleased to have been able to share with the chamber our commitment to improve student support for our most disadvantaged students and to provide more detail on care experience bursaries. I recognise that there are a number of areas that require further work and have outlined how those will be taken forward. As I have made clear throughout the statement, any changes being introduced or considered are with the poorest students at the forefront of my thinking. I want to ensure that any prospective student, regardless of their background, is equipped with what they need to fulfil their potential. I absolutely agree with Jeane An-Gadda, when she said that education has the power to transform lives. I believe that the changes that we have introduced and are considering will help to do just that. That was quite a detailed statement from the minister, and I am conscious that the previous statement overran. To be aware, it will not affect the opening questioners, but I ask all subsequent questioners to make sure that their questions are succinct and, similarly, perhaps the minister in her answers. I thank the minister for early sight of the statement. I welcome many aspects of that statement, particularly in the context of what I think the lessons are to be learned from Professor Ian Diamond's report on similar issues in student support in Wales and, obviously, from the report from Jeane An-Gadda. Student support is never an easy area of policymaking, especially in an increasingly complex world of further and higher education, and I think that we need to be mindful of making hasty comparisons across the board. That said, however, I want to ask the minister three key questions. First, in relation to the increase in bursary support for the poorest students in higher education, the minister is stating that this will rise from 1,875 to 2,000, but in 2013 the figure was 2,640, so the 2,000 will still be 640 below what it was five years ago. Can I ask whether the minister really believes that that is acceptable? Secondly, could I ask the minister to explain why the full range of changes are not going to be made until 2021, when the Scottish Government has the power to make those changes before then? Thirdly, in relation to part-time students who have made very earnest representations to the Scottish Government that they should receive greater focus, not least because of their importance in expanding the flexibility of the economy, it is disappointing to see that they receive only scant mention at the end of the statement. Can I ask the minister to at least explain the principles that she is examining for part-time support? Can I begin with the aspect around part-time students? It is a very important one. The review that was chaired by NGN Angadia did not look at part-time students, and that was something that they could have done, but they had a great deal, as the member has said. It is a very complex area, so that is an area that they did not get round to, and they have asked the Scottish Government to look at. We will do that during that consultation process that I mentioned that will begin later this year. I am afraid that the member is incorrect. We simply do not have the powers to be able to enact much of those changes themselves. Many of it will require changes from the student loans company. Some of it will require changes at a UK Government level. That is particularly around looking at the loan that we are looking to build for Scottish students, because that will have to be a distinctly separate offer. We simply do not have the ability within the legislation powers that are devolved to the Scottish Parliament to be able to do that. When it comes to the level of higher education, bursary changes were made in 2013-14, which focused on the level of funding in its totality that was made available to students. That was something that was done at the time with the support of NUS Scotland, but I recognise that times have moved on from that. That is exactly why we are taking the steps today, to increase the bursary for the poorest students moving into higher education, listening to some of the concerns that have come from NUS Scotland. My thanks to the minister for early sight of her statement. There are indeed some things to welcome here, the raising of the care leavers bursary and more consistent support at last for FE students. The review wanted to see a shift in balance from loans back to grants for HE students, but the Government told them that they must abide by financial restraints. However, they still have a core recommendation, which was that all students should have access to the equivalent of the real living wage £8,100. That was not an ambition, minister. That was a hard recommendation of your review. Why has the Government refused to provide that support for students in general? Meanwhile, as Liz Smith pointed out, the increase in HE grants does not even restore them to what they were in 2013. In real terms, in fact, over £3,000 when the Government slashed those grants by 35 per cent, no matter how you dress this up. This is the Government that promised to abolish debt and doubled it instead, and yet again it is going to pile even more debt on to students. Why won't the minister just do the right thing and restore grants to the levels that the SNP found the map when they came to power? I think that I would have some more time for Ian Gray's statements and questions about this. If, during the budget negotiations that we went through this, the Labour Party came forward with one call to actually make this happen, and not based on the fantasy figures relying on numbers where we couldn't even raise the money that the Labour Party had wanted. When the Labour Party comes forward with credible options for public finance, I will take more seriously their call for the Scottish Government to spend more money. We are delivering on the Scottish Government's manifesto commitments that we made at the last election, which was based around the income threshold and was based around the terms of the loan. That is being done. We are looking very seriously at how we can help those, as I have said, once again during the statement and in questions to Liz Smith about how we can address the concerns around some of the poorest families about how they can access higher education. That is why we are taking the steps of introducing more than £21 million additional support for financial support during this parliamentary term focused on those poorest students, and that will have an effect and a reassurance to them that we are taking their concerns very seriously. Jenny Gilruth is to be followed by Alison Harris. As the minister outlined in her statement, NES Scotland has long campaigned against the postcode lottery effect in terms of further education bursary support, can she expand any further on how today's announcement will put an end to that, and, crucially, how those changes will be communicated to our students to ensure that the most vulnerable do not miss out? I remind members that I am the PLO to education secretary. It will be a welcome development that we are looking to ensure that we have a guaranteed bursary that is available for further education students. Part of the concern that came through, not just from NUS Scotland but from other members of the review group, was the postcode lottery effect. That is why we have taken the decision to ensure that all eligible full-time students in further education that are over 18 will have that guaranteed bursary, and that will make a great deal of difference to them. It will only make a great deal of difference to them if we can highlight to them the availability of that funding, which is why we are also investing in improving the information advice and guidance that is coming through, because the review once again heard how very complex the system was and how that put people off coming into courses, particularly within further education. The work that SAS is undertaking for online portal for student finance will be very important as we develop that and encourage students and their families to have up-to-date information about what is available for them. I welcome the commitment that was made to look at providing more support for disabled students and carers. Can the minister outline what principles will underpin that commitment and whether that will affect their access to existing support, such as the disabled students allowance and the loan parent grant? I am very much looking forward to the consultation that will happen later this year, because we are looking at all the barriers that will impact on disabled students and on carers. Some of them will be financial, but not all of them will be. It is important that we look at for each demographic of students to find the specific barriers that are affecting them. The principles behind that consultation are to ensure that we are looking at the specific needs of individuals and within groups of students. We already, as the member said in her question, support students with disabilities through further and higher education, but we need to ensure that they are getting that money in the right way and in a timely way, because one of the other issues that has been brought up is that students are perhaps receiving that support too late once they start. That is why I am very determined to look at all the barriers and not just the level of funding that is in place. I note the minister's comment that she shares the ambition of the review to achieve student support at the level of the real living wage. Can she outline the timescale and staging posts on the way to her realising that ambition? Given the financial pressure right now when people are making a decision whether to go to college or university, can she explain why the changes in bursaries will not be implemented until this time next year, and will she explain why the important and straightforward issue of raising the threshold for the repayment of student loans to £25,000 will not happen until 2021, a full three years away? Why are those changes being implemented— That is too many questions, please, minister. It is simply not a straightforward decision for government to be able to take this forward, because, as I said in my response to Liz Smith, it requires an entirely different student loans package to be built up by the student loans company. That is therefore not our timescale, but the earliest opportunity that the student loans company has said that it would have to do it. England did it last year, as Ian Gray said, and it has a much higher interest rate to go with that. It is simply unachievable to be able to do this at a different time frame, unless the Labour Party are suggesting that we take that higher interest rate, which is already impacted on students. However, I will ensure that this is done in as quickly a way as we can deliver on it. The year that is required to introduce the bursary changes is, again, a legislative requirement to ensure that that is done, and then that will be done for the next academic year directly after that. The decisions for bursaries and for loans for future years will be taken as part of the budget process. George Adam is to be followed by Andy Wightman. Can the minister tell us what discussions the Scottish Government had with the commissioner for fair access regarding further work on student finance? The commissioner did not look at student finance as the commissioner for fair access had requested that he did, because there was a significant review on going under Jane Angadia's chair. The commissioner did meet with Jane Angadia a number of times during that review. However, he will now consider whether further work is required in that area, but, as the commissioner is independent for Government, his work plan and his timetable for that will be for him to advise Parliament rather than me. I welcome the minister's commitment to more support for higher and further education students with additional support needs. Following her response to Liz Smith, does the minister agree that more part-time college courses are a key means to making access more inclusive? Can she confirm that the specific question will be part of the consultation with learners? Part-time college courses are exceptionally important, particularly for more mature learners, and that is exactly why they continue to hold the majority of courses that we raise in our colleges. The Scottish Government is committed to ensuring that part-time students have the advantages both within further and higher education to be able to take up those courses. That is something that we are determined to look at within the consultation, because I am very determined to ensure that it is not just young learners who can access part-time courses but returners to education as well. Willie Rennie to be followed by Ruth Maguire. I, too, welcome aspects of the report, including the provisions on mental health, but also raising the repayment threshold. We have heard about the level of debt and how it has increased in recent years. Does the minister think that there is a connection between that and the access from pupils, from students, from disadvantaged backgrounds to university? Is that the reason why it has fallen? It is very important that we look into what we can do for the different demographics of students, as I said in earlier answers. That will also ensure that we are responding to the needs of students who are coming from families who perhaps do not have a background in higher education and perhaps from some of the poorest families. We have focused our work therefore and the Government's response to that in ensuring that we deliver for students who are coming from some of the poorer households. That is why the increases that we are making to busery and to the income threshold are so important in that process. Ruth Maguire to be followed by Murdo Fraser. I warmly welcome the Government's commitment to increase support for our care experience students, acknowledging the significant barriers that they face, not just accessing but remaining in education. Would the minister agree that we have a special responsibility to our care experience young people, since, for many of them, we will continue to have a parental role in their lives after they leave care? I very much recognise the challenges that have been faced by care experience students when they are accessing further and higher education. I would like to put on record my thanks to Who Care Scotland for the time that they have spent with me and for the time that the care experienced students have spent with me in talking through the difficulties and the challenges that they have faced in accessing further and higher education. I am pleased that they are satisfied with the work that is on-going so far. That does build on the First Minister's commitment to care experience young people. We recognise that within the Scottish Government and our agencies that we have to recognise our responsibilities. That is why the Scottish funding council and SAS are taking that on to ensure that, when we are developing new services, we are doing so with care experience students and care experience applicants taking part in the processes in which we make those changes so that we can deliver on something that benefits our young people as they go forward into our colleges and universities. Murdo Fraser, to be followed by Ivan McKee. The minister talked about her party's record in government on student support. When will the 2007 manifesto commitment to wipe out all student debt to be delivered, or was there just another empty pre-election promise? The Scottish Government was elected with commitments to decrease the terms of loans and increase the threshold for loans, and we are delivering on that today. Ivan McKee, to be followed by Kezia Dugdale. Can the minister outline what impact the education maintenance allowance, which was scrapped south of the border, is making to those from our most disadvantaged communities, such as in my constituency of Glasgow Proven? We widened the eligibility for education maintenance allowance in January 2016 to ensure that more students from lower-income households could take advantage of the financial support and remain in education. As a result of those changes, the widened criteria has made a real impact on the number of young people who would otherwise not have been supported. There has been a big increase in the number of EMA recipients from the 20 most deprived areas, so 36.8 are now from those areas up from 34.9 previously. Kezia Dugdale, to be followed by Tom Arthur. It is cater's week, minister, so I am wondering why there is nothing in the statement for our students with caring responsibilities, but why the delay, and when will she fulfil the promise that she made to students with caring responsibilities? That was also an area that the review of student support did not look at in detail, and that is why I have committed to ensuring that the Scottish Government will take on consultation later this year. However, that does not mean that we are not looking to see what we can do to improve the situation. Indeed, this morning, I attended a fair access conference run by the Scottish Funding Council, and it heard directly from individuals with caring experience and the impact that that has been having. That course was widely attended by many people from across the university and college sector. We are looking to see what can be done in the short term, but we will look closely at what comes back from the consultation to see if there are other changes to policy that require to be made. Can the minister outline any plans that the Government has to highlight those changes to our students to ensure that they are receiving the support that they will be entitled to? That is where the Students' Awards Agency Scotland will do a great deal of work with students as they apply for funding in future years. It is very important that we make this complex area further in higher education support as simple and as accessible in relation to information as possible. I will look forward to the online portal that will provide that later in the next couple of years. Thank you very much. That concludes our statement. I thank the minister and members for their succinct questions and replies. We will move on to the next item of business, but we will take a few moments to change seats for the minister.
