Andy Mendoza here with Lynchburg head coach Steve Kadelka and coach congrats on the big win today. You guys got off to a quick start for nothing early in the first period. What do you credit that to? Our guys were ready to play you know I mean this is this we did back-to-back games last weekend so we came out flying last Sunday so you know our guys played the hearts out yesterday and unfortunately came up short against a great RIT team and I think they were you know this morning at our pregame meetings and things like that it looked like they were chomping and ready to go today. Well it definitely showed and face-offs in that first half dominated by your guys. What do you credit that to? You know our Bo Delaney and Craig Kester are two main face-off guys and have done a great job this year. I mean they've we've gotten better I mean we're we're at numbers that we were not at last year with the same two kids and then to their credit they've worked extremely hard and you know we knew that you know the RIT kid would be great yesterday and the Nazareth kid would be really good today and you know to their credit they gave us the ball a lot today early on which was really key to the game. And it seemed like your guys had an answer for every kind of response that Nazareth had. Never really let them get within two goals but every time they got within two goals your guys responded very quickly. What can you say about that? Well you know I think I said to the halftime I told them you know the one thing I did say to them was like great teams find a way to kind of answer the bell and I thought we did on a face-off kind of fast break goal right after they cut it to a couple and then and then scoring the goal right before halftime was pretty big. So you know those are plays that the championship level teams make and it was nice to finally made some of those because we've had several teams do those against this this year but it was really great to see our kids do that. You guys had a five and you guys gave up I should say five advantage five man up advantages and you did have ten turnovers so how do you kind of clean that up moving forward? Well you know we we were we gave up five man downs but didn't give in a big goals and so I think I'll harp on that. You know turnovers are part of our game we know that and you know I don't do we deserve to be in man down five times that's probably debatable but you know I thought our guys I mean for not having really any preparation and just really film work this morning I thought our guys handle that and just stuck to the core principles of our man down and coach Lombardo is a great job with those guys and it was it was awesome to see them prevail. And how do you guys take the momentum from this weekend playing well yesterday getting the win today and move it forward for the rest of the season. You know I mean I think you know first and foremost we have a great group of kids and they've been working their tails off all year you know and you know we've been we put them in a gauntlet I mean the teams that they've played have been some of the best teams in the country and and they know that and they've just kept on coming coming to the field every day and trying to get better and lift in and doing all the things we asked them to do and and then they're doing more on their own so they're they're they're eager for this I mean they you know they work really hard for this weekend and we really thought we could go to another weekend we came up a couple goals short against RIT but you know now we kind of move into ODAC play which is you know going to be a big for us you know we have a we have a really good opponent come into our place we get to play home next weekend and you know we'll hopefully have another great week of practice and get ready for that. Congrats on the win coach good luck the rest of the way. Thank you very much. For more coverage of the Mustang classic you can go to GoMustangSports.com


So we're moving on to the next lightning talk. My lovely colleague, Nia, will join us. Thank you. Thank you, Fabrice. Hello, everyone. So I'm Nia. I work for the marketing division at Next Cloud. And today I'm here to present about how to host a webinar using Next Cloud Talk. So I would like to go through the agenda, what I wish to cover in the next five minutes, hopefully. I would like to get started with a small introduction about what a webinar is, and then show you some of the features in Next Cloud that would be beneficial to host a webinar. And in third option, and in the third slide, I would like to show you step-by-step introduction about how with just few clicks and some settings we can host a webinar using Next Cloud Talk. So what is a webinar?  And for those who don't know, can pay attention now. So a webinar is a type of communication. It can be a seminar. It can be a workshop. It can be a presentation that is being transmitted to many people at the real time via video. So I can think of three scenarios here. So for an organization, it can be a chance in which a company shares its product and gives a presentation to a large audience using Next Cloud Talk. Or it can be like a company can do its internal weekly or a monthly calls with all its employees using Next Cloud Talk. Or as more and more organizations are getting global, so they can use Next Cloud Talk to host trainings or seminars for all their employees who can easily join in the session, no matter from which part of world they are. For educational sector, I can thank a teacher hosting online classes for their students using Next Cloud Talk. Or like how organizations have company meetings. An education sector can also have training and internal company calls using Next Cloud Talk. And if you look at some home users, like in last two years because of COVID, we all have attended one or the other event virtually. We eat a marriage of our friend or a birthday party or even a baby shower. So yes, that's how COVID changed in-person events to the virtual events. And we can use Next Cloud Talk for hosting some of our very personal and private events with our near and dear ones. So what are some of the features that we need in Next Cloud Talk that are present, that makes it the best hosting solution for the webinar? One, a webinar should not be that there's one person who is talking and kind of boring. So it should be having a feature with which you can easily with just one click be able to switch into one presenter to another. So that's what you can do with Next Cloud Talk. It should have an option to share files and documents with all the attendees. Imagine a scenario where you're presenting and doing a webinar and talking about your product. And at the same time, you are sharing the PDF of your product brochure with all the attendees. Isn't that something cool? Or if I'm a teacher, I would like all my students to take their homework, document attached after an online class. So these are some of the use cases we can have here. Third is ability to have a live chat for attendees. Why should webinar be boring? Why not have chat where all the guests and attendees can chat with each other or even add a comment or emojis to each other's comment and make it a little more fun? That's what you can do with Next Cloud Talk. Fourth is option to set permissions. Believe me, we've been hosting webinars using Next Cloud Talk and there are some occasions where I don't want a person from India joining the webinar where he's stuck in a traffic. You want to avoid all the noise which is going to be there. So it's important that you set permissions that who is allowed to have rights of switching on the audio or the video. So that you can do with Next Cloud Talk. And last is, like I said, make your webinars, your online classes, or your events more interactive with options such as poll, which my dear colleague Nimisha already showed and is one of the greatest feature we have in Next Cloud Hub 3. So these are like very obvious steps what you have to do in Next Cloud Talk for hosting a webinar. So first is the most obvious step, that is go to the talk. I don't know why even I have a slide about it, but yes, create a new group conversation in Next Cloud Talk, add a name to your conversation. Important, allow guests to join via link. Make sure you click that. Click create a conversation. Click on copy the link. This is for sharing it with everyone. So don't forget just to create the room and keep it only up to you. Make sure that it reaches the right audience, so share it. Step five, add participants. Like I mentioned, it should be very easy to switch between one presenter to another or one speaker to another. So you can easily add them here, make them a moderator, promote them, and yeah, you are done. You can add a very long description here. If you want, you can add some to-dos, not-to-do, add agenda, and what not. It's all up to you. I leave it up to you all and your creativity to add a description about what you want. And like I said, don't forget to change some settings. Like notify about calls in the conversation, and it's good to actually have a setting, a pop-up message where everyone who is going to sign in for the webinar, they receive that, they are not allowed to use the audio and video during this webinar session. Change the permissions, which is like very important. So I really have to remove everything that my audience cannot start a call or they cannot use microphone, camera, and share their screen. Most important steps. So no matter what you've chatted with all your moderator, speakers, or presenter, you can easily delete all the chat so that it's a fresh start right at the time when you get started with the webinar. Step 10, end call for all. This is most important because you never know how your webinar is going and someone just slept off.  And so make sure that you end the call for everyone because people might get busy in between with some other work and we want to avoid scenarios like that. And this is how you can do that. And like I said, next loud hub three, we made some improvements here. So make your session quite interactive fun by adding polls to it. And here is a screenshot about how you can share the document and some files with all your attendees. And I would like to rephrase the statement of my colleague Nimisha that we can have up to 1,000 participants who can attend and be part of one event in next loud talk. So that's again one of the improvements we've done in hub three. So thank you. And I hope you all use next loud talk for your next big event. Thanks a lot. Thanks, Nia. Really cool.


And now we said, if you have to have a product plan, your product should work in different circumstances. Not only on the outside world, somebody wants to use it in a garden, why not? So, this is the case, if you are putting so much investment, you put up a stand and it can be in the garden too. So, you look at now different product plans and take it forward and you know like you work on various forms and you know how the design will further refine for ease of manufacturing, what type of shape, what type of form will work the best for our work. And we went back to the CAD modeling and lot of discussions on what will this product look from the outside. It should look like it is an equipment, at the same time there should be a good perception and it should also sell by itself. So, somebody sees this jetting out, it should be curious, oh my what is this? Can I also see what it is and if it is a solar oven, why do not I buy it? So, your product has to do multiple functions when it is in the market. So, it should really look very good from outside and very encouraging. So, we were very clear with our brief, the form should be such that it should nothing should get stuck. So, we have no ridges on the top sea, we have very very clean surfaces and you know the surfaces further improve. See what happens if I have this and I will have volume, my containers will not fit in. So, now I have to lift this you know up and make a little bit more squareish, but the roundedness is still there. So, that is very important. So, we do a lot of these options to work out and see how we can improve it further. Now, the you know flanges and all are coming into place, you know the CAD model is further improving and then you know we did the door and we you know see how it will work on a stand, how it will work on a window. This is how it will look from outside the house and this is how it will look from inside, very convenient to use. You can actually go to the existing slot where people have left slots for air conditioners and then we have a specification sheet. So, very important aspect here is that the outer shell is made of polycarbonate. Polycarbonate is extremely tough. It does not break if somebody even stands on it is not going to buckle. So, our design is such a way that you know it does not get because anything getting out into the environment has to be really robust and strong and for us it has to be transparent. Then we have the inner shell also we use polycarbonate to reduce cost. We could have used other materials for inside, but we found out that polycarbonate is very good for very high temperatures and we are going as 110 degrees inside. So, we use the inside shell also with polycarbonate and injection molding. The outside sheet metal frame is powder coated. That is very strong. So, your plastic is getting fixed on the sheet metal. The door is inside the house. So, it is made of ABS. ABS is Acryl butadiene styrene and these are used in scooter parts.  Then we have the tray which is 3mm aluminum sheet which is matte finished in black. It could be either powder coated or it could be anodized. But aluminum has a problem of leaching into force. So, people have some preferences and now we are designing the food containers also effectively so that the transmittivity and conductivity is very very good. So, with this journey we have reached the stage of prototype still. We are still struggling in the value of death which is the second one. As soon as we come up with our 10 prototypes we are going to put this 10 pilot production. As you know even after pilot production we get so much of insights that we need to go back to our drawing board and make for the final production. So, we are going to set up an intellectual property agreement where we share the intellectual property with the company for a share of revenue. If you sell 1000 pieces you know he will give us a royalty figure which will let us you know take our design innovation studio forward. So, we want to just let you know how comprehension. Getting the user insights at every stage of the journey is very very critical and it plays a vital role and you keep coming back to your synthesis and analysis to see that you can come up with live projects which are very very successful in the market. So, that is the biggest challenge we are having. I think we will do that. So, thank you.


Can you put a wood screw through a balloon without popping it? Probably not. Preparation is key. We'll come back to this. Your high school students know how to communicate effectively, run an efficient meeting, know how to handle conflict, know how policies and laws are made. Most of the youth today don't and they are missing the skills required to not only be an involved community member, but a future leader. Flames, building tomorrow's leaders today, and youth lead vocal, leadership programs are developed as a response to the civic engagement need identified at the NDSU Extension Service Community Forums. The North Dakota Department of Public Instruction learned about the programs and wanted to know how Extension could partner with them to bring a civic engagement program into the high schools across the state, thus creating Building Tomorrow's Leaders. Building Tomorrow's Leaders is a comprehensive program geared to high school students with a focus on grades 9 and 10, but also works well with grades 11 and 12. The program aims to empower students to get involved in school and civic organizations to build confidence and strengthen the skills students need to lead others and to help students complete a project to meet a school or community need by applying what they have learned. There are eight modules and each module contains activities that will enhance students learning. Activities include a real colors, temperament assessment, parliamentary procedure practice, mock interviews, and more hands-on activities within each topic area to achieve a better understanding and increase skill level. The first module provides an overview of leadership principles and helps youth discover what leadership is and is not. They will also spend time reflecting on leaders in their life and how they can become a better leader. Youth will spend time learning about basic personality types and effective communication techniques to use with each type. They will learn how to recognize individual strengths and assets using real colors. They will also participate in active listening to help them learn how to better understand others. Effective meetings are no accident. Students will be engaged in a meaningful discussion about running meetings. They will also learn how parliamentary procedure helps organizations or groups of people make decisions in a way that is organized and fair. People form an opinion based on appearances in less than 30 seconds. Appearances can be physical, verbal, or in the form of a cover letter and resume. Although in a favorable first impression based on appearance can change later, it creates a hurdle to overcome. Students will learn how to give a great first impression. Students will learn about etiquette as it applies to professional situations, basic table manners, and tips to improve their socializing skills. They will create a personal elevator speech and develop an awareness of how online life can affect real life. People don't always agree. There are many reasons for that and the challenge and opportunity for a leader is to learn to manage conflict and channel the energy in a positive way. Students will learn about conflict, be able to recognize its causes and develop strategies to manage conflict and move forward with group work. As the next generation of leaders, students must know and understand how policies and laws are made. Students will explore school, community, state and local government opportunities and understand the legislative process. Students will learn the steps and planning for an effective group project, develop a strategy to implement a group project and actually complete the project that will benefit the school and or community. Working with an evaluator, a variety of evaluation tools will be completed to determine the skills gained through the building tomorrow's leaders program. Tools include a Qualtrics survey, instructor interviews, student follow-up surveys, and follow-up focus groups. All module objectives were cross-walked with the North Godot Department of Public Instruction, content and achievement standards. The areas they were cross-walked in include career and technical education, English language arts and literacy, library and technology, and social studies. Extension agents are asked to sign the school application so they are aware of the program being conducted in their county. To present real colors if they are trained or to help locate a nearby trainer and to check on the evaluation so they are completed. Additional involvement is an extension agent's choice. Schools are encouraged to form a committee to develop a plan on how to implement the program. They are responsible to complete all eight modules, but have the flexibility to pick and choose within each module on what activities they would like to do. There is funding available to implement the program from DPI. How can you build tomorrow's leaders? We weren't prepared at the beginning with the balloon. Preparation is key in being able to stick a scooter through a balloon without popping. As preparation is key to preparing students to become effective leaders. Help your local youth gain the skills necessary to become an involved community member and leader. Contact your schools today. This program would not have been possible without the efforts of hardworking people. We thank them for their commitment and involvement. If you have any questions, please contact Maxine. Her contact information is listed here.


Hey guys, welcome to our Friday evening Let's Talk Marriage, but it's not Let's Talk Marriage this week. We got something special in store, but I want to invite you guys here to some special guests that we have in our bookstore. So come join us. Come this way. I think you guys may recognize who they are. They just happened to be in here. Hi, Pastor. Hey, Marie. How are you? Good. Thank you. Happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas coming up to everybody in New Year's and see our special guest here. And we're in the bookstore. This is cool. Yeah, we have a book. Listen, guys, a question that I want to ask Pastor Marie this afternoon or this evening is, what are some of the ways as people, many people are going through a difficult time, especially during the season, whether it's spiritual, it can be a lot of loneliness that is going on, especially during these times. What encouragement would you bring to those or would you say to those who may be going through this difficult time? You know what I would say, John? I would say, clean to the Lord during this time and make him your number one thing to think on. But that's what I would say to just clean to the Lord. And be encouraged that what Jesus has done for us, he came to this world and he paid the price, died on the cross for our sins. And be grateful for a God that we honor. That's what I would say. He loved us so much. He paid that price. So I think sometimes we make a big deal about presence and all these other things, but it's really about worshiping our Father in heaven. And I think we need to give him all the worship that he deserves. Yeah, in a world that seems to be centered on Christmas being my birthday, you know, quite a number of people, you know, almost look at it as it's my birthday. I'm supposed to get certain kinds of things, right? Presence and this and that. So in a world that's filled with the sense of this is about me, I think what Marie just said is the right, is obviously the right way that we should look at it. It's not about us. It's about him. It's about what he's done. It's God with us. It's God with us. And so for those who don't know the Lord, I believe that Christmas is simply another excuse to party or it's just another day to be lonely. But for those who know the Lord, it's an opportunity to rejoice at his birth. There are basically a book and book ends that we as Christians enjoy. The book ends would be the birth of Christ and the death and resurrection of Christ, right?  I mean, what better present could we ever receive than the gift of life that he offers us? And so yeah, Marie and I have been celebrating Christmas together for a long time and we've celebrated it, you know, with babies and now grand babies with family and friends and we've tried to all through the years, John. We've tried to and I think we've succeeded to keep Jesus Christ in the center of it because without him, what's the purpose, right? So yeah, for those who are lonely during this time, I understand loneliness, but Jesus would more so because he said, now I'm alone, you know, and yet I'm not alone as he was speaking to his father. He said, because you were with me, you know, so being alone for me has been an opportunity to draw closer to him because in that time that I'm not being disrupted in terms of the continuation of event to event, when I'm able to sit for a moment, catch my breath and think about what the Lord has done in my life and what he has given to me, I've come to realize that it's not a present that I'm looking for, but presence that I'm looking for and the presence obviously would be his presence. And so celebrate the birth of Christ and what that means and meditate on those things and be careful not to make it your own birthday. Well, thank you guys so much for that. Just give a brief encouragement and guys, I want you guys to look forward to something new that we have with Let's Talk Marriage is going to come really soon and it will be at our same time on Facebook at 6 p.m. But look out for the announcements of when that's going to come out. And again, Pastor David and Marie, thank you guys so much for sharing this moment with you guys and anything you'd like to say.  No, I'm just kidding with you who wear those bunny slippers, show up. God bless you. We love you. Thanks guys. God bless you.


The legacy of what Qatar wants to do is becoming really evident in the world now when it comes to safety and security. I think the idea of a center of excellence coincides with the preparation for the 22 feet foot cup. So as we get closer to 2022, we will have probably a system in place for better training in the world, best practices portal for knowledge. And I think all the countries, all 190 countries will benefit from this.


Hey there friends, thanks for checking in. We're going to get right into it this time.  Check out this website. They're advertising short guns, 2021 short guns. I never really heard of it described that way. And then here we have brand new ruffles or rifles, not sure, but if we look at their outstanding services, they're very well documented, secured, and easy FFL handling of your firearms. Package tracking delivery periods, four to five working days with full tracking details. Somebody overlooked that. Express and normal delivery. I'm wondering what normal delivery is there? Is that UPS FedEx? What is it? Special veteran offer. Well, that's good. So this is the opening page. You can see it has quite a few things to look at here. There's a nice gentleman there with a rifle, all this. But if you go to new guns, and of course it has the chat box there, they don't want to talk on the phone. I actually called them. I'm going to play that in a bit. But have you ever seen a gun store that had so many different types of products under new guns? Here's some ammo, some more ammo. Here's a Swamp Fox Arrowhead rifle scope. How about that? More ammo. There's a rifle. Interesting things. Even Brownells, a Lumahide aerosol paint under new guns. Hmm. That's weird. If I go to shop, you'll see that this gun store is loaded with products. Look at that. 1,155 pages of products. I don't think the largest gun store, well, maybe so. But average size gun store does not have 1,155 pages. Let's go to the last page. See what this store has. Whoa. They have the MMP9 shield on the last page, as well as the Ruger American. There's a Stoker STR9. They copied and pasted all of these.   You can buy and pay with Bitcoin. How about that? All right. So you can use your credit card to invest small amounts. And then over here, look at those books and films. Do you know a gun store that sells books and films? Antique gun, binoculars, bolt action. See, that's its own category now. Books and British military conflict. What's conflict? This will be cool. Oh, I see all this stuff under conflict. Edged weapons. Drinkware. What do they have for drinkware? Guns.com. The competition. They are promoting the competition with Drinkware. Look at this. Flags, maps, signs, art, gear, German military hats. What hats do they have? I wouldn't buy a new hat. What do they have here? Guns.com. Wow. They are really promoting the competition. Whoever created this website has no idea what gunstop.com is because they would have never done that.  Over under. Is that a shotgun? Yeah, I think that would be a shotgun. Outerwear. Patches and stickers. Red dot scopes. Revolver. Rifle ammo. Rifle. This is so fake. I decided to call them. If you look at the home page, they have a phone number, but you think they picked up?  Why? Well, they want the voicemail. Here's my message. Your call has been forwarded to voicemail. Please leave a message after the tone. Hi, this is Jack Warren. I'm interested in a Bursa Commander P365. I'm wondering if you have that and if I could order it. I do have Bitcoin. I'd like to pay using Bitcoin. So great site here. Very interested in not just that, but some other models that are interesting to me like a Glock 18. You know, that would be cool to have that. So give me a call back, please, or I will try to do the online chat with you. Thank you. I went to the online chat and immediately it says, please introduce yourself. They want your email address. So I put Jay Warren at yahoo.com and an automated message came up. We're currently unavailable. We'll get back to you when one of our operators is able to respond. Please provide your email address so we can get in touch with you. I did it again. Can I buy Glock 18? And no response. How about that? It says, hi there with the waving hand. Another thing I want to show under outstanding features, under business performance, many variations of Loram ipsum, but the majority have suffered. Loram ipsum. The majority suffered. I went to Loram ipsum. It says, it is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. That's interesting. Under 24 seven support, same thing, many variations. So over here, the online store, our online store has been temporarily taken offline due to allow for future upgrades. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Well, everything's available. You can check out using Bitcoin, PayPal. You can do all that with this site. It says, we have the largest selection of new and used firearms. We also carry the largest selection of ammunition and accessories. At any given time, we can have over 700 guns in stock. Wow. I suppose so with 1155 pages under firearm training. All of our classes are NRA certified. So they have a gun range, they claim, but no address. You can't get an address. Have you ever seen a gun store without an address? They want you to go into the store. They want you to purchase more than you planned to get when you get there. But no, the quick support. You know, I went there and I couldn't get quick support. I couldn't get online support. I couldn't get anything. They just want you to load up your cart and pay with their fraudulent payment system so that you can't track it using Bitcoin and PayPal and everything else. It's so fake and I am just, it's actually embarrassing for me to put this on this channel, but I want to expose these frauds because I know for fact that many people were taken by these fake sites and it's really sad, but it is happening. You know, you look at stuff like this, express and normal delivery with full tracking devices. Then you go to the brand new ruffles, all kinds of stuff like this, grammatical errors, spelling errors. This is so fake. It's a joke and I'm going to keep exposing them so that hopefully people will stay away from this type of garbage. If you like videos like this, please subscribe and share. I always appreciate the thumbs up button. Thanks for watching and you guys be safe.


When you feel like you're the narcissist when you feel like you're the one who is at fault When you feel like you can't do anything right you've done some things that you're not proud of and It's causing you to question if you are the narcissist You assume that someone who is not a narcissist Would not do the things that you have done But this isn't always true.  You might have shouted at the narcissist You might have thrown things at them You might have said some mean things to them Maybe you have even physically attacked the narcissist. Of course, it's wrong to engage in those behaviors And we should avoid justifying it and Instead Try to respond better in the future if your actions were simply in reaction to the abuse You will recognize that your behavior was wrong and you will feel guilty for engaging in that kind of behavior You may even question if you are the narcissist The narcissist is not going to do that They hate acknowledging anything negative about themselves They enjoy shifting the blame on to other people It helps them to avoid any responsibility for their actions It makes them feel like they're not the problem If you try to engage in a healthy argument with a narcissist it will not work When you are in an argument with them They will shout and scream at you They will insult you They will try to make you feel shame as though you are a bad person This is abusive behavior and it doesn't matter how peaceful you might be It doesn't matter if you're not angry It doesn't matter if you're able to tolerate their problems without becoming annoyed or anxious You can maintain your composure and avoid having a emotional reaction But it will not result in a positive outcome When you are in a healthy relationship and you act in a healthy manner Naturally, this will bring about a healthy positive outcome But when you're in a relationship with a narcissist It doesn't matter how healthy your behavior is It doesn't matter how peaceful you might be or how tolerant you are of their problems Because the problem has nothing to do with you Nothing you change about yourself is going to affect the outcome of the situation The problem is within the narcissist So for there to be a healthier more positive outcome The narcissist would have to change their behavior And this is how you know that you're not the narcissist If you avoid having emotional reactions and you practice composure Yet nothing ever gets resolved That's how you know that it isn't you Because healthy positive behavior will always bring about a healthy positive outcome Unless you are dealing with a narcissist or toxic person When you try to be healthy or positive with a narcissist It just makes things worse It only makes them more mad Because it reminds them that you are not the problem It reminds them that they are the ones who are at fault They have to provoke you and get you to react to their abuse So that it looks like you're the one with the problem And that's when they will usually start to calm down and play the victim role But when you're calm and relaxed and you're trying to resolve the situation It just makes them more mad And you become more abusive More out of control Because it becomes obvious to them that they are the ones with the problem Even though they may not openly admit it to you They do recognize that they have a problem And that is why it makes them so mad When you do not react to their abuse It makes it very difficult for them to shift the blame onto you When you practice composure And you remain calm and relaxed despite how they're treating you It becomes extremely obvious to them that they are the problem But they can't just end the argument They can't just walk away Because then they would have to walk away With having to accept that they are the problem So instead They prolong the abuse They extend the duration of the argument Or they might give you the silent treatment They will constantly insult you And do whatever they possibly can to hurt you They will say or do whatever they think will hurt you the most Until you finally get mad and react to them It is perfectly normal and healthy for you to feel remorse after you have reacted to their abuse It is perfectly understandable And this is another key indicator That you're not the narcissist Because the narcissist would never feel any remorse for their actions They have to portray you as the problem So they can never accept that they have done something wrong But please do not feel like you're a bad person You're not You were just reacting to their abuse Anyone would have reacted in a similar way If they were constantly pushed and provoked And the narcissist constantly engages in this kind of behaviour And they keep pushing and provoking you until you finally react to them It increases your sensitivity to the abuse It makes you easily hurt, worried or offended Because you've been trained over a long period of time That when you get angry The narcissist becomes calm It has trained your subconscious to be more sensitive to the abuse So that the threat will stop faster The narcissist calms down Because it relieves their suffering It validates their false image They can't do anything wrong You are the one who has the problem When you finally react and start acting the way that they do They really start to believe that you are the one who has the problem Regardless of everything that they have said or done Before you finally reacted to them This is when they will start to call you mentally unstable They will call you a narcissist or psychopath And they will claim that you need help Deep down you know that this isn't who you are You know that you wouldn't normally react in this way But now it seems to be happening more often Now you seem to be coming more and more like the narcissist It's almost like they are training you to become the narcissist Every time you react It creates more and more evidence that you are the one with the problem And that is why you are now questioning if you are the narcissist You might even be watching my videos And identifying with some of the dysfunctional behaviors That I have described about the narcissist But that doesn't mean that's who you are If you were the narcissist You wouldn't even entertain that idea The behaviors that you have engaged in Are in reaction to how the narcissist has treated you It's reactive abuse You've done some things you're not proud of You feel like you're the problem You feel like you're the narcissist But there is one significant difference Between a narcissist and someone who engages in reactive abuse The difference Is that someone who has engaged in reactive abuse Will admit what they have done They will take responsibility for their actions They will feel embarrassed for how they have acted Because they know that's not really them That's not how they would normally act They won't even say why they did what they did Because it doesn't matter why There is no justification for abuse And we know that Regardless of what someone has done to us We will still feel bad for our behavior We will wish that we could have responded differently Instead of blaming the narcissist We will take responsibility for our actions But an abusive narcissist will never do any of that They will put full responsibility For all of their problems onto you They will shift the blame onto you And in the rare case that they do give a fake apology They will always have a reason or excuse For why they did what they did They always have to minimise what they've done They cannot accept being at fault They always have to have someone else to blame But if you're not the narcissist And you're just someone who has engaged in reactive abuse You're not going to hold someone else responsible for your actions You're going to accept that you made the choice to act in that way This is how you know that you're not the narcissist If you feel bad about your actions If you can openly talk about it If you don't feel the need to shift the blame onto someone else If you're not only outlining the bad things about the other person This is what separates us from narcissists Thank you for watching I hope this video resonated with you Please like, comment, share and subscribe Click the bell icon to

My name's Tiffany Bennett. I'm a livestock consultant with Pural Solutions SA at the extension arm for PERSA. We're here today at the Struan Research Farm with John Cooper, the farm manager at Struan Farm here, and Michael Wilkes from Thomas Elder Consulting. We'll be looking at remote way options for cattle and looking at the Optiway system and the opportunities and benefits that that provides. Elders and the Thomas Elder Institute have partnered with PERSA to undertake a strategic partnership to turn the Struan and Kibibolite research farms into best practice demonstration farms. And a big part of that is the strategic use of AgTech to improve the productivity and efficiency of our farming businesses. Part of that is technology such as this, which is the Optiway remote cattle weighing system, which enables us to weigh cattle in the paddock real time without having to yard them and dramatically reducing our labour component. Yes, so we had the Optiway delivered here in late January, so we've had it for four months now. As you can see it being well used, it's rubbed and full of mud. We've used it firstly to monitor our heifer live weights, looking to get our heifers up to a mating weight in June and also for our steer weights going into our cell grazing program. We'd like to keep our steers going forward at this time of the year before we get into winter. So it's been a very effective tool in both those things. It's a really good way daily to just get a percentage of the mob coming over the machine and you can just look each day or each week and say, yes, my feeding program is working, they're gaining weight or no, it's not working, they're losing weight, whatever you want to do. But it's just a really good way of monitoring the performance of your cattle. It's like any other weighing system, it doesn't take very long to get a weight. You'll see that the cattle, they do spend their time in there licking the molasses. So that's not an issue, but it does weigh them quite quickly. We finish a lot of freezing bulls into the export market. The first job we had with the OptiWay was in our cell grazing systems monitoring the weight of our bulls looking to see which mobs were getting up to soil weight and tracking that. So it did a good job of that and as you can see, bulls are always pretty rough on equipment and the OptiWay stood up to that really well. So there's multiple ways that we can weigh livestock remotely in the paddock. Typically that's been a walkover weighing system where animals walk over a full load platform and their entire weight is measured, typically as they move to a water source. Those systems work well but do require more infrastructure in terms of fencing. OptiWay here measures the front feed for the animal and then based on the weight of that and the class and age of the animal, the algorithms are then used to predict the whole live weight of the animal and we're getting very good correlations between the OptiWay weight and actual live weights measured in the yards. The main benefit of remote weighing livestock is A, labour saving, in that you're not yarding animals frequently, keeping them off feed, putting them through stressful handling procedures. The other thing is to be able to actually monitor their performance real time and make sure A that they're tracking to their weight going goals and that your feeding regimes are appropriate and B also monitoring their trajectory to a market endpoint particularly for animals destined for a slaughter endpoint. We can make sure that they're tracking right performing how we like and if they're not we can make a management intervention to ensure that they're going to pick up their performance. As you can see it's fairly easy to move, it's very lightweight, portable, towable, even a quad bike can tow it around and basically how it works when it's out in the paddock here is we have a weigh scale underneath with load bars, a small trough inside which we place an attractant typically a mineral lick or salt or molasses, an EID panel reader that reads the animal's ear tag that then feeds into a scale head behind the panel, basically the beast walks on, puts its front feed on the scale, licks at the attractant, the tag is red, the weight of the animal, the front half of the animal is taken and collects the data, sends it wirelessly through 4G signal through to a server where the data is collated and then available for the producer through an interface online where they can see cattle weights and monitor the performance of their herd. So here we have the online interface, the data from the Optiway unit feeds back to here's one of the displays that we can look at, the average weight by day whereby the blue bars are the number of animals that have visited the Optiway on any given day and the green line is our average weight for those animals that have visited the machine. So what we're looking at is what data I receive from the Optiway cattle weighing machine down in the paddock. So as you'll see every morning I get a summary sent to my office computer which shows us the number of animals that have been in the machine, the number of records recorded, the average weight and the weight range of those animals recorded that day. This is the email message I receive every morning, if you're an early riser it comes in at about one o'clock in the morning but it just gives you a summary of what's happened the previous day. So you can see yesterday being the 19th, we're in the Angus Steer mob, seven animals had been in the Optiway crate that day and we've got 22 records from those seven animals. As a percentage of the mob is only 6%, their average weight 402, weight range 353 to 464. So a very thumbnail sketch, at least you know the machine is working what's happening and then you can go through and look at some of the summaries it produces for you. This particular one lists the animal identification down the left-hand side and by each week the average weight of that animal so you can follow through, this was a particularly good animal that's been in there every week and you can follow through and just see what is its live weight doing, is it holding, is it gaining or is it losing. So as a percentage of the mob you can then tailor things such as I had mentioned before, heifer mating weights, are we on track to get the heifers to a mating weight on the 1st of June and this sort of data gives you really good heads up on what's happening out in the paddock. You can of course download that into an Excel spreadsheet for your data recording if you want to keep it that way. I always just leave it in this Optiway format. I find that's fine for me and is readily available. As I said we've had it since January. All the records are easily stored and brought up in this particular fashion but you can download it and then play with it as you would like. So one of the main applications of this is to be able to have a snapshot of your herd weight and their growth rate performance over time without having to yard them. Basically 20 to 30% snapshot I guess of weights of the animals will enable you to see how the herd is tracking overall. Yeah with the Optiway there's no calibration or anything you need to do. It's got a full electronic set of weight cells on there ready to go so there's no issues about having to calibrate your scales. That's preset and has been right on. We've compared the weights we're getting on the Optiway with weighing the actual cattle in the yards itself and there's no issue there, very close. The Optiway is a standalone unit. It doesn't need anything else, it's completely self-contained. Powered by this solar panel and you've got a long life battery stored down the bottom here out of the way and protected in a box from the animals. So the only consideration you have to have is to have the solar panel facing north just to maximise its output. We've used the Optiway in our farm enterprises here at Struan so we haven't had to worry too much about the biosecurity from mob to mob but as you can see it's a waterproof machine, very easy to wash down and hose off with disinfectant if you're going between farms or you have a biosecurity issue you want to address. So the Optiway is about $15,000 to buy so it's a reasonable investment to come on farm with. One of the things we are keen is to just do an evaluation of are we getting value for money with it. So over the next couple of months we'll be able to do a cost benefit to our operation about has that expense been worth it and as it's going on at the moment I'm finding it a very useful tool. So depending on how many cattle you've got and what sort of inputs you're putting into your herd you'll be able to do that cost benefit and we'll be able to provide our figures as well to help you make those decisions. As part of the best practice demonstration farm that Elders and Purser have gone into partnership on here at Struan we'll be implementing a range of ag tech and management practices around the farm and the performance of those and the effect that they have on the farm business will be benchmarked and a cost benefit will be determined for them and we'll be able to demonstrate that to producers within the region and throughout the country. What the benefits of using innovation and technology in livestock production system is how it can improve the profitability of their businesses and make life easier and that's a really key focus of the best practice demonstration farm. As you can see there are plenty of opportunities that the Optiway will provide beef producers to help remotely manage their cattle beller. Thank you to Michael Wilkes and John Cooper for providing the information today.

And then to express my respects to the ancestral leaders of the land and also to the leaders of the University, the Australian National University. And thank you very much indeed for being here. I bring warm greetings from the people of Tuvalu. They are still there. They are still there in Tuvalu. And it is a great honor, sir, director of Climate Change Institute in the Australian National University, for your welcome and a privilege for me to be speaking here at the ANU. I particularly want to thank the Climate Change Institute, director, of course, the Ferner School. And I understand also the Pacific Institute of the ANU for giving me this opportunity to speak here. Tuvalu, as you may already know, has a longstanding relationship with the ANU, because we have a number of Tuvaluan students and Pacific students studying at the ANU. And some I can also even see in the audience. I just came out of a talanoa or a dialogue with our fellow Pacific students, and including Tuvaluan students, where I got all decorated with flowers and also with a garland. So that's why you see me wearing the lace and the flowers. But I have with me a delegation comprising the CEO of Foreign Affairs, Fakavaya Taomia, my personal assistant in the Office of the Prime Minister, and her excellency, the newly accredited resident high commissioner of Australia, Tutuvalu, Ms. Murray, who you can see there. But we have had a particular relationship, as I was saying, with the Ferner School, my director of climate change negotiations, Ambassador Jan Frey, Dr. Jan Frey, as you may know, is a graduate of Ferner School. And he's also our chief negotiator or advisor to our negotiators on the process of climate change. As you may know, he's not here because he's really engaged in negotiations in Poland right now. So you must be very happy he's a graduate of this very important prestigious university. I understand also he's, together with other colleagues, graduates from here, are teaching in schools here in the ANU. Others who have graduated from the ANU on diplomacy, on public policy, have returned to Tutuvalu and have made significant contribution to helping the small island administration in developing its policy, but also on development issues as well as participating or contributing in the foreign service of Tutuvalu. So we believe to continue these special relationships and for small island countries with little capacity in areas of policy and development, it is critical and important, in my view, that these special relationships continue. So maybe later on I will explore some options how we can move this forward. But on this issue of climate change, it is very clear that it is the serious single greatest threat to humanity that we face today. We have acknowledged amongst the leaders of the Pacific in the boy declaration on security in the region as we agreed in the last forum or meeting of the leaders in Nauru last year. And again, the IPCC special report on 1.5 degree Celsius above our pre-industrial levels highlights the profound global risks that we are facing. The report concludes that the effects of human-induced climate change are worse than previously projected, and that the risks to Pacific small island development states are very, very serious, including my own Tutuvalu. We face particular threats to our coastal and marine environment, including sea level rise, extreme weather events, coral bleaching, ocean acidification, and changes in fish stocks. It is therefore a threat to our scenic fisheries, water resources, health, agriculture tourism, and many other fronts. It is very evident that climate change represents a single greatest threat to the livelihoods of the people living on low-lying, vulnerable island countries. Their security, long-term sustainability, and well-being. I have seen recent reports in various newspapers suggesting that Tutuvalu is not sinking and that climate change is a hoax. It's a little bit unfortunate. I have seen reports of politicians making also similar statements. And they refer, in particular, to paper by authors Richard Kench and Arthur Webb, which suggested Tutuvalu has increased in size since the Second World War. My own scientists, and through empirical observations on the islands, including experts from ANU, have critiqued this paper and believed that the findings are at best misleading. We all know that the coral-arrow atolls grow and shrink due to various factors. And to suggest a trend of growth is, I believe, simply poor science. Even a layman like myself knows that. And through observations that this is a hoax. You need to visit our islands in Tutuvalu. And therefore, we have tidal records going back many decades. And it is clear from these records that the sea is rising around Tutuvalu. We are slowly being inundated by sea water. And saying that the biggest immediate threat to Tutuvalu is overwashing from storm surges. For example, in 2015, Cyclone Pam, which devastated large parts of Wanwatu, as you may have heard or learned from the media, also had severe effect on Tutuvalu. Our northern islands were confronted with waves ranging from three to seven meters high. As high as point of our entire country is only four meters above sea level, you can start to imagine the effects of such a storm and those surges on the livelihoods of the people. Waves washed across the entire islands. And thankfully, no lives were lost. But the damage to crops, food crops, and to livelihoods, to houses, livestock and infrastructure were enormous. Not only Wanwatu impacted, and we feel for our brothers and sisters in Wanwatu for the damages that were inflicted upon them by tropical Cyclone Pam. But Tutuvalu and many other southern islands of Kiribati were also badly affected. So therefore, the food and water security of those islands destroyed in one single event. It was an enormous hit to our GDP as we had to ship in water, food, and other supplies. We are still making payments to help those affected, the landowners, the household owners, the parents to recover from these damages. We thank the response of the global community and including Australia, of course, for helping us to cope and restore our lives. So therefore, because of these events, I... It led me to suggest a strategy, the Kakengatu, that is based on regarding the vulnerability to impacts of climate change as enemy number one of Tuvalu. And the critical importance of building resilience, so that the people will be able to cope better in the future. And that resilience will include education, capacity building, governance, and that likely policy orientation to strengthen the ability of the Tuvaluan people to respond to those things in the future. So that we didn't have to rely on the goodwill of the international community, but the people will be able to fend for themselves. I also established what we now call the Tuvalu Survival Trust Fund, out of our own resources dedicated an annual part of... a portion of our annual budget into this fund, so that it can be possibly a future mechanism for insurance cover in the future, if we can work with partnerships around the Pacific and other partners as well. Therefore, it is a view to also propose that because of these events, it is relevant that we develop... we establish what I refer to as the Pacific Island Climate Change Insurance Facility to give an injection of financial support for these vulnerable island countries. The idea is being well developed and received in the Pacific Island Leaders Forum process. It's being looked at by experts from all over the world, including the SPREP, the Forum Secretary, and I hope that the ANU could look at and offer some suggestions how we can move this from a concept into an establishment that can be set with the help of the GCF as well to help the countries in the Pacific. So I say that particularly to the climate change skeptics and politicians, of course, we have seen a lot of media about these, the shock jocks and people like who deny climate change that probably is good if you visit tomorrow. Come and visit tomorrow and see for yourself what climate change and sea level rise really mean to the livelihood of people who live on places hardly. For me, there's above sea level. I know there have been a lot of talk, a lot of skepticism, and even suggestions that probably it's cheaper to relocate and take these people away from their islands and resettle them in other parts of the world. I say this is not on. It is not on the agenda of the people of Tuvalu. They want to continue to stay and they want to continue to save their future and that's why we always say save Tuvalu in order to save the world. So there's the invitation there if you want to really prove that the skeptics are wrong in their forecast. Of course, I know they are paid by the fossil fuel industry to write stories to deny the science and the impacts of low-lying islands like Tuvalu. You come to Tuvalu and see for yourself. The occasion of having the forum next year in Tuvalu I think it's a good opportunity for skeptics to come and see for yourselves. Climate change is ever present in our minds and this is why after a visit this time to Australia I'm heading off to Poland so that we can talk more how we can progress the work on addressing climate change particularly the work on implementing the Paris Agreement. We have made significant achievements in agreeing to work together under the Paris Agreement but we need to deliver on this agreement. We cannot just keep the agreement away as another record of commitments but we need a rule book for this. We need an operational guidelines how we parties and all members of the global community governments, civil societies, private sectors, businesses can work together to deliver on the expectations of the Paris Agreement. And we need to find ways to achieve the targets of 1.5 degrees Celsius before pre-industrial period. And this is serious. When we look at the IPCC special report on 1.5 degrees it is telling us if no actions are done urgently to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at a global level the situation, the catastrophe impacts on small islands like Tuvalik will be dire. Will be dire, will be catastrophic. These islands will be submerged within 30 years. Just imagine. Imagine that you were in my shoes you were wearing my shoes and to think about the security and survival of your people being predicted. This is a generation, a mere generation away. A mere generation away. So I think it is onerous on all humanity nations of the world, stakeholders, parties to come together and take this report seriously because it would be, I think, unfortunate if we didn't meet or take actions to address these warnings. I believe that the comprehensive approach to the Paris Agreement rulebook is necessary and that it should be a complete package on the implementation, full elements of the Paris Agreement including on the loss and damage. Was put there deliberately to address the issue when your islands or country is completely eroded you have nothing to adapt to. You have no way to adapt to these impacts such as these small islands, countries of Tuvalik but all other economies as well. And therefore it is critical that we work out the rule books how we can implement this practically in a meaningful way. We, of course, are appreciative that there is good will still on many parties, on the part of many parties to come together in Poland so that we work out how we can move forward on this. And of course the other expectation out of COP24 in Poland is for the Talanoa process which is an initiative that was proposed under Prime Minister Frank Bajnemarov during his presidency to talk openly about meeting the targets, the nationally determined contributions to global emission reductions. And unless we have a conclusive concrete decision in Poland COP24 on moving forward on this it would be I think not helpful at all in order to avoid the catastrophic effects as I was referring to earlier on. So these are the expectations that we I strongly believe we need to work on. So there is another issue as well that I want to share and this is about market mechanisms that are being proposed. While we work on the rule book and the conclusion of the Talanoa process we need to be weary that the mechanisms for market, for carbon trading will not be used as an excuse to shift and transfer responsibility from the domestic level to other processes. If we were to do that, if it could be used as a mechanism it should be followed accompanied by an international monitoring mechanism that can keep check on the integrity and credibility and contribution as well to the overall greenhouse gas emissions reductions. So therefore in this respect I have raised the issues together with our colleagues and the leaders of the Australian government and during the day we had a very constructive discussion on these issues and also shared with Prime Minister Scott Morrison my expectations for us to continue to work in close partnership. Of course sharing with the Prime Minister and other leaders that whilst we recognize the policies of the Australian government on market mechanisms we also need to keep in track the issues of integrity and that sort of things as well. So I also want to impress on the presidencies of the COP, VG and Poland too ensure that the outcome of the Talonowa Dialogue as I was saying would come to some sort of decisions clearly demarcated in Poland so that we keep track of what people are doing in meeting with the emission reduction targets. We are aware that we are falling far short of meeting the targets that are necessary to reach the overall global targets of 1.5 degrees Celsius. So therefore I have impressed on our friends in the Australian government and likewise to all other nations to really think seriously about this and I'm glad there is receptiveness on the part of the Australian government that we continue the dialogue together with the Australian leaders and the Pacific Island leaders find ways how we can converge a common strength, common position to address this. It is also important that I think OECD countries should quickly look at their targets as well as their economy so that we can reach their respective countries in achieving the targets of the Paris Agreement. So during this visit to Australia and I want to acknowledge again my appreciation to the government of Australia for their ongoing support to small islands like Tuvalu and particularly for their invitation to come and dialogue more on the stepper policy for the Pacific Island nations including Tuvalu I have expressed my views that if there were no efforts to strategically and significantly improve the policy on energy to move away from coal mining and maybe facing out the coal mining policy but moving towards renewable energy to me it's almost a policy that's condemning a lot of lives of the people of the Pacific including Tuvalu because I strongly believe we need to act together as urgently as possible otherwise the people will suffer significantly as what the IPCC report is projecting so it never ceases as I was expressing this afternoon Prime Minister Morrison Australia is a land endowed with solar and a lot of talents as well and expertise including those in the ANU who are very very progressive and advanced in looking at options of renewable energy and to move away from the coal dependent economy and I certainly hope my message got there because when I mentioned this Prime Minister was quite happy to receive these comments as well and I have suggested maybe so way forward the Prime Minister and leaders of the Australian government could agree to establishing some sort of annual dialogue between the leaders of the Pacific and Australia so that we can come together and talk about common grounds to advance our work on climate change we in the forum last year in Nauru we spoke and committed to what we now hold the Boyer Declaration on Human Security and I think the Boyer Declaration on Human Security not only focusing on what was espoused under the Pikitawa Declaration on Security but moving beyond the traditional meaning of security to include human security in the Pacific so I think this is a very good framework and platform for us in the Pacific to seriously look at ways we can develop our capacity to work together to address security issues including climate change in the Pacific I have also suggested the support of the Australian government to us in our initiatives through the United Nations on Pacific insurance and the climate change insurance facility and also a resolution to take care of the rights of people to be displaced by impacts of climate change I certainly hope the Australian government can stand and help with us in those initiatives this being said ladies and gentlemen it is also critical in our own country that we develop our sustainable financial capacity to help our people adapt to the impacts of climate change including education, health and also food security harvesting fisheries resources in our vast oceans therefore is critical and that's why we are very grateful for the components of the step-up initiative by the Australian government under Prime Minister Scott Morrison and we're very happy tomorrow I'm going to Perth to see a new naval boat that is to be donated by the Australian government under the step-up initiative to help to valve patrol its maritime and fisheries resources and I think this is very critical and timely as we try to maximize the value of tuna and fisheries resources in the Tuvalu area so excellencies these gestures of goodwill are quite important as we move forward but as I was saying we need to build the capacity of the local people in Tuvalu and other small island countries and for that we greatly appreciate the step-up initiative building on the infrastructure the resources, works, games but also the capacity of our local people so finally excellencies as I was saying earlier on I want to throw and some suggestions for further collaboration between the ANU and Tuvalu for example first we should continue to build the capacity of our people so if you are looking for scholarships offering scholarships and training Tuvalu is more than happy to provide students or potential students to come and study in ANU I think we also need to have set ourselves very serious renewable energy targets and we need the help of ANU to help up more forward with reaching our targets on renewable energy and renewable energy is really to deal with the issue of high costs of depending on fossil fuels I think I've already referred to insurance facilities for Tuvalu and I certainly believe that the Australian government and others will help us move and support us push these initiatives not only in the region but also in the UN I know my ambassador for climate change has held preliminary discussions with the Climate Change Institute and Crawford School on this and I hope we can further develop Let me close by saying thank you very much for your time to listen to me and as you know Tuvalu is one of the smallest island countries in the Pacific and the world and therefore we look at the Pacific as needing to work together particularly to address the issue of climate change so in closing thank you again for your partnership and your support and I think given the significance of the impacts and the threats on the survival of island countries like Tuvalu we cannot be ignored if we save Tuvalu we can save the world thank you very much for listening Tuvalu Modiatua, thank you In fact it was so fantastic that you've actually covered all of the questions that I was going to do I've asked you including the one about how you could involve in practical ways but perhaps just before I open to the audience just one thing to expand upon you mentioned the importance of a new dimension of security that's human security and in particular I imagine your idea of climate change refugees is important in terms of your framing of this could you just expand a little bit about what you'd like to see happening in that domain well we still believe that those to be displaced by effects of climate change do not fall into the conventional definition of refugees and there will be significant difficulties in accepting this category of people because also about the protection of their rights should they be forced to be relocated within countries but especially outside countries so we believe there is a security dimension to that that requires proper consideration at the UN level, global level for an appropriate framework to deal with their rights so that when they are displaced and be relocated their rights to survival and to basic services of water and health are properly protected that they are not overshadowed by the ongoing debate on refugees under the 1951 Convention of Refugees so that's how we look at it it is really a security issue for those who are very very vulnerable to the effects of climate change including sea level rise so we are proposing that the UN resolution we will be taping it in the UN next month, this month in December hopefully it will be picked up in the negotiations early part of next year possibly going to the Human Rights Council and the appropriate agencies of the UN but that's what we are looking at thank you so just opening the thought of questions questions for the comments thank you so much sir I have a question I work with the UN Migration Agency here and you mentioned some sort of a framework or action on supporting disaster induced displacement and I think South America this week recently passed a non-binding document and they look at regular legal ways and exceptional legal ways to find a way to work together to support international relocation and peace related disasters can you speak a little bit more about what are some things that could be done in the Pacific and where Tuvali might be interested in leading absolutely no, as I was mentioning these there are natural disasters that are happening we have to accept that in the definitions of the Sendai framework convention on natural disasters here we are dealing with the effects of climate change and people have been saying do you have any plan B to respond to climate change? I said no, there is only one plan and that is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions so that we reach our targets in the Paris Agreement when things happen in the doorstep that devastate, there's another level there's disasters itself but we are dealing with a human induced climate change that we have to really contain the definition and the projection and understanding of it so that we don't unnecessarily move to other regime but we know the effects are basically the same but in order to be comprehensive and move forward in addressing this particularly on climate change we really need to project this in the human induced disaster that we are dealing with and that's what we are trying to do in Tuvali we are getting funding from the greenhouse the global climate finance fund for coastal protection but I think it is the right of those most vulnerable to seek for this protection from the global community back to the principle of polluting the pace so we are very fortunate to get the funding from the Green Climate Fund and we are starting to protect our islands for sure also doing reclamation possibly raising the islands so that we can protect our people and continue to live on the islands so that we didn't have to be forced to move away thank you thank you for your remark thanks for the your remarks I'm Jacqui Westerman I'm a researcher at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute here in Canberra we work among other things on women peace and security and look at the connection between WPS and climate change and seeing women are differently affected by climate change and subsequently the disaster is happening could you give some examples how Tuvalu includes women in creating more resistance to the effects of climate change yes indeed we fully recognise the contribution of women they are mothers in fact they are leaders in their own communities we have nine outer islands communities away from the capital island of Nafuti and most of the communities' activities to do with sustainable development on health and education are led by women women committees and that sort of thing so we fully recognise the contribution by women in all these efforts at the level, national level we also most of the jobs, top jobs are held by women anyway and you can see the two women here are champions in their own rights to champion the contribution of the women in the church groups led by the women so yes indeed we recognise that thank you Prime Minister I have a question I'm a fairness student the question is how do you feel accepting the Australian aid that is partially funded funded by the fossil fuel industry we we have been working with the Australian government many many years and I think they have contributed a lot to human development to sustainable development in Tuvalu we appreciate that now we have discussed as I was saying in my statement that raising these issues directly with the Australian government I have raised that with them that we cannot be regional partners under this step-up initiative genuine and durable partners unless the government takes a more progressive response to issues of climate change and I'm glad that we got the response from the Australian Prime Minister this afternoon that they are happy to work with Pacific leaders including Tuvalu on a dialogue to work out ways that we can close the gaps in so to speak in this sort of response to climate change and I'm hopeful that we can do that I know they have a policy on coal mining but also on energy efficiency but certainly it's a very very central policy of debate ongoing in Australia we respect that but I was saying we cannot be genuine partners regional partners bilateral partners unless we we see some progress in the policy of the Australian government and these are things that we need to continue working and dialogue not shying away but talking openly with the leaders of the Pacific and Australia as well so I think I also impress on the the wealth of the technology and knowledge that we know present in Australia on solar technology on renewable energy that is you know that is there we know from the Pacific point of view in Tuvalu it's available but we perhaps only need political leadership to move towards that harnessing that wealth of capacity in Australia so we will continue to dialogue with them but I'm sure when things happen I'm sure Australia there will be a lot of lands here for people of Tuvalu to come and settle here and then I'm here and already talks about visa arrangements to facilitate that so thank you for your question Minister thank you very much for a very illuminating address you introduced our new High Commissioner Tuvalu and I wondered with you whether you'd like to elaborate on that initiative absolutely we are very very excited and happy that after many years the Australian government under Prime Minister Morrison has part of this step up initiative the diplomatic connectivity and now we have just last week welcome the accreditation of the papers of Ambassador Murray who is sitting right there so as she's part of her mission is to build up on this step up initiative but also I promise her that every single Tuvaluan will support the Wallabies rugby not the old blacks but the rugby the Wallabies so thank you very much oh by the way Foreign Minister Malais will be visiting Tuvalu February and we'll be opening officiating the new High Commission and also the foundation of the new residence and High Commission of Australian High Commission in Tuvalu flying the flag of Australia there great stuff thank you very much thank you very much Prime Minister it was a great opportunity to hear from your own words what's happening in Tuvalu we live on an island it's a lot bigger the Australia I think is the largest island in the world and I think it's really quite difficult I think for a lot of Australians to understand or have any indication of the impacts of climate change on a small island developing state one of the things that I was quite taken by recently was a couple of young people who were involved in some international event and they were telling the story from their own perspective from their own the impact of wherever they come from in one of the Pacific islands I know everyone would love to come to Tuvalu but not everyone may have the opportunities so perhaps as it's going to be a problem and a very important issue for the young people of the world is it possible for some sort of video or some virtual sort of indication that would be easily acceptable or easily accessible rather and possibly even a fundraising thing from climate change that could come out of the Tuvalu and possibly through the Poland negotiations because I think that's something that will bring the Tuvalu experience right to people's living rooms and particularly to young people who are going to face these challenges in their future as part of a member of the global community could you possibly get back would you have a comment on that? Absolutely ma'am I think you raised a very very important point the audio visual I mean pictures speak millions are more worse than words so you are right and I think we have materials that can be shown and shared my officials are taking note of this we have video clips of what happened in 2015 when we were hit by Cyclone Pam so this would be very very extremely useful to be shared with the audience with a wider Australian audience in Australia so you can get really the feeling of how vulnerable and destructive these events are on small islands like Tuvalu but you are most welcome to come to Tuvalu don't come at one time you will sink the islands but come we are having the forum in a second week of August next year we are hosting all the Pacific Island leaders they will come there also I want to encourage as much participation from the international community especially our friends from Australia and New Zealand but also inviting the secretary general of the United Nations and also the executive secretary of the climate change convention this will be a good feed-in to what they are proposing as a secretary general submit on climate change in September so if you have time you are most welcome just let us know so we can make preparations for your visit for the students and professors you are most welcome especially from the A&U we won't say that to other universities no but seriously it's there the islands are there I'm sure I mean it will be modern enough to share our islands with you guys thank you very much but we will share the video clips with you through the Australian High Commission thank you so Prime Minister and you are true champion of the Pacific region in the world so I'm my name is Per Alberry and I'm proud to say that I'm the first ambassador of Sweden to Tuvalu non-resident unfortunately always an honour we haven't met for some time Mr Prime Minister could you mention the Green Climate Fund and one of the discussions that we have had in the past is access to the Green Climate Fund could you please elaborate a bit on that what's the status now in terms of access or difficulties thank you very much Ambassador, good to see you again and it's really good to see friends around but absolutely for the Green Climate Fund we were struggling for some time we we prepared our proposal I put together using the Tuvalu experts themselves come together to write proposal on adaptation on coastal protection as adaptation to impacts of climate change so we put this together into a proposal I had the advantage of having worked in the adaptation fund of the Kyoto Protocol when we started off the operational mechanisms so we got use those knowledge and things like that wrote a proposal and then worked with our partners, Australian, New Zealand to advocate and I was grateful for a former chairman of the board of the Green Climate Fund McDonald, he's Australian and he's now ambassador in New Zealand I think I mean these personal connectivity connections are important and then we went to the board luckily we had the ambassador of Samoa, he's the rep of the small islands there and very supportive but you need to advocate for partners like Japan, Australia Switzerland and all the EU and all that so we got the approval and we got the money dispersed 52 million Australian dollars to build the seawalls now it's a different story when we actually start to implement because the implementing entities start to put on their own bureaucracies and okay we want to cut off 10% 13% as administrative charges this is crazy anyway but we worked through this and we are actually implementing building seawalls so the money is there is dispersed then we come to another hurdle because I'm told you can only build seawalls coastal protection along the shores of the island over the years the islands was here this is the size of the island because of the erosion sea level rise and climate change we are here we need to rebuild and then you get all sorts of arguments now that's reclamation the concept of reclamation was not in your proposal you know you have to deal with this dynamics in order to fully realize the usefulness of the approved funding so keep only build seawalls where your last coconut trees is going to fall you build seawalls there so these are the difficulties the challenges we are facing but I think there is good will for us to continue to understand and build an understanding of climate funds in the governing board and also in the actual executive level so Ambassador thank you I want to ask you through you to also say something about the necessary of reclamation not just coastal and thank you for raising that question we are facing those challenges as well I'm also talking to Australia I've raised it with Australian leaders I will be raising the same issue in Poland as well this is important for the vulnerable small islands whose land had been routed into the sea over the many years so we really need to restore that land but otherwise other countries, small islands are still you know facing difficulties in accessing but I think those funds in fairness have improved a lot as they gain experience and understanding over the years so thank you very much for your question so it sounds like adaptation is needed in some of the institutions as well so I think we've heard about just one last question Prime Minister I'm a journalist with German Press Agency I wanted to ask your opinion about the impact on migration and what your views are in reference to climate change induced migrants because a lot of European countries are rejecting it including Australia also as already said that they will reject it what are your views on that and also you've touched a little bit on this your message to COP 24 in Poland what's it going to be will you be taking up the Pacific Island insurance scheme will you be taking up that as one of the agendas what do you want COP 24 to achieve thank you thank you very much on the last one yes indeed it is I think it's imperative for the Pacific Island countries who don't really fall into economies that can attract investments for insurance to have that Pacific Island insurance cover otherwise the people will just be left to their own device to adapt and cope with impacts of climate change including erosion on their lands as I was saying so we need that type of facility to be put in work in the Pacific and I will be raising that in Poland but on the compact global compact of migration the issue with the Tuvalu we've been saying we are not going to move away and the people have been suggesting why don't you have a fallback option so that we can establish a contingency plan maybe to relocate the people of Tuvalu somewhere in case all the islands are inundated but at the moment we still believe we can save the islands by seeking the intervention of the international community to build coastal protective measures even to raise the level of the islands to you know higher than what sea level was because to say that we are moving to plan B to be okay we can migrate with dignity or it's a defeatist approach to say and it's very very dangerous at the moment as far as I can see as we try to conclude the actual operationalizing of the Paris Agreement because I think if we move that way what's the point of adaptation you may as well pack up but this is very very scary if you have a strong cultural base cultural livelihoods in the islands you depend on your culture you cannot be displaced and take your culture with you never and then your rights to participate your rights to vote what will happen to these rights and that's why I'm very very as a leader I'm very scared to even mention that this is an option for Tuvalu and I will never say that with the people of Tuvalu we remain strong and stay in their islands and continue to be there in a sustainable manner and that is the whole idea behind we support the global compact of migration respecting the rights of the refugees those under the convention of course we should help all these people but climate change displaced people I think deserve another level of consideration so that the rights of those people displaced are properly protected and that's why we are proposing a UN resolution perhaps a convention in the future on the rights of displaced people because of climate change so that's the way I see that but Tuvalu fully supports this initiative on global compact on migration thank you thank you we have no time for the questions but I'll invite you to start a client I'd just like at this point just to thank very much the Prime Minister for not only his presentation but also his fantastic responses to the questions it's an honour to have you visiting us here and it's been in education as well thank you very much thank you
