Good morning everybody and welcome to one of my favorite cities in the world Antigua, Guatemala and you know what it's time for? It's time for an adventure and look who we have everybody's favorite, Ali. Look at Ali's man, look it's our first adventure of 2019 and we have a special guest, a new star adventurer. This is Robin one of Ali's best friends. Ali tell us something about Robin. Well Robin is a fierce warrior goddess when she hits the trail.  Why are we in Guatemala? Well we are going to run between three active volcanoes, Guatemala's three active volcanoes and we are going to make a virtual reality film about the experience. Ali is making the virtual reality film. These won't be virtual reality. This will be regular boring YouTube videos but we'll show you what it looks like when she's got all her stuff. It's really cool looking camera and stuff like that. So we're gonna go run and it's kind of like you've watched a lot of my videos like bike touring where you carry all of your stuff but instead of bike touring this is fast packing and we don't have bikes so we carry all of our stuff on our backs and little backpacks like that. Everything you see on this couch right now is gonna fit. Oh my god we're at the carry all this? What? This is a horrible idea. The elevation game we're doing is like the height of Everest so we're gonna carry what? Not in one day. We're doing this is a seven-day adventure. Stay tuned. All right we are at volcano number one it's called Paquia. David how's it going bud? Fine. Ready for the run. Ready for the run and so we're gonna run all week long. There's the ladies. We're gonna run for like seven days. Have you ever done anything like this? No not really. First time. Yeah. We're gonna see what happens. All right team. Let's go hands in. What do you think about that view? Oh yeah. What is this? It's got two eyeballs. Yeah it's got two eyeballs. Works just like your eyes so you get a 3D effect when you watch the video. Very cool. Video will come out later I'll link to it but for now enjoy this. Sometimes they get so steep. There's no point running. You just kind of walk fast and call that good. Being back here brings back a lot of memories. I first hiked this volcano in 2002 with my buddy Jeff. The first volcano I ever been up. First active volcano too and wow it was beautiful. It was also my first ever travel video. First ever travel video I ever made. I was a junior in college. We're heading up the trail here to see some lava, some smoke. This is one of the few active volcanoes here in Guatemala so we're gonna head up this trail and see what we find. Is this your first volcano Robin? Yeah. Yeah. How does it feel so far? Warming up. This is my first time ever running with a heavy backpack. This is new to me. Ali and Robin have done this before. They ran down the entire Oregon coast a couple summers ago like 400 miles. It's a lot easier to have a bike carry it for you but here we go. New adventure. There are 37 volcanoes in Guatemala. There are three active ones and Ali has planned a route that takes us up or near all of the active volcanoes. Why? Ali likes playing with fire. What I remember about Pacaia is lots of cute dogs everywhere. Hey. Hi cutie. Do you guys see what's behind me over there? That's a big volcano. That's Volcan Agua. We're gonna do that one next. How's filming going Ali? Oh it's great.  It's my little friend. Remember that cartoon Wally? It looks like Wally with the two eyes. There she goes. She's filming. Awesome. This is insane up here. We're on top kind of. You can't really go to the top of Pacaia anymore because it's dangerous so you can walk around these cool lava fields which is great. Running through these lava fields sounds kind of like running on glass. It's all crunchy, squeaky. It's pretty warm. There's definitely some warmth coming out of these vents which helps motivate you to go faster. Just in case Pacaia decides to erupt. The minerals they're just melted and they form these like colors like shiny colors. Beautiful. We're looking at Pacaia right now the lava fields and you can see some red. There's no way this camera can pick it up. You can see the small little rivers of lava coming down. Pretty cool. David when's the last time this volcano erupted? 2014. And what did it do? It filled up all the greater that we saw back there. I'm really grateful to be here. It's incredible. Okay we've gone up and over Pacaia. Really not that long. Maybe like four or five miles.  We're in these little dust tunnels. Probably old lava. Lava shoots. We made it. Yeah. Volcano number one. We had to run and catch this bus. Gracias amigo. All right. Love this. This is a serious adventure. It's a good thing we have David because this would have been hard for us to figure out. Is this what fast packing is, Allie? Yep, we're fast packing. This is it right here. By the reaction of all the trucks honking at us, I've been feeling people don't do this very often here in Guatemala. Hey Allie, if my mom knew that you were gonna take us running on highways, I don't know if she'd be so psyched. This is great. This is pure adventure right here. Doing this so we can get to this. Look at that. All right, we're leaving the highway. We're leaving the highway. That's nice.  That was pretty fun ridden on the highway. Have you ever done that before? No, not one. Actually like most of the popular sports here is biking and running. Really? Okay. You always see like people running on the weekends. Okay, good. Like biking so it's like normal. So people always just cheer people on who are running. That's awesome. I love it. And so now where are we going? We're going to Santa Maria de Jesús. That's based on our volcano because we are climbing that volcano tomorrow. Oh yeah. Trash on the side of the road like this unfortunately is something that's very common in Central America. When I lived in Honduras for two years I was just appalled by this. It's crazy and you know you blame it on the people.  And you can do that easily. But also there's just they don't have a good system for trash pickup.  So why don't you just put it there in the first place? It's a tricky subject but unfortunate because a lot of this beautiful country looks like that. Here we go with an uphill interview. We like to make it hard here on Doosr TV. Allie, what do you love about fast packing? It gets you into this really clear space.  You have such an instant bond with your team because you're really working together you know. We're all carrying stuff to make camp. I feel I feel my best when I'm running and honestly it's also just an excuse to run all day. Life is really simple in your fast packing. It's like bike packing right? Everything that you need is on your back and if you don't have something you know the community provides the land provides. You have to find it. I love that simplicity. I love to be doing real human things. Alright we are in Santa Maria and I'm really tired. I didn't eat much today and I'm kind of cranky. But over here we made it. High five Allie. I got your camera in my hand. Camera 5. Camera 5. We just arrived at the place we're gonna stay tonight and check this out. Whoa.  Are you saying Hola? Hola.

hello and welcome to the session in which we would look at a CPA exam simulation. The first thing you do when you look at a CPA exam simulation is determine what type of simulation am I dealing with. Well it looks like here I need to do some computation so it's entry computation I have to input some numbers here. Okay second is what is the topic of the simulation just by looking at this column here it says adjusted adjustments to calculate federal taxable income I might be looking at schedule M1 well before I make that decision let me just take a look and read what's given to me quest is a calendar year a cruel basis C corporation nothing much about that uh refer to exhibit above for the description I've selected year two transaction I'm not gonna look at the I'm not gonna look at the exhibits yet in column B enter the amount to be reflected on schedule M1 reconciliation of income losses per books with income per return as an adjustment to calculate federal income taxes good now I know the topic of this simulation it's a schedule M1 what should happen now stress level should go down confidence level should go up now there's only one exhibit here it looks like here two transaction they could give you multiple exhibit it does not matter it does not matter schedule M1 a schedule M1 whether you know how to reconcile schedule M1 or not that's that's a separate story because I'm going to show you you are giving one exhibit but I can take this exhibit and turn it into multiple exhibits so the point is the topic is schedule M1 I'm studying with farhat I know schedule M1 inside out I can go ahead and get started before we proceed any further I have a public announcement about my company farhat lectures dot com farhat accounting lectures is a supplemental educational tool that's gonna help you with your CPA exam preparation as well as your accounting courses my CPA material is aligned with your CPA review course such as becker roger wiley gleam miles my accounting courses are aligned with your accounting courses broken down by chapter and topics my resources consist of lectures multiple choice questions true false questions as well as exercises go ahead start your free trial today so what I'm gonna do now I'm gonna look at the exhibit and if I look at the exhibit it's given me the information here below this is a description of year 2 transaction from quest financial statements and tax record now for each item I can give you a separate exhibit this is what I meant to say you are giving one exhibit you think it's easy but there are a lot of information here so let's go ahead and get started you focus on one topic at a time your income per books is 632,000 so simply put we're going from income per books to taxable income this is what schedule M1 is going from income per books to taxable income and what's the purpose of this the IRS wants to see if you are reporting too much net income per books and not a lot for taxable income they want to see that discrepancy that difference and again schedule M1 is fully covered at farhat lectures starting with depreciation well I need to know what am I giving about my depreciation here's what I'm giving quest recorded book depreciation of 200,000 simple English well for gap purposes we deducted 200,000 dollar on the financial statement and calculated a maker's depreciation deduction of a 224 and section 169 of 16 so there's a difference between the two what's the difference for book purposes I took 200,000 of deductions for tax purposes I'm taken 224 which is maker's a tax and section 179 deduction a tax so I am taking in total 240,000 in tax deduction what does that mean it means on schedule M1 I have to increase my deduction so it's a negative I have to increase my deduction of depreciation expense of how much of how much specifically 40,000 so for as far as this adjustment it's a negative 40,000 but again what is the negative it means it means if I'm going from 632 this is my net income per books I am going to deduct from this an additional 40,000 it's going to reduce my taxable income why it's going to reduce my taxable income because I am claiming more depreciation for tax purposes now remember depreciation the difference between book and book and tax sometimes you have you claim more sometimes you claim less you have to understand how the information is giving the information here 200,000 was deducted to come up to 632 well if you're going from book income to taxable income take an additional 40,000 because for depreciation for tax purposes they're giving more deduction now before we proceed make sure also I just I don't want to mislead you just make sure you read you read this real quick to make sure there is no other thing about depreciation if there is we're gonna read it then we'll go back and make an adjustment but make sure you know you're done with depreciation because the next topic is cash dividend okay that's easy quest declared and paid a 40,000 dollar cash dividend in june year two and declared a 30,000 cash dividend in december year two payable in january what's the adjustment on schedule m1 i'll give you a minute to think about it the adjustment is zero dividend has nothing to do with schedule m1 dividend has to do with schedule m2 if you're preparing m2 you have to be aware of how to reconcile this but we're dealing with schedule m1 and I do have a separate recording for schedule m2 if need be but for this you don't want to waste your time on the exam day zero move on third item charitable contribution let's see what we are told here quest paid 30,000 of cash contribution in year two and 10,000 of charitable contribution approved by the board of directors to qualifying organization were accrued at the end of year two and paid on the extended tax return filing date we have to be very very careful here this like there's a small trick here that if you if you don't pay enough attention to it you'll be in trouble okay we paid 30,000 dollar cash contribution that's fine that's deductible for tax and that's deductible for gap because for gap you can deduct anything you want to cash contribution but it's also deducted for tax because you paid it and 10,000 of charitable contribution were also deducted were accrued at year two for financial accounting purposes you can accrue anything you want to for gap you can also deduct this 10,000 how about for tax purposes can you take this 10,000 dollar as a deduction well let's see it was approved by the board of directors that box is checked because if it's accrued for tax purposes it has to be approved it has to be approved and it has to be paid by after three and a half month after the year end so by April 15th was it paid by April 15th no it was paid on the extended tax return filing date what does that mean it means for tax purposes I'm sorry you're not gonna get this for year two you're gonna get this deduction for year three assuming there's no other limitation but the 10,000 it did not check the approved it checked one box not the other box which is payment by by the original due date which is three and a half month after the after the deduction so simple English what does that mean it means for book purposes you deducted if I believe 40,000 right um yes for book purposes you deducted 40,000 dollar of so to come up to this 632 you you deducted 40,000 that's fine you are allowed to do that for gap if you're going from gap to taxable income guess what you have to add back you you're gonna lose that you have to add back 10,000 as an adjustment so in other words you're gonna increase your taxable income by 10,000 because you're going from book income to taxable income at the 10,000 why because the 10,000 is not deductible this year for tax purposes why not because it was paid with the extension you have to pay it within the original due date which is three and a half month if we were talking about a calendar year tax payer it's the April 15th ordinary gain on sale of office equipment let's take a look at that we are told quest calculated an ordinary gain of 8,000 for tax purposes we have a gain of 10,000 on the sale of fully depreciated office equipment to a 60 percent shareholder so we have a gain well it doesn't matter it's a gain whether it's 60 percent 30 percent gain is a gain there is no limitation on the gain so for tax purposes we have 8,000 of a gain quest recorded a gain of $2,000 on this sale for book purposes so remember because we have a different depreciation for book purposes the gain was 2,000 why 2,000 for tax why 2,000 for books 8,000 for tax well different depreciation method different depreciation method will give you different book value different book value will give you different gains and losses between book and tax but you are told the difference so to arrive to this net income per books we were we added $2,000 of a gain where if we're going from books to taxable income the gain should be 8,000 so what do I need to do I need to add to my to this income an additional $6,000 which is the gain is good but it's gonna be taxed I'm gonna have to add $6,000 okay $6,000 gain losses on sale of investments what are we given about this quest recorded the following gains and losses on sale of investment in public companies for book and tax purposes so sort of the same for book and tax they have a loss May 1st a gain June June 2nd for 7,000 a loss on September 4th of 8,000 so let's net them out okay if we net them out we have 4,000 of losses plus 8,000 of losses 12,000 in losses 12,000 in losses 7,000 in gains overall we have $5,000 in gains that's that's basically what we have I'm sorry $5,000 in losses there are more gains and losses $4,000 in losses well for gap purposes what do we do for gap purposes we would report the $5,000 of losses the $5,000 is deducted capital gains $5,000 it's deducted to arrive to the $632,000 how about tax purposes how about tax purposes can you deduct access losses because we have $5,000 in access capital gains losses can we deduct this and the answer is no we cannot deduct this because we can only deduct losses against capital losses against capital gains and we have access so if we have access losses and that losses reduced our tax reduced our book income by $5,000 to come up to federal taxable income I have to add back those $5,000 because I cannot take it as a deduction so there's a $5,000 deduction taken to come up to the $632 imagine there's a negative $5,000 to come up to $632 well I have to add $5,000 to go to my taxable income ordinary ordinary gains and losses on sale of property well quest recorded the following ordinary gain losses on the sales of property to a 25% shareholder for book and tax purposes so we have $6,000 $6,000 of gain $2,000 of gain that's $8,000 $8,000 of losses on July 15th and $4,000 of losses on May 18th so those are ordinary gains ordinary gains so what do we need to do with this ordinary gains well for one thing ordinary gains there's no special rules they're not like capital gains and losses okay and we are told it's the same for book and tax there's no difference the only thing you are giving here is the losses are for a 25% shareholder again it does not make a difference because 25% shareholder the related party rules don't kick in what does that mean overall it doesn't mean anything there's no difference here remember we're dealing with ordinary gains and losses and we are told they are computed the same way for tax and books there's no difference between the two and the only thing that my throw students off is the 25% shareholder it does not matter it's it's 25% the losses are regular ordinary losses there's nothing to worry about therefore the answer is zero now if you know what should they have done also they should have told you to compute taxable income which is you will take 632 minus 40,000 plus 10,000 plus 6 plus 5 and you will come up with taxable income so let's let's summarize and after we looked at the simulation what is the key to the simulation well the key the well actually yeah the answer would be wrong the last one if you had one of them wrong which is that's that's unfair so that's good they gave it to you separately so the key is you need to know schedule M1 adjustments and each adjustment was independent from the other ones some of them are really easy as long as not they're all easy as long as you understand schedule M1 you're saying but but professor Farhad this is an easy simulation I don't have a lot of exhibits well yes how about if I gave you for example for this for this line here just to give you an example okay I would give you one exhibit the schedule of depreciation of the assets and I you know somehow the 200,000 dollar is there another schedule for makers where I don't even I don't even view the schedule for makers I'll give you the tables I'll say compute makers based on the following and you have to come up with 224 and 16 so yes this simulation could involve exhibits and it may not involve exhibits as the information is given here directly the point it does not matter if you know your rules for schedule M1 if you're using Farhad and know the rules inside out bring it on bring schedule M1 on you should be happy when you see schedule M1 whether it's a multiple choice or a simulation all what I'm gonna tell you now is to stay motivated invest in yourself good luck and stay safe


All right good morning cyber traders welcome back on this Thursday. How's everybody doing this morning? Good to see you all can we get a little chat? All right. I'm just look at a couple of things right here and Where is he all right, we had talked to him a little bit, but I was looking for Andre I wanted to see where he is. I guess he didn't log in log in yet everyone. Good to see you all anyway So what happened a great morning so far this stock? MED oh my god, look at this thing this thing just pop just literally at one of the program trading times Which is right around that 830 time frame and I guess big news is came out on the stock You could see it right there at that 830 move stock runs from 425 Listen didn't I want to stop all the way up until about eight dollars and even if you jumped in 15 minutes late and Sit there and watch it within that 20 cent move boom thing just ran. It's running up another 50 cent stock has just been This basically just paid for the whole day We're I mean I think some of you should quit right now just take the money and run You don't need to make any more than that this stock goes to 12 great it goes back down to four You screwed but that alone has just been unbelievable of a stock right there meds Pre-market pre-market pre-market.

I got about another five or ten videos coming out So But I definitely want to do a video on how to make these cookies. They're phenomenal All right. So anyway enough with enough with the cookies Maybe not I might have to try another one But anyway, let's go find out what's going on in the market because the markets obviously doing great We got a nice run up that's going out this meds right here. We'll talk a little bit about it but there were a couple of the stocks that we traded yesterday's want to bring those up really quick and Where am I let me bring up my chart right here. Oh, is that look at a two-day chart? Look how gorgeous that intraday chart looks on a meds. Unbelievable. So there were a couple of stocks that moved yesterday. See you And that was a really nice move yesterday. You can see a stock right here went from three Like I got a cookie stuck on my throat Delicious We had this stock that had a really nice move right here. It literally went from you could see from $3 Right now pre-market was awesome It kind of died after the market opened up But this was just like the med stock that we saw it did nice little shaker on five went all the way to nine You know unbelievable moons unbelievable Stock that made a great move in pre-market. We did well with that one ASTS also another nice little mover right here right at the gate 930 stock just had a really nice push ran from like 1280 all the way up to about 1540 Another one that did pretty well. Let me just keep this up big me. This will help out Br qs that one also nice little move doesn't look as pretty as the other one But that one also did pretty well, but the other ones I mean that pre-market one the the CU EN was just more than enough than what we really needed I personally wasn't excited about yesterday. We're doing a phase three. We got Lesson three and four today. So gold students don't forget right after this We're gonna jump into that but like I said yesterday. I really wasn't that impressed We had that nice little pre-market. I thought actually kind of stunk of the day and listen We're going to four to July weekend. It's good. This is gonna be it's it's there's three big weekends Here in the United States you have Memorial Day Forty-July and Labor Day. So Forty-July week a very big week by the way I'll full my Canadian friends out there. Happy Canada. Don't think I didn't forget about you Love my Canadian friends out there. So look forward. Hopefully. I hope you guys enjoy your day But we're closed on Monday. Remember that's Forty-July. It's being observed Forty-July is on a Saturday a Sunday So we're gonna reserve on a observe it on a Monday, but but definitely it's gonna be a really nice You know, I just be very careful going into this weekend the markets up about 59 points We had a little bit of a rally yesterday But like I said, I didn't see that much out there, but that med stock has just been just been a really really nice move Look, she's still going. She's still going. She's still strong. Is it ever too late to buy a stock? Is it ever too late? You know what? Follow the money It's all you have to do. So anyway, we got that meds on the tray and we'll work also on the list And see what else is out there. Here's a new company. It's a new IPO that came out doing phenomenal start at $10 Thing is up about 22 bucks.  I prefer the other one another very inexpensive stock I had this one this morning that was on our big watch list, but I don't know what happened She's kind of like she kind of died but We know that sometimes the market opens up at 9 30 program trading kicks in these things make a big move I'll put that on the watch list. We cannot forget the BLIN That thing was just an animal for us the last couple of days. Some of you literally I mean, some of you are so new here.  You didn't know if you wanted to sell it, you know, but It's got a little beat up yesterday, but she's moving again this morning BLIN look at that went from two dollars to nine dollars. I mean 500% Still harping over the mean stocks. Well, guess what? These mean stocks out there every day at Cybertrade University No, the stock I found this morning that made a nice pop But she also started to find a little bit of her sweet spot. There's a 40 all stocks stock at hammered WNW I like this move at 730, but she did this nasty shake She went from 1050 down to 850 that that really hurts So I would be careful of that one. Also, I don't like that when we when a stock does that kind of a Volatility, but we do know like sometimes around 1030 in the morning Eastern time Sometimes, you know, we know those are resistance levels. So if the stock does have a push, remember, don't undestine By the way tip of the day a lot of people always tell me They always ask me a like, how do you track pre-market? Well, some of your platforms unless you turn on your charting you're not going to know where it is So pre-market make sure you have your default set when you do your trading Another couple of stocks up here. Listen, we're looking at the big percentage gainers of the Nasdaq 7th on the list is already up 19% But some of them are not really that tradable low volume. No good tier sizes This one on the other hand good volume for pillow 4 million shares up 11% cheap little stock $2 and 50 cents I like these stocks. I really do less risk more reward Going on the on the watch list We have this one on the list CU EN Okay, I mean like I said not as pretty as the MEDS MEDN did but that pretty decent not bad. Remember, there's a lot of them that are moving this morning Alright, I'm done with the big of the Nasdaq. I'm a chop over here on the losers. You know, I'm a big fan of bottom fishing I don't really see anything out there. Oh, this one's taking a big hit. That's probably not on my short list though Knowing that New York stock exchange sorry stock exchange stocks. I haven't really seen that much moving on Yesterday last couple of days. I mean, this is up 38% But she's not really going anywhere same thing.

President of the United States of America. Well, I think that the Secretary of State should be noticed there. The Marine Corps colors on that vest. And you're too far away to see that the buttons are Marine Corps buttons. This is, of course, but McFarlane, their Marines. And now some of you others, I think you ought to know that George offered to let me wear that vest, but I felt it'd be a little out of keeping since I was in the horse cavalry. And I didn't want to be untrue to them, although when World War II came along, I was called to active duty. The horses weren't called to active duty, and I wound up flying a desk for the Air Force. I brought every desk in at 5 o'clock. Perfect landing.  The back home millions of Americans are observing Veterans Day, the day set aside to honor you and those who served before you. America honors its veterans because it's their dedicated service and sacrifice that preserves our freedom and keeps us free. And on this Veterans Day, there's a particularly important reason to think about the price of freedom. And the struggle for freedom and peace is an honorable but difficult challenge to proclaim it's easy to win it is hard. Our most recent heroes, those still serving and those just back from Beirut and Grenada, gave America the same dedication and valor as the millions of veterans before them. And one week ago today, I had the privilege to visit Camp Lejeune. It was a day of profound sorrow, but also intense pride. Your country and the core paid tribute to those who stood in harm's way and gave their last full measure of devotion so that others might have the chance to find freedom. Words could never express what the patriotism of those young Americans means to the soul of America. It's these brave heroes, generation after generation of them who've kept America free, protected our heritage of liberty. Thanks to them, America remains the brightest star of hope to the rest of the world. Vietnamese boat people call out, hello, freedom men to our sailors. I received a letter, a copy of a letter that a boy had sent to his parents in one of our carriers that had picked up a boat about to sink with the Vietnamese refugees. And that's what they were trying to say, even though they could not speak our language was, they had mastered that much, calling them freedom men. The Grenadian villager shouts, now we're free. I don't know whether you've heard that 91% of the people on Grenada, according to a poll that has now been taken, and not by us, but by the press when they got in there, that 91% of them declare, yes, ours was a rescue mission. And they were the people that were rescued, and they were glad we were there. And people more than America celebrates this Veterans Day, freedom-loving people everywhere, here in Japan, in Lebanon, and on the frontiers of freedom around the world understand the value of what our veterans willingly and unselfishly have given and continue to give. And today is also the first day of the 209th year of the Marine Corps. Now, it isn't true that I was present at that first birthday. It is true, however, that I was around when it was Armistice Day and for the first Armistice Day. But on behalf of 230 million Americans, I can say from the bottom of my heart, happy birthday to the Corps. And by the way, I want you to know another reason that this gives me so much pleasure. The Marine Corps is one of the few groups left that has been around longer than I have. When our founding fathers authorized the four service branches, they understood that freedom isn't free. And they knew that freedom can't flourish with people unable and unwilling to defend it. The armed forces do defend it and always have. And born as a commitment to freedom, they've honored that commitment every single day. You do it the hard way, on lonely outposts, in bloody battles far from home and many times against the odds, but always with the dedication and spirit of the armed services. Spirit like when the 22nd Marine Amphibious Unit left the beaches of Grenada. And after a magnificent operation, I might add, the last words on their battle report were on to Beirut. And that's where they are and possibly arriving, if they have not already in the next day or so, as a rotation for the men that have been there. More than 200 years have passed since we became a nation. The world has changed in a million ways. But some things thank the good Lord have not, and courage and honor have not. You, our men and women in uniform, have always kept the faith to God, country, and family. And today, on behalf of every American, may I raise a glass high symbolically, now not having one in my hand, but to raise a glass in toast to all of you, to our armed forces, wherever you may be in the world. When doing your duty offers others the chances to find peace and freedom into the greatest country this world has ever known, the United States of America. And the day before we left to come here on this trip, I can remember some other things. I remember 10 years ago when young people your age on campuses all over America sneered at anyone in uniform and considered you the enemy. Well, we had 490 of the young students who were rescued from St. George's University on Grenada and brought back to America. They were on the South lawn of the White House. And we were able to get 40 men, 10 from each branch of the service that participated, in that rescue mission on Grenada. And believe me, America is a different America. Those 490 young people made it very plain that they owed their lives to those 40 men and their companions who couldn't be there, weren't there. And they made it very plain that as far as they're concerned, you in uniform are their heroes from here on out. And it was a wonderful thing to see. So now I understand that I'm supposed to make dent in that cake. And I understand also the tradition.


Two routine. Line four, none. Line five. Sierra dead. Line T, none. Hey Gonzo, you're going to take front security as well as where's Allardine? You and Gonzo are going to take it. Like quite a bit, I'd say.


So, good afternoon, everyone. Let me thank UNDUNC and Vietnam for inviting me to have presentations at the workshop conference. So for my presentations, I will talk about the three topics. First is the link between economic transformation, inclusive roles, and gender equality. And the second is overview of gender issues in Vietnam when we talk about economic transformation and inclusive role model in Vietnam now. And the third one is some policy recommendations. Yes, first link between economic transition and economic roles and gender equality. Let me start with three questions that are very frequent to be asked at any conference when we talk about the gender equality and economic development. So first is how economic development and growth affect gender equality. Actually, many international empirical studies indicate that economic development brings higher income and also better services for the people. And of course, it also affects the good positive impact on the reduced gender equality and education employment. Now, take one example in Vietnam. For example, we now almost gender equality in education as a primary secondary and almost at the upper higher school, almost close to the gender gap. And also even in some colleges, now we have also more women and men in the education levels. And also employment, when we see the data, we see that Vietnam is one of the countries that have very high ratio of the women's employment and labor force. That is one hand. On the other hand, how it's not mean that economic development necessarily lead to the gender equality. I can show also one example from Vietnam. Actually, it's now one of the gender issues. Pressuring the gender issues in Vietnam is an imbalance, a ratio at birth. Actually in the study also indicate that this very high-racial imbalance, a ratio at birth amongst rich families and urban areas, not in the poor and rural areas. That is a story about the technology, also economic development, who can access the technology, who had income and also money to use the technology, like a selected abortion, abortions. So it lead to the very gap in the ratio at birth of Vietnam between the boy and girls when born. And the second question, how gender equality impact on economic growth. So there is more strong evidence on the impact of gender inequality. Hand-hambles economic growth, very study show that more gender equality, for example, is a high ratio of fertility and also linked to the lower rate of surviving and also lower rate of the children going to school. So we can see it from the short-term and long-term effects. So gender equality has a positive impact on economic growth, even if we see the human resource development and also the education investment in the world and boys' difference in some countries, Asians, like Vietnam. And the third question is, is growth gender exclusive? Actually it's not only gender, but inclusive and relevant in ethnic minority issues also in Vietnam. And we think that even now in Vietnam, ethnic minority account only 14% of the population, but they account for more than 50% of the poor. So that means when we say about the growth that includes the gender, women, ethnic minority and migrants may include it, may be excluded from that process. And also here, if the women very unpaid work burdens and limited access to resources and shows a norm to attach them to the household and family responsibility and this own concern to women to capture the wealth and high-paying sectors in Vietnam. And also when we are now talking about the Vietnam economic transition and we see that the status come in the low-medium income status of Vietnam and Vietnam on track to meet all, nearly all, MDGs targets. However, the problem is remaining, is persistent poverty, increasing equality. And also at this time also speed of poverty reductions. Economic growth rate has slow and increase the risk of falling back to poverty for emotional populations, as I said, women, ethnic minority and migrants. And also low-medium income status of Vietnam has been derived a lot by the performance of the export front and also it is a cheap labor of the women in the industry zone and also women involved in the subsistence agriculture, limited job skills and physical isolation. So that means that even though we have achieved a quite good number of indicator on economic growth, but remaining the social and gender equality issues. And the challenges now when we talk about the higher value-added activity for continuing growth and also increased competitiveness. So that means that the women is faced a lot of challenges and difficulties when they are involved in that process. How to involve in the higher value-added job? How to involve in the higher paying sector? That is challenge for the women. And the second topics, I am talking now about the overview of gender issue in the economic transformation in Eglushko in Vietnam. Some achievement, you may know that Vietnam has achieved remarkable progress on gender equality. Compared to the other countries that have similar economic relevance, we have quite progressed gender equality in education, as I said, already almost closed the gender gap as a primary and secondary schools and also gender equality outcome in house, labor force and political participation in Vietnam. Labor force, Vietnam is now the women involved in the labor force, almost 75%. One of the countries is high in the regions and political participation in Vietnam now also quite high compared to the region, 24% of the women is the national assembly members. And also we have leg and framework for gender equality. This can be very comprehensive, we have gender equality law, it already passed six years ago, national treasury on gender equality, gender mainstreaming and legislation as one requirement of the law when to be passed as the national assembly. But the challenge is also a lot, gender equality educations, even we have a lot of progress on gender equality and creation, but gender gap here is related to ethnic minorities. It's very big gap between ethnic minority and majority in terms of educations. And the segmentation of the labor market, of course when we talk about the economy, the labor market is very critical element and women more representative in informal employment and bird work, low-wish and unsafe working conditions and fewer benefit of the safety net because they are involved mostly in the informal sector, so that is a sector is not governed by the labor court, so they are less of course protectives. Gender gaps in vocational training and technical educations, it's very important for Vietnam now if we talk about how to innovate economic model, if without any high qualification and technical skills. And here is low percentage of the women who have vocational training, short term training, only seven weeks or seven months is very different from the men who can join like high school for vocational training and also here is gender stereotype on vocational training. Women involved very traditional job like showing, textile, and actually it's very conscious for the women to involve the new job like energy, ICT, infrastructures. So that is very new relevant job and very important for the Vietnam continuing growth, but it's conscious for the women to involve in because of gender stereotypes. Informal sector is not governed by the labor court and so unpaid work actually is Vietnamese women very burden with unpaid work. They do both paid work and unpaid work and limited sharing from the husband to the wife in the household cause. Limited integration of gender specific concern in current economic policy. So we come back with this letter with our recommendation on the economic policy. As a challenges gender relation is influenced very much by traditional Confucian doctrine. So Vietnam is one of the Asian country like other maybe I think also China and also Korea is some country influenced very much by the Confucian. Why the patriarchy behavior is still very wrong even now? Even we have a lot of like economic outcome and social trends, but gender stereotype and also patriarchy behavior is very strong in the traditional family. So it is the women in fear of status in the family. For example even we have the land law and there's a lot of stipulate both men and women have their name on certificate of the using of the land, but actually traditionally on the certificate almost so far now 70% state on land. And also some preference ideology is very strong until now in Vietnam and also men reluctant to share household family responsibility. So all these stereotypes burden of the women also impact on their participation in economic activities. Now I come back to the last point, the policy recommendations. So first that is very important to have integration, gender equality into implementation of economic policy at all levels. In my personal view, so far now economic policy is being announced in very separate from the social. If we don't integrate or we don't concern about the gender equality in the economic policy we are not sure that gender equality will be achieved. When we talk about the financial policy, we talk about the monetary policy, but actually how is it impact on men and women and also it's not it's real cut. And we have we don't have enough like evidence also study on that even in other countries they have very good study on how is the policy financial crisis impact on the women different from the women and men. And the second one is social protection, security policy need to be gender responsive. Recently UN women in Vietnam and also many ships of labor labor labor and social affairs in Vietnam conducted on the social protection policy in Vietnam from gender perspective. And you see that even we have number of good policy on social protection, but it not it doesn't mean that so we mean equally benefit from this policy. We are not concerned about the gender about the women issues on the challenges is facing by the women in order to benefit from that program. And the third one is promoting intensive for the women to join integrated economic deeply. Actually now women women Vietnamese women account for almost nearly half of labor force in Vietnam, but it very segregated in some sector and is a unskilled work. That's why in order to promote model women we have a lot of incentive for the women to enjoy as a sector non-traditional sector like a technology, ICT, energy and infrastructure. So I think that is a challenge when we talk about the gender story about the women because in Vietnam it's very common to talk about the women like ability or how women suitabilities to that job or not. That is question of stereotyped. Engaging the private sector for gender responsive enterprise development. Actually the private sector is new sector in Vietnam. I don't know, I'm not sure and I don't know where the private any forum or conference on private services discussed about the solution about gender equality or not. Actually it's now until now we talk more about gender equality in public sector but private sector is in out of the sphere. So I think that in the next years is very important because women now more involved in the small and medium enterprise that is private sector and how the private sector need to be respond for the solution issue and also gender equality. Formalizations of informal jobs and employment we could enable a process to work protection of the vulnerable groups. Because as I said we mean a car for majority in the informal sector. That is unsafe working conditions and a low-page and also less protected by the law. So how we can formalization of this sector that is a very bad way to protect the women and also ethnic minority in the poor. As the last one in review and building a national database system on women and men in orphan of economic changing, education and social security. Because we collect data, we collect segregated data on men and women in orphan. As I said because we have no discrimination to men and women in Vietnam but actually if we have the data we can see very different between men and women in that sector. So that is the last point of my presentation so thank you very much for your attention.


Welcome back to the storm walkthrough. This is probably going to be one of the shortest episodes Ever actually next episode will probably be even shorter, but today we are not allowed to use any Any mounts so that's fun. So we're just going to be walking for a while But luckily it's not a lot of stuff to do today Obviously we're heading into Crocotopia which is fun fun fun fun fun first new world is even better for everybody because Look crocodile. Yay. Looks so weird only having like two worlds in the world list, but hey that's what happens when you're new and You know you just got to do what you got to do we get a potion as well, which is really really really cool But yeah, there's six quests that we're doing today, and I'm thinking we're about to be ending the first right now Um, so that's fun. There we go. We've got one quest left to do today So I'm not one five quests left and basically all of them are just talking and exploring so that's fun We are allowed to use marks. However, we just have to run everywhere. So um Yeah, we'll be a bit tedious, but at least you don't have to sit through me running everywhere Let's sit over here. I'm not gonna be picking up any of these side quests here there's only one place where I do side quests and Well, you'll see when we get there. It's not actually too far away But yeah, you'll see when we get there. I always forget how like small Crocodopia actually is like you think it's so big, but it actually isn't very big at all It's actually a very very Very small world. I thought I was gonna be pulled there, but I wasn't I'm just super super pro really good at the game They really need to make archaeology much more difficult than just pressing X on something You know, it takes way too little like actual skill to do I think they should really make it more realistic and actually have you do something instead of just pressing X But hey, that's just my idea What's next? We are going to defeat any Narene for a key. Oh, we get a mount. Wow They're just trolling us at this point really pokey pokey Let's see how many this takes for me to get the key. Will it be to will it be one? Will it be four? Will it be eight? Who knows find out next time on will Brent get what he wants. Oh Man, I love some but I forgot that this was the thing God, I love not getting tempest on time.  Well, if you guessed to you would be correct Congratulations, if you guessed to you can have six Brent points can be redeemed at any Brent redeeming currency point store Cannot be traded between characters cannot be redeemed after the hours of 12 and before the hours of 12 So yeah, I have fun redeeming them. Oh look, we got a mount. Wow. If only I could use it. Oh, well Oh, look, are we done with the episode already nearly? God, it's been like five minutes man. I love Krokotopia. Oh, these first two episodes of Krokotopia I just gonna fly by really I might as well just not even like cut this up Cuz like we've done nothing The road trying to get to the end This is the most stupidest challenge in the game Why would anybody suggest not to have a mount? This area is so big. Why would you not have a mount here? Please get a mount you can buy them with gold. They don't even cost that much. Let's get the word in chairs What are we gonna get 11 gold?

Let's try this bad boy again. Hopefully this time we don't get a weakness Who knows though? Maybe they would still be mean without a weakness. We probably would have killed they go first again Of course because that's how this game goes make sense. Can we get some power pips as well? They'll be dope. That'd be so good Still good Also, we're nearly at 1000 health already and we're only what like level 12, so I'm proud of us We're actually level 15 but Levels are irrelevant when they're just numbers, so it's fine Fun fact fun fact levels are irrelevant if they're just numbers.

Oh, yeah, we can go to speak to Thomas Danforth and guess what we'll be doing that next time because we done We are here boys. That was a record time of walkthrough Episodes, so thank you for stopping by. I will catch you all next time. Thank you for watching and remember to craft


I grew up in a Christian household and it wasn't a hypocritical Christian household either like my parents really did believe the Bible. We went to church, we prayed together, we tried to live our lives by the Bible and they taught us according to the Bible. I became a Christian at an early age and I personally didn't really have a super rebellious phase where I wanted to reject everything I had been taught for my parents and just go live according to the world. Things like you know sex before marriage or you know party culture or things like that where it just protected me from those kind of environments and those kind of sins but even still I have encountered some major challenges and temptations that maybe if you're similar to me you've experienced too. One of the key temptations that we experience is that if we haven't really explored a sin or you know really rebelled in a particular way and we might think or tell ourselves that that is like a missing piece like maybe that will deliver a satisfaction like yes we have Jesus yes yeah we're committed to him but in the back of our mind we're kind of like maybe that will actually bring me joy maybe that will actually bring me fulfillment whereas somebody that went through that rebellious phase somebody that had experienced all the world had to offer they already know it's empty they already know it has nothing to really deliver to them a lot of these folks when they give their testimony they're like I did all this stuff and I was depressed and I needed help and then I found God and we're like hey that's awesome but yet we kind of don't believe them like we're like really bro you got depressed off doing all that like that sounds kind of fun like if we're honest but the truth is is that we have yet to really recognize the goodness of God like what we're doing is we're telling ourselves that God is kind of giving us the short end of the stick like he's not really you know he's hiding something from us like yeah we've been playing according to the rules all our lives you know in a lot of ways yes we've rebelled yes and we repented of that yes we want to honor God with our lives but yet there's that missing piece we're like maybe I just be a little bit more happy if if I did that thing and so we have this lingering temptation or thought that you know we because we haven't done it we don't know that it's empty makes me think of a story growing up that my grandparents had this fruit bowl and was always like this pristine fruit always in the same configuration in the middle of their table and growing up I was like oh man this looks so good it's so tasty like and so one day my grandparents were looking and so I grabbed a grape had to kind of rip it off in a weird way it was kind of strange and I took a bite and it was styrofoam and I'm like what that this is empty it looked really nice on the outside but inside it was just like styrofoam it wasn't nutritious and I think in some ways that sin but sin is also it also tastes good at the beginning like it's also good it's pleasurable at the beginning so that's where the analogy kind of breaks down because we do see this thing we see this fruit bowl and we're like okay it kind of looks good we touch we try something it tastes good originally but it will lead to death and so I think of Adam and Eve in the garden when Adam and Eve were in the garden you know Satan was lying to Eve saying that if you eat from this this tree your eyes will be open and and Eve was like okay wow like she started to doubt God that maybe God had given her the short end of the stick and it took the serpent to tell her what she was missing out on and I think in some ways we us who who didn't have that rebellious stage who didn't get to experience like the full emptiness of sin because we were protected from it praise God but yet we saw some questions maybe we have some doubts of those folks that are saying sin's really empty and we're like yeah but I don't know like maybe maybe it's not that maybe it's not that maybe God is hiding something from us maybe when we do try that sin our eyes will be open and it won't be that bad after all so what do we do honestly like you're a Christian you've been living this Christian life you had been protected from a lot of these sins growing up you didn't have that crazy rebellious stage but yet you're still kind of lured by this idea that maybe you missed out on something like so what do you do well this is what the world does the world just decides well I'm just going to give up this good thing that I have and I'm going to go for this new thing they do that all the time not just in terms of God but relationships too when I was having this conversation with this guy who was telling me about how he was considering marrying his girlfriend of five years and he was telling me about his girlfriend and he had nothing but good things to say about her that there is nobody who understood him as much as she did that she was his best friend and the reason he told me that he was hesitant was because he was afraid that he was missing out on hookup culture I told him that people not always but people do hook up with others have meaningless sex to cope with the fact that they don't have what he has I told him that for the rest of his life he is going to be looking for parts of this woman in other people they have this good relationship going and yet they're enticed they're tempted by sexual immorality or hookup culture they want to experience all that the world has to offer because maybe this relationship isn't giving me what I really want this same the same thing kind of applies to our relationship with God in a lot of ways it's like we found our person early on like God scooped us up of the muck out of the muck in the mire of this world and we're like wow this is amazing this is great but then it kind of wanes a little bit in some ways and maybe we're tempted to look at the world and say oh maybe we're we actually are missing out on something maybe this this what we got going on here isn't all satisfying or all isn't giving me the joy and happiness that I really want maybe something else has something for me out there so this brings us back to other option what the world would do they would leave immediately and go find something new find something fresh that they can you know indulge themselves in but what would we do well we should trust God trust that he knows what he's doing that he isn't giving us the short end of the stick that he isn't trying to screw us and and cut us out from something that is good that he truly as is true like he wants to give us a grand inheritance and that her inheritance tied up in who he is and in our relationship with him and the eternal life that is found in him he's not trying to shortchange us for me as a 20-something I've been protected from a lot of different kind of big sins in a lot of ways and holes and traps that I could get wrapped up in and I want to thank God for that like God thank you that I didn't have to experience the full depravity of my own tendencies in that area like thank you for setting up safeguards and accountability and and rescuing me when you did so I didn't have to experience that because it is so dark and is so you know twisted and distorted truly when we talk about sin the more doors that we can keep closed the better like truly the better because what I am seeing is so many young people teenagers that are not being discipled they're not being mentored and in so doing they're opening doors to sin that are so challenging for them to close again like even talking about you know the sexual immorality realm like if you sleep with somebody you're opening that door for that possibility to do it again like once you do that you open that door and I'm not saying that God can't close that door he absolutely can't I'm just saying it's going to be a lot more challenging it really is same with pornography you watch pornography once it becomes that much more easy to watch it again and again and again and again and I know a lot of you you didn't have like an option like you didn't you you didn't look for the stuff it just found you and I'm sorry I'm sorry and truly I believe that God can work and heal and and all of that I'm just saying that it is truly a blessing when God protects us from falling into sin from an early age when he guards us against that know that if you have stumbled if you have strayed we have all strayed know that God is ready and willing to accept you back to welcome you back with celebration if you've experienced the what the world had to offer is empty and and you don't want any of any more of it you can find forgiveness and Jesus that's the whole point I love to hear some of you guys thoughts on this if you grew up Christian or maybe you didn't what are some of the temptations or pitfalls that you experienced based on how you were brought up and how your relationship with God has been I'd love to hear from you in the comments down below thank you so much to everyone who supports on patreon it is because of your support that I can continue to make this content in equipping people to follow Jesus daily so thank you so much and if you want to sign up and help me get to the next

Mom thinks she's having twins. Then, Dr. spots something incredible. Lauren Perkins is always dreamed of becoming a mom. After spending a difficult year trying and failing to fall pregnant, the idea of fertility treatments didn't seem so scary anymore. She and her husband David decided to take a vacation to Nicaragua to consider their next step. The couple, along with some friends, did exactly that. Whilst there, Lauren talked openly about their struggles to conceive. One of their friends, a priest, replied calmly, Someone up there has big plans for you. I don't know what, but it will be big. At the time it sounded strange. Lauren would soon realize the words really carried some weight. After the Nicaragua trip, Lauren returned home to Texas. She didn't think much about what the priest had said during the vacation. On the contrary, her and David had decided on one thing. They wanted to try out artificial insemination, the simplest method of assisted fertilization. Lauren was convinced that it wouldn't work, that she was destined to be barren. But it did. Lauren finally fell pregnant. In the first routine check, Lauren was told by nurses that her H-C-G levels were very high. This meant there was a strong possibility there was more than one child growing inside of her. Lauren and her husband were delighted at the idea that they might have twins or even triplets. They had struggled for so long to have a child that the idea of having more than one was too good to be true. Then the ultrasound came. A staggered doctor studied the screen for a few seconds and delivered the shocking news. The doctor quietly told her, I count five in there. Lauren thought this was impossible. The doctor turned back to the screen and then continued, wait a minute, I just found a sixth baby. The confused couple stared at the screen in complete shock. Six. Lauren and David were then faced with a difficult decision. Either they could reduce the amount of children or keep them all. The chances that all six babies would survive the pregnancy were low. To have six at the same time brings on a number of dangerous complications. After much deliberation, Lauren and David finally decided to give all six a fighting chance. Their doctors promised to do everything they could to ensure every baby was delivered safely. The hospital went through with a mighty effort to avoid complications associated with the birth. Monday morning, April 23, 2012, the day arrived. Lauren was in week 30 of her pregnancy. Children born before the 37th week are considered premature.  As the birth got underway, the doctor needed the help of six nurses standing by to receive each baby as it came into the world. No easy task and certainly one rife with stress. I was nervous and excited all at once. It was starting to sink in that this was for real. I was going to have six babies, Lauren said. It took a total of four minutes to deliver all six. Andrew, Benjamin, Caroline, Lea, Allison and Levi all weighed between one and two pounds at birth. Lauren said, I didn't expect to see my babies until the next day. But each baby's team rolled them by me one by one on their way to the NICU and I got to touch their little fingers. The children were not healthy enough to be with their parents for the first few days. At four days old, Allison was the first baby in a stable enough condition to be held. It took the nurse 10 minutes to get the wires and monitors up so Lauren could hold her. But what a feeling. And that moment when I got to hold my baby was when I became a mother of sextuplets, Lauren explained. The first few weeks were crucial in the lives of their babies. Their parents still worried about complications that could potentially lead to disabilities or in worst case death. Fortunately, all six recovered, slowly but surely. After many intense weeks of love and care from the staff in the neonatal facility, the family were able to hold all of their angels. Five of the babies were able to go home at four months old. Little Lea had to stay in hospital for an additional few weeks as she was the smallest and had struggled for space inside the womb. She was literally buried under everybody else in the womb, said Lauren. So she didn't get the right nutritional flow. Her brain was not fully developed. The family has had an abundance of support from loved ones, which has helped them immeasurably when it comes to getting through the hardest and most difficult appearance. Donations from others have also come in, both from family and complete strangers, touched by the birth and Lauren's story. Lauren, of course, has high praise indeed for all the medical staff involved. Without them, the children may never have been strong enough to go home. My doctor was the best and I am forever grateful to him for the level of care I received, Lauren says. Also, the NICU staff who put in hours upon hours getting our children ready to come home and teaching us the ins and outs of premium care. So many of these people have a special place in our hearts and family. Only recently, Andrew Noah, Benjamin Luke, Caroline Grace, Lea Michele, Alice and Kate and Levi Thomas celebrated their sixth birthday. The family has adapted to a newer, more full-on way of life. We had to get very scheduled and very structured and organized, especially in the first year. The boys, Andrew, Benjamin and Levi, and two of the girls, Alison and Caroline, are perfectly healthy today. Lea, meanwhile, has had things a bit tougher as a result of her brain not being fully developed prior to birth. She'll probably need to be cared for by her parents for a long time to come. That said, she has started school along with her siblings. She goes to general preschool for children with disabilities, but she always gives 100% and laughs all the time. She's our sunshine, Lauren says. We wish the six children all the very best in the future and look forward to seeing how they're doing in a few years.

So Ryan, first things first, how are you feeling after a couple days of treatment? Better than I was after the game. So, you know, headed in the right direction. Got a little ways to go, but been better, been worse, and headed in the right direction. What's the process in, you know, kind of doing the icing? And what's that been like the last couple days? It's a process for sure. You know, just doing everything I can in the training room here at home. All types of treatments. So, yeah, just trying to stay on top of it as much as I can and give my body the best chance to heal. Regular ankle spray? An ankle spray? That's an ankle spray, and I'll leave it at that. Will it be more of a pain tolerance thing than a structural thing when it comes down to it? I don't know. We'll see. You seem to think after the game. You guys see where this is going, right? So, I mean, you can keep trying, or we can go on to Houston, whatever you guys want to do. Do what? Did you dance at your daughter's wedding? She's four, so we're good. You got to think after the game, Ryan, that it was going to be a challenge. This week, you seemed to kind of have an idea, even at that point. Is it about kind of what you expected? What do you mean, ankle? Yeah, in terms of, like, after the game, you sort of felt that way. Is it about where you kind of... I don't know what I expected. You know, I didn't plan to feel too good after the game, and I didn't feel too good, and we're heading in the right direction. What's the challenge? Mike said you'd be limited today.  Just staying on top of things mentally. I'm just making sure I'm taking all the reps I can mentally. Obviously, I'm not physically getting as many reps as I usually do. So, making sure mentally I'm going through everything, communicating with the guys. You know, we just had a walk-through out there just trying to communicate with the guys and make sure we're all on the same page as we, you know, install this game plan and start getting ready to go. With your health situation, with your health... I'm thinking about, you know, helping Malik get ready while you're trying to see if you heal and everything. You know what I mean? Like, as you go through the week, you're taking mental reps for a game plan, but are you also in the mindset of trying to help him get ready in case? Yeah, I'm trying to help in every way possible, whether it's Malik or the tight ends or O-line, whoever the case may be. I'm just communicating, make sure, like I said, we're all on the same page and on top of this game plan as we move into the game. With being limited in your ability to take the physical reps, how do you go about getting up to speed with a brand-new guy who just walked in the door today? Yeah, yeah, we'll see how things go as the week goes on. You know, so it's a walk-through practice today, so, you know, wouldn't be any full-speed reps there as well. But, you know, as the week goes on, we'll see, you know, how I progress and how things move along. I'm just curious, what's the fascination level at home with kids when you walk in with a big boot on your foot after the game of study and what limit what you're able to do at home? Yeah, definitely. Definitely not moving around the house the way. I usually spend a lot more time rehabbing, icing, and all those types of things, and they have all the questions, you know, what's going on, you know, what is this, what is this, why are you wearing that? My daughter's asking me, you know, am I going to wear the boot during the football game? So, you know, I got all types of questions. You're more forthright with anything you already talked about. A little safer space there. As you watch the text and secondary, it seems like things are starting to come together for you. What do you see from that, especially the young corner and Stingley? Yeah, he's playing well. He's playing well. Got his hands on a few balls. He has good instincts, good range, good speed, good man coverage skills. Obviously, they play a lot of zone too, and he has a good feel for, you know, where his zone's at. So, definitely a quality corner, and he's playing well early on in his career. With Conley having spent some time in the division in the last couple of years, you've gotten a couple looks at him in person, on tape, different things like that. What are some things that stick out to you that you think he can really bring to the offense? Yeah, he's made plays. You know, that's one thing I can't remember specifically what plays that I remember him making, but I just remember him standing out in his name and making plays. So, as he, you know, comes in and gets accustomed to what we're trying to do here and what we're trying to accomplish, see how he fits in our system in the best position possible and start trying to give him the ball. How statistical success, meaning I think a couple years ago, you guys had like the second best offense in the NFL. Now you're the second worst statistically offensive and I feel how important is that to you when you see that? Wins matter at the end of the day. Obviously you want to be good, right? You want to do everything at the top level, but at the end of the day, our job is to go win and put our self in position to win and play how our team wants to play. So that's what it all comes down to. Would it be at your right ankle and your plant foot is it a big concern to be able to put enough weight on it so that you can make your throws properly? Well, that's definitely part of throwing, but we'll see here as the week goes on how that turns out. You talk a lot about Ben Jones' toughness since you've been here. When you see games like Sunday where he's kind of pulled himself off the grass and barely making the huddle, what was his expression like and would you ever look at him and say, what are you doing out here? That's just about a weekly occurrence of Ben. It seems like more weeks than not, he's peeling himself off the turf and getting back in the huddle, struggling through something. He's obviously one of the toughest guys in the game and battles to be out there each and every week, so I love going to battle with Ben. As you guys continue to win these close games, like for you personally, what do you feel you contribute to this team being able to win those close games so consistently? Our job is to go win and answer the bell. We talked about this morning. It may not always be the prettiest thing, but we're a group of fighters and a group that's going to answer the bell. We may get knocked down, we may have to re-collect and re-group, but get a chance to go back out there and opportunity to make it a two-score game or put the game away in the four-minute drive. We took advantage of those opportunities, so that's one thing that I have a lot of confidence in and our group has a lot of confidence in is we're going to find a way to win games. What are you guys doing missing without Phillips here for the next couple of weeks? Tough to see Kyle go down late last week. He was a great player and was just starting to get healthy again from his last injury. We'll miss him, but hopefully he's back soon. Which emphasis do you guys put on your wide receivers for Run Block in here and how much does that help with the kind of offense that you guys run? Well, it's huge. I think you know probably better than anybody. That's one thing we're going to ask our guys to do is go block. We believe in running the football and it takes, we say, all 11 to do that. We ask our receivers to get in there, dig out safety. Sometimes linebackers, depending on the look, could be a mismatch physically, but our guys go in there, they battle, they throw their hat in there and fight their tail off. So they're doing everything we ask. Do you guys get better at that in particular, the longer that they're here? Do you see that being a priority? Yeah, we were just pointing out on tape this morning some looks that we had from the game where guys are transitioning into blockers better, getting into their blocks, finishing downfield, things that we preached day in and day out and starting to pick up some momentum there. Talked about Ben's toughness.  Like I said, stay on top of the game plan, make sure that you're ready to go and then once it comes down to physically doing it, it's just a matter of making sure you can do everything you need to do in the game and just pushing through. Last year's game there was just so crazy.  They had nothing to play for. What do you remember about that game? Is that what you expect when you go play Houston, no matter what their record is or what they're going through? Yeah, no doubt. I was just talking to Tim this morning about it. It seems like every time we go down there, no matter what's going on in their building and their organization, they're going to play us tough. That's been the case for the last several years now. So I have a lot of respect for the way they come out and battle and play. We had to make some plays down the stretch. Like you mentioned last year, their offense was getting hot and we had to make some plays down the stretch there to win the game. So we definitely know we're walking into a game where they're going to be ready to go. What do you recall Ryan about the strides that Malik made in the preseason? It's been a while now. He's had a lot of growth since his time here. Going back to the spring up until this point, he's trying to do everything we ask of him on top of everything in the meetings and obviously he's a talented player athletically. So definitely has made a lot of strides since he's been here. Derrick's had some really big games against them.  Is the defense different with Levy there that maybe it'll be harder to sort of replicate that this time? He was there last year, you know, but Derrick wasn't out there. So maybe a little bit different in how he wants to play us. But we'll see.  Their secondary is athletic and playing really well in my opinion. Desmond is doing a really good job on the inside there. He was here with us a few years ago playing nickel for him. Like we mentioned, the corners already. So definitely a defense I have a lot of respect for and we'll see how the game goes. How much confidence did you guys have running the ball against them by the end of 2020 when he, you know, three straight 200-yard games against them and whatnot? Did you feel like everything was going to work at the end of 2020? I honestly, I don't even remember. I was so long ago and it really doesn't matter at this point. How is Derrick running now?  Had his best game Sunday with 30 carries. Does he seem to be getting into a rhythm? Yeah, it looks like it to me. You know, he's running hard. He's running physical.  So, yeah, it's good to see, you know, Derrick being Derrick. Hi. Hi, Teresa. Mike, the challenge with going to Houston, no matter what the record is with that team, those games are always tight, seem to come down to the last play of the game sometimes. Yeah, we've been through this a lot. You know, the records in this league don't mean anything. You know, they've outscored opponents 99 to 79 through three quarters. You know, so they've been in a lot of football games. They just, you know, for, you know, a couple reasons that they've, you know, given up some points there in the fourth quarter, but they've outscored their opponents 99 to 79, and they've played well. You know, they're just really getting kind of going on who they want to be offensively. It looks like, you know, a lot of respect for Pierce and Cooks. And, you know, the old line seems to start to really playing well. Pierce, a guy that maybe he didn't see as much at Florida and has really, you know, come out of his shell there in Houston, just what do you see out of him as a back? Strong runner, you know, explosive cutter, puts his foot in the ground, has got great vision.  You know, so if there's space in there, he usually finds it, runs hard through the second level, whether that's through behind his pads or spins. So great challenge. They're throwing him the football. They've got it to him in some screens in the passing game. So, you know, he's playing well. What would you say to your receiving core this year and what does Chris kindly bring to the group? Well, some size and some experience.  And, you know, I think that group's continued to get better. A lot of examples of these guys, you know, being in the right spots and, you know, whether it's, you know, woods, you know, snapping it down in between two defenders the other day on a third down, you know, Cody versus Gilmore, you know, on the backside their ability to block. You know, we had, you know, Ryan pulled the ball the other day and woods, you know, immediately transitioned into what he was, from what he was doing to, to protecting the quarterback. So, you know, there's a lot of things that go unnoticed that I think are continuing to improve. How are we going to bring guys in whether it's a big ticket free agent, undrafted guy, whatever. Is there a certain trait that you look for that you feel contributes to those tight games that you guys seem to win a lot?  How do you go about finding out whether or not they have, if it's a new guy, like a guy you're drafting? And there's a lot of different things we try to do, you know, sometimes we do a good job at it and it works out and sometimes we don't. So I don't know if there's a perfect science to it. How's Ryan and how much do you think he'll be able to do for that? I think he's getting better. You know, I don't think he'll take, you know, the full reps that he would normally take, he'll probably end up being limited as the injury report comes out. You expect to put in a package, at least for Malik this week, regardless of ride status for Sunday? Well, I mean, I think those things, you know, Malik's expected as is everybody to prepare as the starter. You know, we've got a multitude of plays that we can run, the ones that we have in that we feel like can help us win against Houston and then, you know, there's other plays that we could go to if, you know, another quarterback had to be in there. I don't know what Ryan's situation will be throughout the week, but what's the key for a quarterback to be successful on a Sunday in a week where he potentially could be limited throughout practices? Well, I think it would be the same for any position.  You know, offensive linemen would have communication calls and certainly the quarterback is at the forefront of that to making sure that, you know, everybody's in the right place. So, you know, whatever the plan is this week to prepare, I know that Ryan will do everything that he can. Is there a scenario where Woodside might have to be considered to practice squad elevation for Sunday? There's a lot of scenarios. You know what I mean, we got 53 on the active roster, 17 on the practice squad.  So, you know, we can make a lot of scenarios. You've said in the past that when looking at injuries compared to around the league, you didn't think you guys were particularly out of whack. You've got 13 on IR now, Houston's got six, Colts have six, Jags have three, Chiefs have four, Packers have four. Do you still feel the same way? I mean, is that flukey coincidence or is that something you dig into and try to get that bottom on? I'm just trying to find ways to prepare a team for the Texans. You know, the guys that'll be out there for practice today, that's really my biggest goal right now. What have you guys done particularly well running the ball against Houston that Derek has had the big days he's had against them? I mean, just really trying to get on guys, cover them up and, you know, we've had, you know, that's not going to help us run the ball this week. We've got to make sure that we're handling, you know, Lopez, Collins inside, fast linebackers, multiple schemes. You know, they've pressured us. They've brought backers up on the line of scrimmage and so that's our focus is on how we can continue to do it, not what we did in the past. When you guys add a receiver, whether it's Conley or anyone else, how important is it that you see them being able to run block or at least have that potential anyway? I mean, it would certainly help. I mean, unless you're really, really good at catching passes and running by people, I just, I mean, it's a compliment.  So Brandon Cooks isn't the biggest receiver, but he's willing to try to help them, you know, run the football and try to go in there and block and door sets the same way. I mean, Collins is probably the best blocking wide receiver in the league. I mean, they run behind him like a tight end for a lot of success. You know, I think that the biggest thing just receivers is there's so much, you know, language from place to place. Trips is trips, but nobody wants to call it trips.  Everybody else has a different name for it. So it's learning where to line up, learning what to do. I'm sure the players are all saying they just called something different. What's Mule's gotten better at since you saw him during his late season trial last year? Well, I mean, I think that he looks in more control. I think that he's trying to get the ball out of his hands quicker, especially on some of those possession downs. You know, he's mobile. I think he's throwing the ball pretty much to all parts of the field.  So that was an outward breaking route, long throw. He moves the ball down the field well. You were 30 seconds by a mile at third down just a couple of years ago, your first defensive lead now. I know some of the people have changed, but that's a massive change. What do you credit for being able to turn things around? I mean, everything we have success with the credit goes to the players. They're the ones out executing that specific situation. But, you know, rankings don't mean anything different than, you know, saying we were number one in the red zone. We went 0 for two last week. So, yeah, I'm pleased to where our third down defense is, but, you know, we'll have to go down. We'll have to prepare for a whole new, you know, different scheme and motions and bunches and shifts and, you know, whatever the plan is that they have, we'll have to be ready for it. You made a point in talking about how good Houston's been in the first three quarters. What have you seen on film in the fourth quarter that's kind of caused the lapses for them? Well, they gave up some plays and some turnovers. I mean, they had to pick six the other day.   And, you know, just they weren't able to close it out. I'm like five quarters with them. So, you know, there's, there's a lot of things that come up. Take anything from Malik's performance in Buffalo. Or is that just too small sample and too late in the game to really make much? I wouldn't be too excited about anybody's performance if I can remember back to Buffalo. So your moment with Ben on Monday, there was more going on there in that week than football. Is that correct? I mean, it's just this, this is an emotional game. These guys put a lot into it. Everybody's, you know, committed. And I just, again, I can't say this enough. I'm committed to these guys that care about the team, that put the team first. I think it means something. I know that it means something. You know, and they're all, they're all out there. Everybody that's out there is far less than 100%. You've heard me say this. If we waited until everybody was 100%, you know, we wouldn't be able to field a roster. You know, I think that we're kind of appreciating sticking together and feeding off each other. And the defense doesn't complain if they have to go out there on a short field and sudden change or, you know, our offense responds.  And we've got starters and veterans up on the sidelines, you know, encouraging those guys. So all that stuff means something. I believe it. And when they do it, you know, I'm excited for them. I'm happy for them. You know, it's, it's, you know, a lot goes into everything. It's, it's an emotional game. And I appreciate what they do. Did he maybe have some personal stuff going on too? Or am I hearing incorrectly?  We all have personal things that happen that we all deal with, whether that's the head coach, the assistant coach, the trainer, the players. You know, so we're always trying to make sure that we're taking care of each and every one of them. And then I appreciate the trust that they put into us or give us, you know, with all aspects of their life. Since you've been here more times than not when you're bringing in guys to add depth and they have to come up and make a player, make a difference in a game. Is it your just being in the league for so long and knowing those players to spot to bring aboard? Because it usually hits and they usually are within the culture.    You mentioned turnovers. I know you talked a lot last year about the defense getting more takeaways. You had three last week, obviously the goal line interception, the game before that. How pleased have you been with your defense's ability so far to take the ball away? Well, I think it's the awareness is the most important thing. You know, first third down last week, the Nico starts to run around Nelson, which he's going to be too late to beat him. The ball is going to be out. He comes back and matches the hand on Andrew's interception.  You know, if the quarterback pulls the ball, Bud's going to, you know, be able to sack him. So all these things that we continue to coach. It's great to see that it carry over onto the field and then the players recognize it and hopefully it just continues to snowball. You know, Roger stab in and not swatting all these things that we try to preach.
