When it's all said and done, which duo will have more championships? You and Pat or Clay and Steph? We got some work to do. We're on an uphill battle, especially when you talk about what the Warriors have been able to do. Unfortunately, I've seen quite a few daggers for the Golden State Warriors being a Cavs fan throughout my day, but Cavs and 7 anyways. But I think at the end of the day, Pat Mahomes is definitely gonna find a way to get more than four championships. Hopefully I'm still along for the ride by the time he gets there.

They didn't have enough, I think the money was good I didn't want to be a pencil But you are serious If you hold a press conference you give me a WIMP I don't want to be in an office You see when you are here you are in a dresspallet you are in it You are here to join the WIMP No, but it was not a song I thought it was a concert I don't know if it's true or not.

No, it's not a matter of your seeing. It doesn't mean just because I'm a panelist here at Y, I end up performing in Hollywood. One gets reason why I'm here. It's me, punish me. How many Tanzanian, how many rules, I don't know how to say it, I'm a religious person. And somebody made fun, I posted on the phone that I'm a religious person in Tengenizo. I'm a religious person in Tengenizo. In Africa, I'm from Tubaanga, from moving in religion.  I don't want to be a religious person. I'm not a religious person. I'm not a Tanzania. I'm a talent. I'm a religious person. I'm not a Christian person. I'm just a woman. I'm just a woman. I'm not a Christian person. I'm just a woman. I'm just a woman. Gigi on the other side, Gigi has power. Ok, I think she was banned from releasing new music or performing for 6 months and a fine of 1.5 million I love your concert How much did you get? 1.5 million 46,000 You are the person who made me cry I am a singer I am a singer I am a singer I am a singer I am a singer That is the thing I am saying The issue of J.C. I like to differ with J.C. People are allowed to have their talent to whatever they want to But the issue, and that's why you have seen this TV bean band is because Now those who are airing this They have a responsibility at the same time If Gigi was performing alone And they didn't air Then Gigi would have been in trouble alone But this TV, they aired it Do you think they are targeting Wasafi? Because Wasafi is famed just the other day But you are also forced Was it 2 weeks or 1 week? 2 weeks 3 weeks ago So are they targeting them? I am pretty sure There are also other stations that have been banned But because Wasafi is the one that we know here Even clouds, they think clouds are banned But we discussed it here We may be here talking about That the other band is not as good as it should be And we love ourselves as we are That's the way of life I am 46,000 I am 46,000 I am 46,000 Your idea is not as good I am 45 If you have a chance I am here to help I am here to help I am here to help I am here to help I am here to do the house work Sama You are on your own You can't do housework You can't do housework But we bring a house When? We can't do housework I don't want to contract I don't want to pay you back You are talking about the job Anywho, back to the topic So who is the viewer? Just the viewers Let's do this You know we have so many stories to cover Can you go to the next story? Is that OK? Now, Luli Enga, Yujit Tanzania and singer Vanessa Mde Nigerian-American actor Retimi went live together on Vanessa's Instagram to say thank you to their fans for congratulatory messages as well as reveal their plans for their future. Now the two shared they would love to have a baby soon even though they are but still not sure when they'll officially get married. How happy are we for her by the way? On a scale of 1 to 10, Jesse. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm part of God because I'm thinking about the state I'm staying in. How happy are we for her? I'm 100%. The fact that we're not going to waste your time, I'm not going to sit at the end of the day. I'm not going to sit at the end of the day. I'm not going to sit at the end of the day. That was hard for him. That's it with Retimi for her and she's already engaged.  She was not even thinking about marriage because right now she's 33. You know what, maybe I'll not get married and that's okay. Let me focus on my career. Did you see the rock? What? I think we are happy from day one. Why is that here? Twelve carots. Twelve carots gold. This is to the couple. And they're congrats. Seriously. We don't mind. We're here to now wish you a happy birthday. All the best. What she has? Penalcopa.

This vibe of tutajua, tutajua to whatever, leave me. They're just not sure when the wedding will be. Celebrities, I'm reading in between the lines. We'll only to surprise you on the water to surprise. I don't want to be surprised. 33 is not a time for surprise. I'm happy. It's okay. Okay. I was saying the celebrities. That's 25 of March. Who saw that coming? Who saw that? I'm not going to say. I'm not going to say. I'm not going to say. So, like, a two-up to. After ten years. I'm not going to say. I'm not going to say. No. No. They're not. We are ready to commit. Miami baby. Let me just say this. We are very happy for Venetian's day This just means something Don't settle for less Just because Even men don't settle for less Let's go to our next story Months after staying home due to COVID-19 Schools have finally been re-opened And KOT took to the up to make fun of those going back to school Now one person they didn't forget about Is the Chesa Camaway hitmaker at 3 years And his fans took social media to beat him goodbye As they made fun of his clean, shaved head Now when we didn't get a video of Chiyo being shaved We still got a video of a young lady crying Well being shaved Let's have a look Jessy, Jessy, Jessy I remember we had, I don't remember Do you remember what you said about Dredd? I remember that we were in summer But I had a feeling I'd be in summer But I had a feeling I'd be in summer So I thought maybe I'd cut my braids What could have changed You spend a lot of time doing that But let me rule If there is a problem, it will be solved This is it Braids are the ones who take care of you And sing Honestly, like a guy Okay, I understand I remember that I understand We are a developing country No, it's not Before you go to other countries, if you work It will take a time But surely Imagine if you have a child Yeah Just because of their hair My hair won't do anything I feel like I'm going to get married No, you're not You're not If you're going to spend a lot of money It will cost you your life If you get married on Saturday You can't have money If you get married on Saturday You can't have any money You could have a honest life I think you can get money Everyone knows that But it's not an entertainment It's a style If you get married on Saturday You can't just have money You're going to ruin yourself You're going to ruin yourself No, it's not easy for you to get married I will say one thing, if we are a developing country and that is how developing countries behave, let us stay to be a developing country. By the way, when you guys were doing that, it was teaching us something that we'll never have if we don't go back to that truth. Unity, Kusaydiana, you people used to do those things together and it used to be very helpful. Number two, the kids that are going to school nowadays, you have that kind of independence and you think you can make it on your own. Life out here is no joke. Come down. You know the incident? Don't judge people for how they look right? I don't get to waste traffickers. Bald men were being killed because some people believed that it was not the kids that were working at the market because it was gold. Did you see my story? People are really crazy out here So, no one is safe If you think I'm lying, but then Google it Google the story, it's true Let's say some shout out We have so many people joining This is in Nivea Some people are watching this Eman Jens Yes, they are divorcing I don't know about them I'm not sure, but I'm going to separate I'm going to separate I'm from a Slovenian family I'm from Lallongo I'm from EEN I have a fantastic Octavian I have Eman Jens I'm from Ericomondia There's a private wedding Give a lady I'm going to get a microphone A microphone?

Hello everybody, Andrea Turewski here. So I have been a dental professional for about 17, almost 18 years. And you might wondering what exactly do I look at when I see a baby or a toddler even for their first dental visit? Often parents wonder, well, you can't really clean the teeth, you can't really do much, so what's the point? So as dental professionals, we look at so many things that can really help your child eat properly, sleep properly. So it's not just about the teeth all of the time. We are looking inside the mouth, we are looking at the lips, the tongue. We're asking you questions such as, does your child sleep through the night? Is your baby eating properly? Do they not like to eat? Are they giving you some troubles with that? Are they having trouble sleeping? It's actually not normal for a baby, as an example, to not wanna eat, to not wanna sleep, maybe they're having trouble eating. It could be because they have a tongue tie. It could be because they can't breathe properly and you need to sort of help them do exercises. Yes, you can help your baby do exercises to breathe properly. If they're breathing properly, they're now eating properly, they're now sleeping properly. Mom and dads are much happier. So it is such a good idea to have your first dental visit as a baby or a toddler. I tell parents at the very least age two, but I prefer to see even babies when they're born. Maybe not that soon, that might not be absolutely necessary, but it can't hurt. What I tell my patients is, if I'm coming to their house anyway, because I'm a mobile dental hygienist and I'm there to see the family, they just had a baby a couple of months ago, well, why don't I have a look at the baby too? I look at the lip, tongue inside the mouth. They probably don't have any teeth yet, although some babies are born with a tooth. Even if there's no teeth yet, I look at all of that. So I'm just gonna share my screen for a moment and give you guys some examples, just so you can kind of see what I'm talking about here. So can everybody see my screen? Okay, so basically you guys, so in a baby, here is a great example. Is your baby sleeping with their mouth? Open, that is not necessarily a good thing.  They aren't able to breathe properly.  In some cases, you can avoid orthodontics if things are done sooner rather than later. So I could be saving you guys $8,000 when your child becomes 13 and might need orthodontics. A lot of these problems can be corrected. In children, even in a baby, I look for tongue ties, okay? So if the baby or child can't really extend their tongue, so they're like trying to stick out their tongue as in this first picture, but they really can't, that can give them problems with eating.  If they can't move their tongue to the roof of their mouth, they're having trouble breathing through their nose. So the tongue tie, we might have to kind of snip that for them so that way the tongue has movement which promotes proper breathing. We also look for this lip tie, see that? So this is actually creating a space in between those two teeth. If there's a space there, the teeth aren't able to come in properly, either the primary teeth or the permanent teeth. If the teeth are having trouble coming in, they might come in too slow, they might come in too fast. Things are kind of shifting everywhere and then before you know it, parents are asking me, does my child need braces? Cause teeth are coming in all over the place. We can actually stop all of those problems from happening if they're caught early enough. Last but not least, we look for cavities. So in this picture here, I look for black spots, brown spots. Yes, if your child is one years old, two years old, they can get cavities. So I look for that. If we catch cavities in the early stages, they can be treated sometimes with a simple liquid that can actually kill the cavity and stop it from getting worse. But that liquid only works with tiny cavities. I talk about that more you guys and several other videos that I have, but feel free to ask me if you have any questions. So all of these problems we like to look for in children. So please do not hesitate to reach out.  I look for all of these things and I let you know if we need to change certain things to really help them eat, able to breathe through their nose, able to prevent cavities, the list goes on. So thank you guys for watching. Please let me know if any questions and I will talk to you guys very soon.


Welcome to WRC 19, the world radio communication conference here in Shamash Sheikh in Egypt, where I'm very pleased to be joining the studio today by Cecil McCain, who is the director of post-antelic communications for the Ministry of Science, Energy and Technology for Jamaica. Cecil, welcome to the studio. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Now I'd like to start off by just asking you a little bit about WRC 19. What are the kind of topics that are of most interest to you here and what's going to affect you most when you go home? Okay, so the topics of interest to Jamaica, the government of Jamaica, topics relating to IMT of course, the big topic here, and the satellite industry. I believe they present the opportunities and challenges for small island states such as Jamaica as we seek to ensure that what would have we call digital inclusion for the entire island. Jamaica of course is a small island but quite very mountainous in places and so getting the type of telecommunications infrastructure into the interior of the island sometimes can be challenging. So we have to look at all the various technologies that would give support to ensure that all our people can benefit from having digital inclusion through whatever the means are, either wired, wireless, satellite as the case may be. And what do you feel most confident in the moment in terms of the technologies? You know, I'm on the side of what's the most efficient cost effective. So whichever the technologies that I present, currently the majority of the island is covered by a mobile broadband like much of the world. So we hope that that technology in and of itself in terms of mobile broadband would be able to take the technology to as many people as possible. We're also looking at satellite broadband in and of itself to catch that last mile, to catch those persons who go off-road into interior areas where you have no network and so we can look at various, the opportunities that the various technologies present us as it relates to the various technologies. In terms of robustness and affordability as well? Of course, of course, of course. And what about in times of climate emergencies, et cetera? Certainly for small island states. We're in the Caribbean and natural disasters is very regular. We regulars have hurricanes which pass through the Caribbean and they affect Jamaica like every other Caribbean country on a regular basis and their impact can be quite traumatic in an instant. As a result, we are quite vulnerable as a small island state and so the technology itself can assist us not only with early warning but also in terms of recovery and coordination and so we see the work that is being done here as adding to that value, giving opportunities to ensure that we recover and we can mitigate as quickly as possible against these disasters as they occur. We also are in an earthquake zone, not as bad as Southeast Asia but we are also vulnerable to hurricanes as earthquakes as a natural disaster. So the other things that we are concerned about primarily hurricanes, earthquakes, but all natural disasters of course can be, we are concerned about, of course, the common disaster that is sneaking up on us is of course sea level rise and issue that we have to also be concerned because much of the country and certainly the population is at low altitude levels, close to sea level and so any significant sea level rise will certainly have a significant impact on our population and so we have to be concerned about those issues and examine ways in which we can mitigate using of course the technology as it presents us and of course the BRC is going to be looking at various technology support, support those items in particular the studies that are being done on the agenda item 10 which at the end of the day will hopefully 10 years in the future help us to get a greater understanding of this planet that we live on and ways in which we can make it more habitable for all of us. I was going to ask you in terms of the ITU study groups how vital are they to countries such as Jamaica? Very, very, you know one of the things that the ITU through the BRC presents, it presents an opportunity for through the study groups for there to be harmonisation in terms of the technologies for us to discover ways in which we can regulate the technology in a better way and therefore in doing so it allows for small countries, developing countries to use these resources in a different way as we seek to go towards digital inclusion. The cost of technology of course is going to be lowered because of this harmonisation and therefore it is more cost effective for countries that are supposed to implement technology to support our development and so what we now need to do as a country is to focus on the other side of the equation, the demand side. How do we provide our population with the skills, with the knowledge to use broadband technology which is the main driver at this point in time so that we can achieve digital inclusion. So those are where we can focus our technology, ensure that our youth, early childhood, secondary and primary education, even up to the tertiary level, that over the next 10 years we properly phase our educational systems such that the population and the majority of the population in the future would be able to take the opportunities that ICTs present as they come. What outcomes will make the most difference to you at the end of this conference? The harmonisation certainly, the harmonisation of frequencies. The cost of technology is certainly high for us and so being able to ensure that the devices, user devices themselves are cost effective for the everyday user. You know, the internet revolution has pushed services to the edge and so we now have devices at the edge which has to be cost effective for us to use and so it is one of the things that I believe as an outcome that as we look at the future the harmonisation efforts will ensure that devices, the cost of infrastructure are lowered such that it is easy to be introduced into our populations and that we can all benefit to the extent that is possible from what technology presents us, the opportunities that technology presents us. Well Cecil, thank you very much for sharing your insights and your perspectives here at WRC 19 and we wish you the very best and hopefully the very best outcome from this conference too. Thank you for having me. Thank you.


Good morning. Thank you, the Linux Foundation, for inviting me back to speak here today. And many thanks also to my colleagues in the Uber infrastructure team who helped me with this presentation. A special shout out to the network and software platform teams. I'm just here to talk about some of the great work that our teams are doing to build and manage a software-defined infrastructure at Uber scale. Today, I will first say a few words about who we are, and we'll also share some numbers to highlight Uber's growth and scale. I will then talk about a vision and some of our architectural principles for software-defined infrastructure. I will follow on by giving a few specific real-world examples of how we leverage software for automation and the infrastructure. And I will conclude by providing an end-to-end view of our global network. Who is Uber? Uber started in 2010 to solve a simple problem. How do you get a ride at the push of a button? A few years later, Uber was already operating in hundreds of cities around the world. By late 2015, we completed our 1 billionth trip. And in about six months later, we completed the next billion. And less than a year later, Uber had logged over 5 billion trips. In 2017 alone, we completed 4 billion trips. And as of now, about 15 million trips happen each day in over 600 cities and in 78 countries. Users of our platform today include over 75 million monthly active riders, as well as over 3 million global, 3 million active drivers globally. So while these numbers speak to the already significant scale of Uber, in terms of the overarching opportunity, today, ride-sharing accounts for only a low single digit percentage of total miles driven globally. In addition to our ride-sharing business, we have also been introducing new services that will continue to drive the growth of Uber. These and possibly new services in the future will also continue to set new requirements in our infrastructure in terms of scale, performance, resiliency, agility, and unit cost. So how do we make sure that our infrastructure can keep pace with such a rapid growth? The magic of the Uber app today is powered by a highly distributed software architecture that relies on a fault tolerant and highly available infrastructure. For us, the only way to be able to deliver the required levels of performance and availability is through software and automation. And in order to fully achieve the benefits of software-based automation, we must and always strive to use open standards-based technologies and avoid dependency on any single vendor across the entire infrastructure stack. This framework summarizes much of the work that we do on software-defined infrastructure. For us, a key enabler is to first build real-time or near-real-time visibility into the infrastructure state and then leveraging that information possibly augmented with additional insights from analytics and machine learning, we can then push the desired state of the infrastructure through programmatic interfaces. Now, let me spend a few minutes to put this into context and provide specific real-world examples of infrastructure automation. We use software throughout the entire infrastructure lifecycle at Uber to automate many things, from delivering forecasting models to doing capacity planning to provisioning infrastructure to managing all the changes that we perform to detecting incidents and providing alerting to mitigating and remediating things when things fail. In the interest of time, I will cover only four specific areas over the next few slides. For provisioning across our server and network environments, we leverage a number of homegrown software platforms to automate and orchestrate the entire provisioning process. This includes capabilities such as auto-discovery, where, for example, on the network side, we push intelligence down to the devices to enable a truly distributed self-discovery model and enable zero-touch provisioning. This also includes auto-validation of the state of the hardware, for example, to prevent bad devices from going into production. For automated change management, we also leverage a homegrown platform that serves as the source of truth for the desire and the state of the infrastructure. This platform also enables our engineers to define the infrastructure state in a vendor-agnostic way through the configuration data. And it's the data that drives the device configuration generations requiring no direct human interaction with servers or network devices. This platform also provides infrastructure as code capabilities so that changes are versioned with rollbacks, can be audited, reviewed, and ported across platforms, for example, between on-prem and cloud if needed. For auto-detection, we leverage a distributed and highly available platform. On the network side, we do both active and passive monitoring, leveraging streaming telemetry that gives us near real-time visibility into the state of the network, including our network reachability, network latency, packet losses, and link utilization. One area that we have found to be a little bit challenging in this space is the current vendor support for standard-based Yang models, and also lack of full support for OpenConfig. Auto-mitigation and auto-remediation are also areas where we heavily leverage software to improve our operational efficiencies. So when hardware fails, not only we have to ensure that the issue is mitigated quickly before it becomes a service-impacting incident, we also automate the back-end workflows to automatically generate troubleshooting and or RMA tickets. If needed, we can also do auto-diagnostic tests, auto-remediation tests, and perform failure prediction functions, for example, by monitoring specific metrics or by running specific playbooks. So we do a lot more on software automation than what these four slides covered. I will not have time to cover all of those, unfortunately. But one other aspect that I want to talk about is the fact that when you rely on software to automate your infrastructure, you have to be sure that that software is thoroughly tested. And our approach to doing that is to create a test environment that can not only provide the capabilities needed to do the traditional software test cycles, such as feature testing, regression testing, integration testing, but also enable us to deploy and use the tested software to provision, monitor, and configure the test environment itself. So I will now talk for a few minutes about the global network starting with the data center. So for us, network is a foundational layer of infrastructure and a key enabler for our business. As such, network resiliency with the focus on deterministic failure behavior is one of our top design principles. Operational efficiency is also a key objective, meaning that the network has to be simple to build and also be flexible and cost effective. This is an example data center design, which in this case is based on a six-plane multi-stage cost apology. Starting from the bottom, rack switches for server aggregation, pod switches to connect the racks, fabric switches for connectivity between pods, and then external fabric switches for connectivity toward a data center aggregation layer, and then an edge pod for connectivity toward when and redundant pops. This design is quite flexible in that its specific implementation can be fine-tuned and adjusted across many dimensions. For example, depending on requirements on oversubscription, size of failure domain, bandwidth capacity, or power, or the need to scale across multiple fabrics. Now, here are some examples of how this design could be implemented in different ways. In the simplest scenario, you can imagine one campus with one building or data center and one fabric connecting to the external world. Or you can have multiple buildings or data centers on the same campus and multiple campuses within a metro area. In this example, one edge domain is shared between two fabrics in two different buildings. And similarly, you can have additional fabrics deployed across different buildings and different campuses connected through a data center aggregation layer with resilience, redundant, low-latency fiber. With this design, you can now have availability zones where each zone is an independent failure domain, which means that availability zones do not share a common physical failure domain, which could be a network hardware and the edge pod or racks or power or cooling. And once you have availability zones, you can combine zones that are in nearby physical locations, typically a few milliseconds apart, into regions. And from an availability perspective, these regions can now effectively function similarly to cloud provider's regions. And your software developers and your software teams can now deploy these availability zones seamlessly between on-prem and on-cloud environments. Our global network includes not only the data center network in POPs, but also the metro as well as backbone networks that connect POPs and data centers together. We also have an access network for our R&D sites. Across each of these domains, we are working on a technology roadmap and look into next-gen technologies and would love to work with this community on solving some of these big challenges together. On the access side, we are looking into SD-WAN and next-gen capabilities to support full line rate crypto at 100 gig at the right price point. In the metro, we are leveraging DWDM for more flexible and scalable connectivity at the lower unit cost. On the backbone side, and generally in the WAN space, we are moving away from static and long-term contract models toward a more flexible approach, preferably SDN-controlled, on-demand spectrum as a service. We're also exploring ideas and future models where regional and long-haul bandwidth could be more on-demand and usage-based, like cloud services, where carriers would serve as spectrum brokers. One key enabler here will be the upgrade adoption of flex grid open-line systems by carriers. Finally, on the DC side, on the data center side, in addition to the software-defined capabilities that I mentioned, we are also looking into server ODM and a modular rack design to support multiple server types, for example, across compute, storage, and AI and machine learning with GPU and FPGA. We're also looking at network disaggregation in the data center, which, as my last topic, I'm going to cover over the next two, three slides. So with merchant silicon taking over networking, there is a great opportunity, especially in the data center space, to look into the disaggregated model to separate network hardware and network software. And with the great work that is happening in the industry, this model can not only bring significant cost savings, it can also enable a much faster pace of innovation, especially if you're considering building your own network OS versus leveraging a third-party NAS. This would also allow you to quickly develop features in ways not currently possible with the OEM model.  First and foremost, you have to ensure that you get feature parity with this NAS solution. You have to think about the hardware abstraction, architecture, and design that works best for you. Should it be kernel agnostic where introducing changes and adding support for new hardware can probably be less risky? You have to think about the code support model that works best for you. Should it be user-managed versus vendor-managed? And who should do the feature enhancements, the patches, the vulnerability management work? And also, you have to consider and ensure that the software has reached the level of maturity that can now be put in your production environment. And last but probably most importantly, you have to make sure that this new solution is fully ready for operational deployment. With that, thank you very much for your time. I'm now happy to take questions. Justin, glad you were able to come back again this year as Uber rather than Visa. I was fascinated last year that you developed the plan for SD-WAN as a critical part of the Visa network structure. And now I see you considering SD-WAN again for the access for Uber. Why? Can you give us more details? What kind of options are you considering? And can you talk about vendors that you're considering? What are your decision criteria for choosing an SD-WAN approach? Thank you, Michael. Great to see you again. Thank you for the great question. Yes, SD-WAN really, the use case remains the same. How do you leverage software to manage remote sites in an automated way? And how do you make sure that config changes or bringing up these devices can be managed through software? So in this case, at Uber, we have some of our R&D sites that generate a lot of traffic. And some of the SD-WAN solutions that we have looked at cannot easily support 100 gig, if at all, and enable full line crypto. And the current pricing models and cost structure for some of the SD-WAN solutions are not where we want them to be at this point. So we are working with the community and vendors to make that happen. And the use case, as I mentioned, remains the same. At Uber, we have a number of remote sites. And our teams are trying to find a way to be able to bring these new sites quickly and manage all the initial configurations through software and push the subsequent changes through software and manage the whole environment remotely in a centralized way through software. Thank you very much for your question. Yeah, one more question. This is more along the lines of scalability of the applications. What have you learned as you've ramped up quickly on microservices ability to scale on performance and those kinds of things? I'm sorry, can you repeat the last sentence, please? Yeah, what have you learned on the ability on the app side for microservices to scale in both manageability and performance as you've ramped up? That's a great question. So at Uber, as I mentioned, we have a highly distributed software architecture that actually is based on a very large number of microservices. And what we have learned from the network and infrastructure side is that, as I mentioned, these microservices rely on a fault tolerant and highly available infrastructure. And a lot of the traffic that is generated in the data center is because of a lot of the kind of traffic exchange between these microservices. From our perspective, from the network and software platform perspective, we need to ensure that those requirements are well understood and that the infrastructure can actually support the growth of these microservices across different data centers but also on cloud. So that's kind of my quick answer to your question. Happy to discuss offline after my talk. Please? Hi, Cliff Grossner, IHS Market. Good to meet you. We just finished a study for the Open Compute Foundation. And I was wondering if you could give a little bit more color on some of the parameters and some of the considerations around the ODMs you're looking at for servers, some of the decision-making criteria, and also for Whitebox. For example, are you looking at an Open Compute design or certified design that you might modify for yourself? That's a great question. On the Whitebox, I can tell you that right now we are looking at ways to first enable a disaggregated model. So the roadmap would be from OEM to a network Whitebox solution based on third-party NAS and commodity hardware. And then considering building an Uber NAS possibly depending on the use case and other factors. And then you can also imagine that the next and ultimate stage would be to do ODM on the network device, similarly to the work that is happening on the server side. I hope I answered your question. Thank you. Great. With that, thank you very much again and thank you very much, Arpit. Thank you.


So, let's get started. This is the title of the talk. And I'm grateful to the opportunity for having the chance to try to kind of gather together some of the things that I've learnt while working for Alt and before. For those who are not connected with the association and they're bound to be people in the room who aren't, I stopped being chief executive of Alt in May. And for the past couple of years, my credit card with its expiry date on the 7th of July, which I've used most days, has reminded me that by the 7th of this year, July this year, I'd have got a changed kind of work situation. And this is my 12th Alts conference. And it's the last one in which I have had any kind of production role and a minor one at that. So, this is a sort of reflection that is, I was asked to make it personal. And that's what I'm going to do. These are the points or the areas I'm intending to cover. You can read them. And I intended to include some credits and references at the end, but I ran out of time, but I'll put them on later. So what got me into it, the older I get, the more I realise that this hadn't expected to happen at all. The more I realise that you need to know about people's antecedents. So, I'll have to jump this very weird. I should, I'm going to do it. If I can, my dad left Berlin in 36 and came via that geographical route to London in 46. My mum left Uruguay in 45 arriving in London then. And you can see where I've lived and I finished up in Sheffield in 76. In 1976, I followed friends to Sheffield and I got drawn into the work of an organisation called the British Society for Social Responsibility in Science, which had at that time a two sort of strands of work. One was against chemical and biological warfare and new means of social and political control. In relation to work hazards. And I got a dream job in 1979 at Grenville College in Sheffield and my role was to develop and run courses about occupational safety and health for trade union representatives. This will make you smile. Anybody here who works for or has worked for Sheffield Hallam University. So on the left is Bill Owen, after whom your bill, your own building is named, and who was chair of the Sheffield Education Committee and chair of the governing body at Sheffield City Polytechnic before it became Sheffield Hallam. And in the centre is Len Murray, who was the general secretary of the TUC in 1981. This is the opening of Sheffield Trade Union Studies Centre. And in the background is some 1981 learning technology, which some people in this room will never even have seen, but a roller board was what we had to work with. Some of my students is Maurice Birch, who was, at that time he was convener on the building of the flue gas desulfurisation plant at Drax Power Station, talking to Greg Douglas, who was an official in the construction and engineering union. This is Betty, I don't remember her second name, who was a noopy shop steward in the laundry at Northern General Hospital. Kay Bergin of Naogo, who now part of Unison, led a very long strike in Sheffield Council against the introduction of what were then called quaintly visual display units. And I always remember her as having done that, and they negotiated an agreement that limited the minimum size of screens that they were allowed to work on, diagonal size and built in breaks of 20 minutes for every hour of use of their device. Anyway, it didn't last very long. So, now the connection with learning technology. This is the mouth of the VA tunnel that goes under Pyrenees, under the Pyrenees highest mountain. It was the longest tunnel road tunnel in the world until 1964, five over five kilometers. And I biked to it and through it in 85 with my friend and colleague Andy for AirClough. He worked the TUC education service, and I worked in the Australian Studies Centre in Sheffield, and it was 160 miles to get to the tunnel from where we'd stayed the previous day, very up and down, and on that day we had a very long conversation on the kind of flat bits about technology and its use by union representatives for organizational purposes. And essentially that's when I kind of first started to think about these issues. I got drawn in by the TUC into developing training materials for trade union representatives in their use of technology. And a bit later on I was asked to represent the TUC in making and running an online course, pre-web, this is early 90s, for shop stewards in Denmark, Sweden and the UK about European integration. And I think anyone that's been involved in online distance learning will relate to this, which is a posting by a learner, and I'd like you to read it. And I thought, can you read it at the back? Because if you can't I'll read it out. You can read it. And I think it's not too extreme to say that this posting had a very, very sort of strong effect on how I thought that learning technologies I now know it to be called could have an influence, a beneficial one on teaching and learning. And this caused me to start banging on about it in a very energetic way, everywhere I could. There's a phrase that the squeaky wheel gets the most oil. And the upshot was that I got a job in the same institution, which by then was the largest FE college in Europe, or claimed that it was the largest FE college in Europe, as its learning technology development manager, with the added advantage that I reported directly to the principal, which is a completely unstandard way of operating, but it meant that I was able to get things done for a period of time. And the first thing that we got done was the creation of a course called Learning to Teach Online. This was post-web, but only just post-web, and it was a wholly online course about how to be an online tutor, and it was very successful, particularly due to the input of several people who in a perverse way later became very involved in the association, including Fred Pickering, the treasurer who those of the AGM would have seen yesterday, and Dick Moore, who is a trustee now of ours, and a woman called Julia Douglasby, who was closely involved in the creation of the Certified Membership Scheme that out now has. And very unusually we had, and we decided to do this, we had tutors delivering this course in Canada and in Australia as well as in the UK, so we had all three time zones covered, and this sort of meant that learners could get very, very good support wherever they were based, and we got a lot of international students as a result of it. The other thing that Leto had, and I think Jonathan Darby will relate to this and others in the room, was a very unusual copyright statement, which I put on it as a sort of whim. I had control, so I thought, and I had been an article in The Economist featuring David Wiley, who was then in his early 20s, who'd invented or come up with this thing called an open content license, which kind of appealed to me. So I put an open content license on the Leto course, which, and this open content license is a kind of, is the precursor of a Creative Commons license, many years before Creative Commons became an organisation and was created. And as a result of that, I kind of always known that you can make your content open and it doesn't cause people to steal it. And this course was very successful, it was making lots and lots of money and we were public about that fact, but nobody ever nicked the materials. There wouldn't have been nicking them, we allowed them to, because the thing that we were doing well, which they couldn't really nick, was a kind of approach to managing it, to running it, to building the team, to getting the whole thing to hang together. And for that reason, I think that what this was proving was that be relaxed about openness. There were spin-offs and this is topical. In 2002, by that time I didn't work for the Sheffield College, I'd left, just left, I'd been made redundant in a sort of amicable way. The Sheffield College ran an English GCSE online course and if you've any familiarity with exam rates that have been published now, those are astonishingly good GCSE results and they're continued to this day to be achieving those kinds of pass rates and grade rates on their online GCSE course. I put a link there to the first faltering issue of my fortnightly mailing, which because I was out of work and intending to be an independent consultant for as long as that was the option. I produced fortnightly mailing and it was just Googling for these results that I landed yesterday on me reporting the results from 2002. Anyway, so that year I was working as an independent and this job came up with ALT as its executive secretary, a halftime post that I knew fitted my experience like a glove. And I'm not going to now go into kind of history of my working for ALT because it would be boring as hell and I'm also eight minutes behind the planned scheduled point at this point. So I'm going to sort of switch forward and really race through this. Meanwhile, I think it's important for you to see sort of other things that were going on. These are snapshots. I did a lot of mountain walking. The dog owner cared about his Alsatian's eyes at this hut in the Pyrenees and had him with snow goggles on the warden of the hut. I've done a load of Nordic skiing as much as I possibly can and I do want to just dwell on this because I'm at the front here. This is climbing Norway's highest mountain, Glitterheim. I'm at the front but I'm keeping very clear of the edge and I think that's a kind of bit of advice for managers really. Just stay clear of the edge. My kids became young men, unlike me and their mother, their kind of creatives of a particular kind. And during this period we had six administrations who varied very widely in how shall I say how good they've been. So now to some sort of technological stuff. Along this period, Moore's Law. This is Gordon Moore's original sketch from 65 showing how the price of transistors had fallen and how he predicted it would fall in the future. Moore's Law has been ticking away. And is the reason why we have the web in its current form. Just this quote from last month, this is from an article that Peter Norvig and Woody Mambo wrote in the Google search blog. Peter Norvig has spoken at a conference here in 2007 and I had a kind of vague association with him since that time. And I just think this is an astonishing, when you read this sentence, it's an absolutely astonishing kind of representation of Moore's Law in action. And not just, I mean you think the computing that got the Apollo to the moon, but this is the computing that got the whole Apollo program from end to end. So it's an even more astonishing statement. Now to some of the things I've learned. It's a disconnected list and when you're preparing at all like this, you always put too much effort into the front and then you get to this bit and you just have to kind of throw it together in a way which is a sense of which I've done. So first thing is the terms of engagement really do matter. And by that I mean the dignity of the doers. The issues like credit and attribution. And when pay is due. And rarely being unbending if you're running something. Roy P's diagram really stuck in my mind when I saw him give a talk representing it this is that learning is life wide and lifelong and that's the proportion of the time that learners spend in formal learning is absolutely tiny in comparison to the proportion that they spend in life wide and lifelong learning. There are some dreadful models of learning out there, which this is one, the kind of squirting it into the brain model to key points here learners, not teachers not content create the learning. In the next three minutes, I'm going to use bits of the next three minutes to dwell on just for you to have time to read these two fantastic statements one made at the 2007 out conference as it happens. There are such things as cornerstone ideas. And depending on what your work area is you need to find them. There's two from Herb Simon and Dylan William are examples but blooms no significant difference is another one Laura lards conversational framework, Missou's peer based learning. And you need to find them and sort of stick with them and don't assume that only the new is a cornerstone. You need to jump quite a long way to say, and it's really a connected point that there are such people as deep and leading thinkers who are worth seeking out and reading and all listening to. You shouldn't feel kind of ashamed about having that sense that. And I've listed. I put a couple there who personally I found to be incredibly influential, one who many of you will have heard of David Weinberger. But I guess many of you will never have heard of Richard Skem. Because his work in the 60s is pre Internet, although there is a website with some fantastic videos of his investigations of how children learn. And I think that's a terrible thing that people who've got their heads around things that absolutely matter for the design of learning just people to reinvent the same ideas. And we need to not have that happen. This is a flippant point coming up. And I'm going to stop as time has run out in a second, which is that people find brain images and neuroscience language more convincing. Than results that make no reference to the brain. So watch out for scientific papers with brain images. You're being being changed drawn away. So what I was then going to do was talk about what we need now to do. And I'm going to just give these 15 seconds each. This is a photo of somebody in a rare earth mine. Rare earths are central to the functioning of mobile phones. Be patient. The drive for world class competitiveness as a policy objective will dissipate. In fact, it already has been dropped from the business plan. If you look at the 2012 version, although it was there in 2011 writ large. I think we should push instead for world class collaborativeness. I just think that's a much more productive thing to be doing. And to have the confidence to bring our community's knowledge and experience to bear on the wider educational world. Do things at the right scale. I think points to using other people's services wherever possible because they're able to organize them at the right scale. There is this slide in the presentation, which is take too long to explain, but it's got enough notes to it in the bit that will be on the web for you to make sense of it. And I would be interested to get your feedback on it. Thank you.


Hey everybody, it's Brett and today I am super excited to go over this 2013 Shelby GT500. This is stock number 14506Z. I am here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, your new and used sports car headquarters. This 2013 Shelby GT500 Mustang has the 5.8 liter Trinity supercharged V8 engine. It puts out 662 horsepower and 631 foot-pounds of torque. This car has been fully safe and inspected by our service shop, has a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off for the state of Wisconsin inspection process and this car is 100% ready to go. I am going to go all the way around in this video. Inside, start it up, take a look under the hood, we are going to listen to the awesome exhaust on this car and I am just going to give you the most accurate representation that I can of the vehicle. Deep Impact Blue is the color. I shoot all my videos in 4K. If you like the videos, subscribe to the YouTube channel, click the bell notifications and get updates on the videos I do each and every day as well as have access to one of the largest catalogs of vehicle and sports car walk-arounds on YouTube and stay current on our ever-changing and vast sports car inventory so you do not miss out on gems like this one. This one has the SVT performance package in 2013. Of the 530 Deep Impact Blue Coupes, 450 of them had the SVT performance package which gives you the 19-inch wheels in the front, the 20's in the back. This one does have the Brembo brakes of course, no scuffs or scrapes on that wheel and this one comes with Michelin Pilot Sport AS tires. These are 265, 40 ZR19s in the front and these tires have I would say 90% of the tread left, very new tires on this car in the front. It does have the black stripes down the side, you get the Cobra logo there that looks really good. Front fenders in excellent shape, I didn't see any dents or dings on there. You get the HID headlamps, the LED running lights, the factory fog lights, we're going to turn all those on at the end of the video. The front bumper and lower valence are in really nice condition, didn't see any scuffs or scrapes on that lower valence, does have a front license plate on it. It was like that when we got it, you get the Cobra logo on the grill there or the lack of grill for a 13 and 14 to maximize cooling, they remove the grill in the center there. You get the black stripes on the hood, they are in a really nice condition, I didn't see any rips or tears or rock chips or anything like that. Coming around to the passenger side, front fenders in excellent condition, no dents or dings on there, and the passenger side front wheel, no major scuffs or scrapes. Deep Impact Blue, one of my favorite colors on the GT500s, in fact my GT500 is the same color, see it's got just a little bit of metal flake in it and looks really good. Paint is in really nice shape on this car, as you go down this side of this 2013, I'll be GT500, take note of how clean the body is, how reflective and mirror like that paint is. I take these HD videos so if you are far away or even if you're close by and you just cannot make the trip down but you're still interested in purchasing the vehicle, you can see the car, hear the car, and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here. So when you do get here there's absolutely no surprises, you can see that those stripes on the roof are in excellent condition as well, and down this side very, very nice and clean, no dents, no dings, the stripes on the side are all in very nice condition as well. This back wheel is in fantastic condition, no scuffs or scrapes, and the back tires have just about as much tread as the front tires. Now under here is a very important option, you can see that it is very clean under here, but right there is your rear diff, and that is a cooler line coming off of there. That means that this one has the track package, which was a pretty expensive option back in 2013, and in fact of the 530 deep impact blues there was 329 that had the track package on it. Coming around to the back, the rear bumpers in great shape, those stripes are in fantastic condition, the back fascia, there's no scratches or anything on that, the Shelby GT500 logo is in nice shape, and the stripes on the top of the trunk lid are in great shape as well. Spoiler looks really good, LED tail lamps. Now this one does have the Borla attack exhaust, it sounds phenomenal, but this car also comes with the factory exhaust, which is in that box right there in case you were wondering what was in that box. It is the factory exhaust, so I got some pretty cool stuff in here. I have a copy of the original window sticker, so feel free to pause this, I'm not going to go through everything, I'll just kind of show it to you. The track package here is a $2,995 option, and the performance package was a $3,495 option for this car, total MSRP was $61,485, and then this is the build sheet, so this tells you how many were built in each color and options and everything, there was 4,077 coupes built in 2013, and of that 530 were Deep Impact Blue, of that only 48 had the black with black accent stripes in them, which this car has, so this is a one of 48 car, and it's only one of 80 cars that had the 331 limited slip SVT racing stripes, 489, and the super cooling or the track pack, which was 329 were made of that, and then 450 had the SVT performance package, so the exhaust and this paperwork will be in the car when you come to buy it. We also have the tire inflator kit, and then the car cover that came with this car, it's not the Shelby one, but it is a car cover, so we're going to keep it with the vehicle. I always like closing the trunk lid from the plastic spot on the spoiler there, so you don't scratch the paint or the stripes, and coming around the driver's side just as clean as that passenger side, no major dents or dings on the rear quarter, and for full disclosure this back wheel is just as nice as the rest. This one does have the capitalist fuel fill, which is a really nice feature, never get gas on your hands, and going down the rest of this side of the car, just in very, very nice condition, no dents, no dings, the paint is in fantastic shape, once again the stripes are in really nice condition as well, and you get the power mirrors with the blind spot mirrors inside, you get those black on black bucket seats, leather with the suede inserts, you get the Cobra embossed on the back rest, side corner bags, once again one of 48 in deep impact blue with these particular seats, power driver seat with lumbar, and then the factory GT500 floor mats, launch control, that's for your dampers on the suspension, and then your steering feel, and then auto headlamps on there as well, power locks, power mirrors, and power windows, pretty simple car, to be honest, not a lot to it, back seats are in fantastic condition, this car has never been smoked in, you get the latch child safety system, the carpeting is absolutely perfect, we'll hop inside check out the miles, the radio, and everything that this one has to offer in the interior, and then we will start it up, listen to that exhaust because it is worth it, and then we'll take a look under the hood, you can see this one has 12,223 miles on it, you get your distance to empty on there, instrument cluster is very nice and clean, you get the leather wrapped and suede wrapped steering wheel, bluetooth and audio controls on the right, cruise controls and information center controls on the left, you get the Cobra logo on the center there, so it's leather, suede, suede leather, really nice condition, no scuffs or scrapes, or excessive wear, this one has the normal radio, CD player, AM FM and Sirius XM radio capabilities, you get

Bibliographies are a great place to find sources to use in your research and writing. The first step to using a bibliography to find sources is to determine what kind of source you need. Do this by looking for clues in the citation. Typical clues for a book include the author's name, the book title in italics, the date and place of publication, and a publisher or press. For a book chapter, you'll see the title of the chapter in quotation marks and the title of the book in italics. You'll also see the author's name followed by an editor's name. Now, the next step is to search for the book at your library. At UWM, we will start on the library's homepage. We are going to use the main search at UW search bar. I can enter two or three words from the title and the author's last name to begin the search. So, for Sheila Ruth's book Issues in Feminism and Introduction to Women's Studies, I will enter the author's last name, Ruth, and the first few words of the title, Issues in Feminism. Because I know I am looking specifically for a book, I can use the drop-down menu here to limit my search to items available locally at UWM, or I can choose to search the entire UW system. Next, I will click Go to begin the search. Looking at the first result, I see what looks like the right book, but because there are multiple versions available, I will have to click on the title to be sure. Here is the book I am looking for. I can see that it is available at the UWM libraries, and if I click on the Get It button, I can find the book's call number. The book's call number is kind of like its address, and it lets you know exactly where in the library the book is located. If the book were checked out or otherwise unavailable, you can always sign in for more options.


Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, PGPR, can be selected by screening bacteria for achieving the most promising isolates having suitable colonization and PGPR traits. This process should include selecting bacteria for achieving the highest colonization rates and PGPR traits. Additionally, it is important to study all the isolated bacteria in an economical way and select the best bacteria in terms of PGPR traits and high colonization rate. A simple screening method to detect endophytic and rhizosphere bacteria isolated from the plants in rotation with rice for rice PGPR agents based on a root colonization bioassay and a PGPR trait is characterized.

narcissistic abuse. This is a guide which tells you clearly how to recover from narcissistic abuse. They are techniques which I've learned myself and from others of my journey through recovery. First I'm going to talk about the three stages following the abuse. The first stage is being a victim of narcissistic abuse. At this stage you may have cognitive dissonance, two conflicting beliefs. You remember what the narcissist was like before they started abusing you and you wonder how could they be that kind caring person and also an abuser. As a victim you are going to feel hurt and confused. You may feel rejected if you were discarded by the narcissist. You may be in denial about all of the things they did to you. They managed to condition you to take responsibility for their actions. You may feel guilt and shame for allowing yourself to enter this kind of relationship. You may feel angry at yourself for wasting so much time on the narcissist. You may also feel victimized by your family and friends who believe you are crazy because they are not educated on narcissistic abuse. You may be fearful of the future financially or your children, fearful of the unknown future.  At this stage you may not be ready to forgive the narcissist. You may be struggling to rebuild your life. You may be seeking therapy or coaching. You may have difficulty trusting people. You may realize that there have been other narcissists in your life and your past or present. You will be learning self-care and self-love. You may be angry though not as much as the previous stage. You will still feel triggered by past events but you will also be feeling hopeful. You will learn self-soothing techniques. You will uncover your childhood traumas which led you to be in a relationship with a narcissist. You will rebuild your financial strength. You will develop a narcissometer, a feeling in your solar plexus area which is like an alarm when you are in the proximity of a narcissist. At stage free you will become a thriver. I'm not going to go into the stage now as this video is about recovery but I think it speaks for itself. Now I'm going to go into specific techniques that will help you to recover from a narcissistic abuse. At the beginning of your recovery it is very important to grieve not for the person you left at the end of the relationship but everything they showed you in the beginning. Remember that person, the image they portray to you, the mirroring and how they appeal to your own ideals. It was never real but it seemed real to you. That fantasy you both created together. You will need to grieve over that person. You will need to identify any denial that you still feel. Any cognitive dissonance. Identify what is right and what is wrong. You will feel angry. Allow yourself to feel this way. Allow yourself to feel whatever negative emotions you are feeling. But do not dwell on these emotions for long periods of time. Work on your self-esteem, self-worth and self-belief. The narcissist stripped away these qualities but you can't get them back through daily practice of some of the recovery techniques I'm going to mention. Practice deep breathing. Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds and then exhale for 8 seconds. This breathing exercise is a natural tranquilizer for the nervous system. Do not do this too frequently. Do not do this more than 4 breaths for the first month of practice.  Accupressure point. Feng Shi or GB-20 is recommended for headaches, migraines, eye blurriness, fatigue or cold flu symptoms. To use acupressure on this point, locate the point at the base of the skull with each thumb on either side of the bone. Use a deep, firm pressure towards the skull to massage and stimulate the area for 5 seconds. You can use this acupressure point while you are practicing the deep breathing exercise. Practice meditation or guided meditation. There are many great guided meditation videos on YouTube. I have created one myself and I have more to come. It takes your mind off ruminating thoughts and allows you to improve your awareness and focus. It provides emotional healing and spiritual awakening. Meditate on any traumatic events in your childhood or relationship but create your own ending, a positive ending. This will gradually eliminate any pain you might otherwise feel and even the need for closure. Imagine how you would like it to end. Imagine your ideal family member or relationship partner giving you the attention, love and acceptance that you required but never had. Affirmations. Positive affirmations are spoken and often repeated. They are used to encourage and uplift you. Positive affirmations are the language of the brain. Make a list of any negative thoughts you may want to remove. Then make it a priority in your list to identify what it is you want to work on. Write a counter argument to your negative thoughts. From this you can create your positive affirmation. Repeat your positive affirmation daily for at least five minutes. Here are three examples. I am worthy. I am lovable. I am good enough. Listen to relax music. We all have a few feel-good songs that we like to listen to when we are feeling down. Relaxing music can be used as a form of therapy. Music therapy. Music therapy can help to relieve pain and reduce stress and anxiety. It can even result in physiological changes including improved respiration, lower blood pressure, improved cardiac output, reduced heart rate and relaxed muscle tension. Aromatherapy. You can practice aromatherapy using essential oils. Aromatherapy can improve your psychological and physical well-being. Motivational speakers. Listen to Motivational speakers podcast or on YouTube. Motivational speakers can motivate you to take action and make a difference in your life. Sleep. Ensure you have plenty of sleep. At least seven hours of sleep every night. If you sleep on your side, place a pillow between your knees. It helps to support the natural curve of your spine. Try to sleep early. Sleeping early can help with weight loss, heart health and improved job performance. Diet. Drink plenty of high quality water. Eat at least three portions of vegetables per day and no more than two portions of fruit. Eat at least three meals with oily fish per week. Avoid foods which are high in sugar or salt. Exercise. Generally aimed to do 30 minutes of moderate to intense cardio activity at least five days per week. If you prefer vigorous aerobic activity at least 25 minutes three days per week. Use any anger or frustration you feel from dealing with a narcissist to motivating you in your exercise. You could even try martial arts or get a punching bag. There are long lists of benefits from doing exercise, many of which will assist you in your recovery from narcissistic abuse. A health promotion consultant once said that if exercise were a pill it would be one of the most cost-effective drugs ever invented. Practice self-awareness. Develop conscious knowledge of your character and feelings. Practice mindfulness. Mindfulness is a psychological process which involves bringing your attention to experiences incurring in the present moment. This can be developed through meditation. I like to practice self-awareness and mindfulness throughout the day. I will ask myself how are you feeling especially when I'm doing something I like. I will ask myself in my mind how does that feel. When I have food I like to smell the food first. When I put the food in my mouth I always have questions in my mind which allow me to practice self-awareness and mindfulness. I might ask myself how is this food seasoned? What is the texture like? How does it taste? This helps to keep you in the moment and it can help you to really enjoy your food instead of just going through the motions. That's the end of my list of techniques to recover from narcissistic abuse. I hope that they will assist you in your recovery. Recovery is not a quick process although it does depend on how long you were in the relationship and how severe the abuse was. I have read that it can take at least one year to recover from narcissistic abuse. That's if you are practicing these techniques every day but don't see recovery as something you don't really want to do.  Actually enjoy the practice of the techniques. You will find that it can be very enjoyable and it will improve the quality of your life.


Are you Aiken? Yep, yep. For some bacon. Yep, yep.  Yep, yep.  Hey, huh, Depolis! Bacon. Oh, no! I'll take my bedazzledo.  I'm Reng. Insta-Proud Twitter! It's so interesting. Bring the mail to me, bottom of the notifications, go all.  BAM! Follow us on personal YouTube channels, link in the description below. Woo! Here are active videos called All the Wars Fought by India. That, not one of them may start it, folks. But this is from their inception as India. They don't pick a fight, but they'll finish them. So like from 1947 to the present. Obviously, India as a whole has been in more wars than that. And we know, obviously, India has not instigated any wars. Correct. We are aware. So this is a little informational video. It's just about the ones from 1947. So I'm guessing India, Pakistan multiple times. Yeah. And there's been many. One in China, right? And I think it depends on what you go through here, because there are military incursions that have taken place that weren't declared wars. It's a specific war. Yeah. So there's, you know, there's. Also, once again, always with these informational videos. If the information is incorrect, it is not our fault. We did not make it. We were just sent this and we're hoping the information is accurate. And if kindly correct, correct us. If the information is wrong. Yes. So I just want to, I always stress the way that, because we always get yelled at. It's true. Here we go. It's with her neighboring countries. Oh, wow. That's a voicemail. Today in this video, we are going to discuss all the wars in India in these dark. Okay. Number six, Indo-Pakistan War of 1947 to 1948. When were they? 4747. That was right. The Indo-Pakistan War was formed between India and Pakistan over the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir. Because of the. Divide? 1948. The result of the war was inconclusive. However, most neutral assessments agree that India was the victor of the war, as it was able to successfully defend about two thirds of the Kashmir, including Kashmir Valley, Jammu and Ladakh. The inconclusive result of the war still affects the geopolitics of both countries. Territorial changes. UNC's Fire Line of 1949, later becomes Line of Control after the Simla Agreement of 1972. Pakistan controls roughly a third of Kashmir, whereas India controls the rest. Kashmir Valley, Jammu and Ladakh. Casualties and losses. India, 1,100-plus soldiers killed. Pakistan, 6,000-plus soldiers killed. Number five, Indochina War of 1962. Indochina War was a war between China and India that occurred in 1962. A disputed Himalayan border was the main pretext for war, but other issues play a role. A series of violent border incidents occurred after the 1959 event uprising, when India had granted asylum to the Dalai Lama. The war ended when China declared a ceasefire on 20 November 1962, and simultaneously announced its withdrawal to its claimed Line of Actual Control. The Indochina War was also noted for the non-deployment of the navy or air force by either the Chinese or Indian side. Why would the navy be deployed? The result of the war, China's victory. Territorial changes. China captures Aksai Chin. Casualties and losses. India, 3,000-plus soldiers killed. China, 700-plus soldiers killed. Number four, Indo-Pakistani War of 1965. Pakistan War. The 17-day war caused thousands of casualties on both sides and witnessed the largest engagement of armored vehicles and the largest tank battle since World War II. Really? India lost around 540 square kilometers of land, primarily in Ranavkutj, while Pakistan lost around 1,800 square kilometers. Hostilities between the two countries ended after a United Nations-mandated ceasefire was declared. Hmm. Result? Inconclusive, both sides claimed victory. United Nations and the ceasefire. Is that every war between them? No permanent boundary change. Casualties and losses. Neutral claims. India, 3,000-plus soldiers killed. 150-plus tank slots. 60-plus aircraft slots. Pakistan, 3,800-plus soldiers killed. I didn't realize it's no idea the biggest tank battle since the Great Wars. Nope, didn't know that. I'm sure there's movies about it. Number three, India-China military conflict of 1967. It's just me, India-China and India-Pakistani. Well, it was not a war but a conflict. Right. Conflict location. Nathula and Chola on the border between China and Sikkim. Result, Indian victory. China was pushed back from Sikkim. Casualties and losses. India, 88 soldiers killed. China, 340 soldiers killed. It'd be a long video if this was America. Number two, Indo-Pakistani war of 1971. It just keeps going back and forth. Mm-hmm. During the war, Indian and Pakistani militaries simultaneously clashed on the eastern and western fronts. Pakistan. That was what it was called. That was the command of the Pakistan military to sign the instrument of surrender on 16 December 1971 in Dhaka. Marking the formation of East Pakistan as the new nation of Bangladesh. Results, decisive Indian victory. Territorial changes. Eastern front. Independence of East Pakistan as Bangladesh. How do you explain this? Western front. Indian forces captured around 5,795 square miles of land in the west, but returned it in the 1972 Simla agreement as a gesture of goodwill. Casualties and losses. India, 3,000-plus soldiers killed. One naval ship lost. 45 aircraft lost. Pakistan, 9,000-plus soldiers killed. 90,000-plus soldiers captured. 7 naval ships lost. 75 aircraft lost. Wow. Had no idea. Number 1, Kargil War. The Kargil War, also known as the Kargil Conflict, was an armed conflict between India and Pakistan that took place between May and July 1999 in the Kargil District of Kashmir and elsewhere along the line of control. The cause of the war was the infiltration of Pakistani soldiers disguised as Kashmiri militants into positions on the Indian side of the Yellow City. Results, decisive Indian victory. Casualties and losses. India, 520-plus soldiers killed. Pakistan, 1,000-plus soldiers killed. So it was really a back and forth. It was just... Obviously we've been in this for two years. We know it's happened a bunch of times in Pakistan. And obviously more than it lets on, because I think it was just going off of strict battles. Obviously not like the thing Uri was based on. Correct. Or other just incursions, I suppose. Because we know there's been a lot of those. But is that true? Has it only been really India and China? I mean Pakistan and China? Well, I guess since the... Since partition. Yeah. I guess that makes sense. Yeah, because for the most part, that's just the neighboring... That's who you usually fight with. Unless you're trying to take over the world. Like Hitler, Stalin, or somebody like that. Just keep taking over countries. But yeah, I mean, when partition happened, what they did was the Muslims were pushed out. So you had... I didn't know what's called East Pakistan. I don't know how they expected to keep a piece of land across India to get to. Yeah, they don't make any sense. Yeah, it wasn't so much a geopolitical move as much as it was obviously a cultural and religious one. Yeah. Because it was just put the Muslims over there. That's what the British decided when they left. Yeah, they left. Yeah. Divided by religion because that always works. That always helps. Yeah. Yeah. So... Oh, the British. Yeah, which is... I had no idea about the biggest... I would like to learn more because that's... something that's the biggest tank battle since World War II. Yeah, I don't know if we ever came across that because I don't recall ever hearing about the amount of lives lost and the amount of actual military equipment, that many tanks, that many airships. Yes, yeah. That's a lot. That is a lot. And they say all those numbers. I'm sitting here reading those numbers and I'm thinking, you know, for the military mind who does do those statistics and consider this to be the victory and that not, who got the ground and who didn't. I'm thinking about all of those human beings. Yeah.  Yeah. Whether right or wrong. Obviously, these people that died on either side, they're families. They have families. They have families. Yeah. And you can obviously critique governments all you want. Yeah. I've always thought that if there was life on other planets and they came by, the reason that we have sightings and don't have contact is because then when they get here, they're like, hey, what's up? Nope. No, that's okay. They'll kill themselves and give it a thousand years. We'll come back when they're all dead. Yeah. And humans. It is a thing to be proud of that you can say, my nation has never started a war. Oh, yeah. Because the United States cannot say that. We cannot. When it started the legal wars. That is correct. It's actually always. Now, our proudest moment is sincerely for sure, is the positions we had to stop both World War I and especially World War II. Those were, and we also waited to the very last moment. We sure did join. We should have, we should have. Oh, we should have gotten in a whole lot earlier than we did. But hey, what did we care? It wasn't affecting us. That's true. We are landlocked. Yeah. It's actually always funny to me whenever, because it happened in, in, in Delhi crimes. I don't know if you've seen some of the comments. People when we are critiquing how their police work is done. And they say, oh yeah, your police is so, like, I'm not saying that our police is perfect. In fact, I'm very critical of our police here, but doesn't mean I can't critique one and also still be critiquing the other. Right. Yeah, just because we point out something over here, doesn't mean we think we get everything right over here. We're just pointing out, oh, I've never seen that. That doesn't make sense. In fact, I think a lot of the United States, the stuff the United States does is wrong. But it did, it does throw me that you don't cuff somebody when you first catch them. Yeah. And it's there. Yeah. It's just interesting to me. Yeah. But just because we're saying this about India, I mean, we think the United States is perfect. In fact, it is not by any stretch of the imagination. You know, it's amazing about that. I don't know if you've seen this before, but you know, Americans will consistently say we're the land of the free, which we have freedoms that are astonishing. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the world. I love my country. But when you look at the freedom index and the real freedoms of the... I think we're like not even in the top 10. We're not even in the top 10. Yeah. I think we're 13th. Yeah. It's all how you brainwash them. They brainwash them early. Yeah. Brainwash them early. It's legit. That's what happens. It's why we stand up and say the pledge to the flag every morning. Did you know that? At school. At school? You have to stand up and say... You have to stand up, put your right hand over your heart and say I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all, every day of your life in school. Yep. Until you go to college and they don't do it anymore. Yep. Hey, freedom. Wear a cult. Yeah.
