The Kraft Foods Company presents the Great Gilder Sleeves. It's the Great Gilder Sleeves starring Harold Perry, brought to you by the Kraft Foods Company, makers of a complete line of famous quality food products. Now let's join the Great Gilder Sleeves. It's a Saturday night in Summerfield and so we find him as usual occupying one of the best of the rickety chairs which furnish the Jolly Boys Club up above Floyd Munson's Barbershop. At the moment, Judge Hooker is the only other member present. I wonder where everybody is. I can't imagine. Seems like we're having trouble getting a quorum here lately. Maybe the club needs something. Possibly. Well, what'll we do, Judge? I don't know. Maybe we could call up somebody? Who? I don't know. Club may be getting in a rut. Maybe we ought to take on some new activity. Like, say, bowling. I don't care for bowling. All the better. It might help your liver. Wait. Well, here comes somebody. Who goes there? Well, gentlemen, how are the Jolly Boys tonight? Good evening, Pee-Vee. Pee-Vee, let me give you a hand with those coaxes. Yeah, thanks, Mr. Goodman. Stick them right here in the ice bucket. And all this would be a thirsty club without you, Pee-Vee. Last week we had to send Floyd out for drinks. Where were you? Last week? Yes. I decided to spend the evening with Mrs. Pee-Vee. Well, that's no way for a Jolly Boy to behave, Pee-Vee. Yeah, that's easy enough for a bachelor to say. You fellas don't have to explain what goes on down here. Why is that old club so important, she said? You see those men all the time anyway, she said. Hard question answered. But it's only one night a week, Pee-Vee. No wife in the world wants her husband hanging around every night. I know. Wouldn't say that. Yes, sir, you'd be surprised. Somebody else coming upstairs. We'll have a quorum yet. Oh, it's the Chief. Hi, Chief. Good evening, Commissioner. Pee-Vee. Judge. Hi, Chief. Chief, what's detainee to old man? Detain me. Doesn't seem like the old gang gets down here as promptly as they used to. Where's Floyd, for instance? He's married, too. Come on, let's get started on some poker. Fellas, not yet. Could you let the game wait just a little while? What for? Well, in case somebody dropped in. Think how it looks. Cards all over the table. Everybody smoking. Nobody's going to drop in. Come on, Judge. Let's get the chips divvied up so we can get going. Fellas, please. It was a personal favor. Hi, there, Jolly Boys. Deal me in. Yeah, deal him in. Hi, fly. Hi, Commissioner. Hi, Pee-Vee. Sorry if I've been holding you boys up, but I had to take love of you, too. Hi, Judge. Hi, Chief. Hi, Floyd. Well, what are we waiting for? Not that I like the game, but I need the money. I'm counting out the chips, Floyd. Keep your shirt on. Hold it a minute, Judge, before you deal them. What's on your mind, anyway, Chief? Well, I asked a certain man to drop in and visit us tonight. I hope nobody minds. Who is he? What about it? Well, he's a friend of mine. Stop beating around the bush. Who is he? You all know him, I guess. Don't you all know Dr. Needham? The preacher? Yes, the preacher. Nailed me after church on Sunday. Said he wanted to talk to us. Tonight? In a few minutes, I guess. He said around 8.30. Chief, you might have given us a little warning. Well, maybe I should have, but I was afraid you wouldn't come. I would have worn my blue suit. That's a cinch. And, fellas, don't you think we ought to put the cards away? Thanks, Pee-Vee, old man. Yeah, the chips, too, Horace. I suppose you're right. How about all them bottles laying there in that tub of ice? That don't look so nice to a... you know. Where can we put it? Uh, drag it over here and stick it in the closet, Chief. Okay. We ought to open a window, too, fellas. Gets the smelling like a joint up here. I'll open it for a minute.  Well, all right. Where can we dump these ashtrays? Gosh, Floyd, you might clean up the place once in a while. How'd I know a preacher was coming? You can shut the window. I'm cold. Let her air out a minute more, Peeve. Hey, I think he's turning in the alley. Huh? Yep, it's him. Well, it... it don't look great, but it looks better than it did. Sure. Ain't like he was coming to inspect a Sunday school. Floyd, do me a favor. Watch your language, will you? Don't worry about me. I've been around lots of preachers.  Well, if it isn't Dr. Needham, we were just chatting about you, weren't we, fellas? Yes, we were. Good evening, doctor. Good evening, Mr. Gouldersley. Good evening to all of you gentlemen, judge. Good evening, doctor. Chief, it's a pleasure to have you with us, doctor. Uh, let me hang your coat up. Thank you. And Mr. Peeve, the good apothecary. I'm glad to see you. Glad to be of service any time, doctor. Uh, doctor, maybe you don't know our other member here, Floyd Munce. I don't believe I... I don't think you know me, Dr. Needham. I go to Dr. Tutwaller down to... Of course. I have a very high regard for Dr. Tutwaller. And if you are one of his flock, uh... Dr. Tutwaller's a fine man, isn't he? One of the best. Have a chair, doctor? Uh, here's a good chair, doctor. Nice, comfortable one. I think I'll just sit in the straight chair. Thank you. Mortify the flesh and improve the spirit. Ha, ha, ha. Well, nice, comfortable club rooms you have here. Yes, we're quite proud of our quarters. Well, here was this vacant room over the shop. I was glad to make it available, free of charge. Is that so? Here weren't being so generous, Floyd. You couldn't make any money renting it. I'd like to know why I couldn't. No facility. Uh, it certainly is cold out tonight, isn't it, doctor? It's rather chilly, yes. Uh, how long has your club been in existence, may I ask? Oh, about two years, hasn't it, fellas? Three. I recall we organized in the fall of 43. How many members do you have? This is it. Just the five of us. Quite exclusive. And may I ask just what is the purpose of the club? Didn't you say purpose, doctor? Yes. What is the purpose of your club? Well, we don't exactly have any purpose, doctor. It's just a club. We just get together once a week and raise a leg. It's social, doctor. Isn't that it, fellas? Yes. Oh, it seems to me I've heard the club at some kind of musical interest. Oh, that too. Yeah, what kind of a musical club? See, we got a piano. Yes, it's not much of a piano. I have a Wimbley at home. Good enough for this gang. We just sing old barbershop songs, doctor. Oh, I love singing. I used to sing myself when I was a younger man. You still sing, doctor? I've heard you take a high tenor on some of those hymns on Sunday. Well, I let myself go occasionally, but when I was at Divinity School, we used to do some real singing, I can tell you. Did you ever sing down by the old mill stream? Did Floyd, huh? No, I don't remember down by the old stream. But there was another song, Love Me and the World is Mine. Do you know that? Oh, sure. I care not for the stars that shine. That's it. How to be if we tried that once, huh, doctor? If you gentlemen will permit an outsider. Don't think of yourself that way, doctor. You're one of me boys. Come on, fellas. All right. I care not for the stars that shine. I care not hope to live. Indeed, I thought that was lovely. How about another round, doc? No, thank you. As a matter of fact, I came here with a purpose. Gentlemen, I wonder if you know the work of the Summerfield Orphanage. Sure, that's where they take care of the orphans.  Mr. Monson is quite right. The orphanage takes care of between 25 and 30 orphans at the present moment. But they're desperately in need of funds. Uh-oh. So I've been going about appealing to various organizations for aid. I wonder if you kind-hearted gentlemen would be interested in adopting a lovely baby girl. Doctor. Well, perhaps I've put it too alarmingly. You wouldn't actually adopt this child. You'd simply contribute regularly to the orphanage in her behalf. And you would accept as a group the responsibility for her. Her name is Christina. She's eight months old, lovely child. Did you have any figure in mind, doctor? Uh, $10 a month. I don't want you gentlemen to give me your answer right this minute. I want you to think about it. If you care too, you may go out to the orphanage and visit little Christina. Think it over and let me have your decision. I think I know the answer you will find in your hearts. Thank you, gentlemen. I'll get your coat, doctor. Good night, all. Good night, doctor. I told you he was a nice fellow. He's as nice a preacher as I know. Well, sure he's a nice fellow. Gee, if this club has $10 a month to throw around, I don't think we ought to blow it on a baby or I'd have put it in a pool table. Floyd, haven't you got any heart? Certainly I got a heart. It's only $2 a month apiece. I ain't the money, it's the principal. Well, I'm in favor of the doctor's proposition. What do you say, Pee-Vee? Mrs. Pee-Vee always wanted a girl. I'm for it. Well, Floyd, are you going to be a spoil sport? Who's a spoil sport, you big...  Let's be jolly boys. What a doctor need him think if he could hear us calling each other names. I didn't call anybody names. Let's think about what the doctor said, fellas. We shouldn't rush into this. We should look in our hearts.  Well, come on, Floyd, that's fair enough. Look at her and then we'll decide. Well, all right, but now for the love of Pete, can we play poker for the rest of the evening? Deal the cards, horse, that the chips fall where they may. You know, it's a real pleasure to tell you that famous craft mayonnaise is once again available. Yes, although miracle web salad dressing and other craft products you've been waiting for continues to be scarce because of the sugar shortage, craft, kitchen, fresh mayonnaise is back. Fine salad oil is becoming more plentiful and craft can make a fair supply of the truly superior mayonnaise most of you remember. Superior because it's made from only choice ingredients. Fine salad oil, selected eggs, fragrant vinegar and spices, and as a final touch, genuine, fresh lemon juice. No wonder craft mayonnaise has such distinctive, delicate flavor. Such a rich, homemade goodness. It's easy to see why the most discriminating hostesses choose this particular mayonnaise for flavor and for surpassing smoothness. A special beater patented by craft gives it a velvety texture you could never accomplish in your own kitchen. Yes, you'll be taking bows when you make salads from famous craft, kitchen, fresh mayonnaise. Now available in reasonable quantity. Now let's get back to the great Gildersleeve. Here he comes, Marge. All right, birdie, he's down. Good morning, children. Why, Anki, you're vest. Don't tell me you're going to church with us. Of course, I always go to church on Sundays. Well, I always try. I don't always make it, perhaps. Leroy, how many times have I told you if you must read the funny papers? I'm going to pick them up, don't worry. Uh-huh. I'll come and sit down. Did you have a good time at the club last night, Anki? We had a very lovely meeting, yes. Leroy, if you're trying to crawl into that glass, it can't be done. I'm just trying to get all the juice. Well, sip it politely. No back-summer salts. Remember, this is Sunday. Okay. Yeah, we had a very nice meeting last night, children. Dr. Needham was there. Dr. Needham? At the Jolly Boys? What's so strange about that? What do you think goes on down there? What does go on down there, Runk? Never mind. It's for grown-ups. What was Dr. Needham doing there? Is that why you're going to church? Well, as a matter of fact, it's something that might interest you, children. How would you like to have a baby to take care of? A baby? Anki, do you mean it? Oh, that'd be wonderful. Yeah, no, wait a minute. Did you hear that, Leroy, a baby? I'd rather have a dog. There's lots more things for the baby. Feed him, and dress him, and bathe him, and play with him. Wait a minute. You can't teach him tricks. You can't sew. Dogs are smarter. They are not. You were a baby once. You mean to say you're not smarter than a dog? Well, it depends. Would it be a boy baby or a girl baby? And where are we going to get it? I'm coming to that if you'll just listen to me. Oh, good morning, Birdie. Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Gillslee. It's that darned old, excuse me. It's that waffle iron. It went and stuck again. Yeah, that's all right, Birdie. Birdie, we're going to have a bath. Yeah. Don't worry. There isn't going to make any work for you, Birdie. But we're not going to have the baby here. What? I love him. Let me explain, will you? Okay. This was an idea of Dr. Needham's. He thought it would be nice if different organizations around this town would each undertake to provide for some child out at the children's home. They'll sort of sponsor it and be a godfather to it and pay for its upkeep next year. Oh, I think that's real nice. Yeah, so do I. You going to do it then? Well, we're going to go out there to the home this afternoon and look over the proposition. As a matter of fact, one of our members is holding out. Who? Never mind.  That's not the way that clubs are run, Leroy. Pickies move me out of here? Well, the Jolly Boys try to be more democratic. Besides, we can't throw him out. He owns the club room. Mr. Gillsleeve, how old is this baby you're talking about? Well, I believe about eight months, Birdie. She's a little girl. Oh, I was thinking maybe I could knit her a sweater or some booties or something. Well, I think that would be lovely. I thought you children might like to contribute a little something, too, out of your allowances. Is it Christmas gesture? 25 cents a month, say? I'd love to. Would we own part of it? The baby, I mean? Well, I'd say you'd have an interest in her. Certainly. I'll give half a buck. So will I. Well, that's very generous, children. I'm glad to see you respond that way. Is she cute, Anki? Well, I haven't seen her myself yet. All babies are cute. Has she got a name? Let's see. Her name is Christina. Oh. Couldn't we change it? Huh? Why, Christina's a beautiful name. I love it. It's crazy. I never heard it before. Oh, well, what do you know? Listen, I'm paying half up the name. Children, children. Christina's the name she was born with, my boy. You get used to it. Well, I suppose we could call her Chrissy. Say, when can we go out and see her, Anki? See her? Well, uh... Hey, you don't know what to do. I'm going to make up a scrapbook. Kids are nuts about scrapbooks. Huh? When can we go out and see her, Anki? Why not this afternoon? Yeah, this afternoon. Well, I'm afraid that wouldn't be a very good idea. Oh, why not? You see, this is a club affair. And besides, so many people all at once might scare the baby. We wouldn't scare her as much as you will. You bet. And the chief of police. How would you like to see him leaning over your crib? Yes. Tell you what I'll do, children. I can't let you go this time. But when I get back, I'll tell you all about her. How's that? I told you, Marge, a dog is better.  Peevie? Chief? I don't know that we ought to smoke in here, commissioner. Why not? If we're careful, we're not going to set the home on fire. What isn't that? I don't think it'd be a good example for the children. There aren't any children around. They're all outside playing. Well, just the same, it wouldn't look good. Chief is right, guilty. All right. I won't smoke myself then. There's an ashtray there, and the superintendent must smoke. Well... Thanks, Mr. Floyd. Yeah, all right. Hi, agents. Chief? Well, we didn't think you were going to make it, Floyd. Gave you my word, didn't I? Just the same, I almost didn't. You should have seen me trying to convince Lovie I was coming out here this afternoon to see a baby. Asked me how old was the baby? Was she a blonde or a brunette? Still don't think she believes I'm out here. I don't believe it myself. Well, what do we do now? Just sit down and wait, I guess, Floyd. And Christina's asleep. Who? The baby. Oh. Well, what do we do? Just sit here till she wakes up? Till the nurse comes for us. Oh, well. I feel kind of foolish. What are we doing here anyway? Are we nuts or something? You guys got me into this. Maybe it's like Dr. Needham said in his sermon today, Floyd. Children bring out the best in people. Is it right in there, Floyd? Is it right in it? Well, don't look at me.  Oh, look, now don't get me wrong. I got nothing against kids. I'm for kids. But when I come to a job... Well, this is your chance to prove it. Now, all come missionaries.  Gentlemen, the baby's asleep. He's down in the nursery. She can't hear us. Commissioner, I don't think we have to worry. Now, Floyd may talk tough, but after all he came here this afternoon and I think we can take that to mean... Oh, no you don't, Chief. I said I'd come here and I came, but that's all. I ain't joining no baby syndicate. Like I said before, if you want to have a club, we'll have a little fun once in a while. I'd quite... If you gentlemen would like to come this way. Oh, thank you. Go ahead, Chief. After you, Commissioner. Judge? Thanks, Gelde. Come on, Floyd. Pee-vee. Just follow me, please. Oh, nurse, say I... Yes, sir? I brought along a little something for the baby. Candy reindeer. I don't think it had hurt her. Well, that's very nice of you, but I really don't think she ought to have it. No? Well, you know best, of course. That's why I ask. You'd better frisk the rest of this candy nurse. I bet they're loaded with stuff. I'd be glad to keep the reindeer if you like and give it to her when she's older. Would you? Thanks. Right through here, please. I'll just go ahead, if you don't mind, and see if she's still awake. All right, miss. Hee-hee-hee-hee. We'll wait outside for us. Yes, the first time I was ever in an orphanage, it all looks a bad. That nurse still looks a baddie there. Nice motherly time. Well, no, I don't know. She's not so motherly. It's the uniform. It's all right. You can come in.  Quiet now. No rumpus. Some gentlemen to see you, Christina. Look at that. Well, ready to know. Hee-hee-hee-hee. Come here, Frank.  She's got your double chin. Hee-hee-hee-hee. Cute, isn't she? Who gave her the rattle? Oh, that's standard equipment. Uh, go ahead. Play with your rattle, Christina. Play with your rattle. Doesn't want to play with her rattle, I guess. Just lies there staring at everybody. Well, what do you make of all this, Christina? What do you make of all this? She said, I just wish all these big bad men would go away and leave me alone. Hello there, Christina. Can you say hello? Hmm. Can you? Oh, for heaven's sake. Of course not, you old goat. She's only eight months old. Well, no harm in asking. Hey, look. Look. She moved. Hey, that's pretty good. For a kid only eight months old. She's a smart girl, Floyd. All right, Christina? Whee-chee, whee-chee, whee-chee, whee-chee, whee-chee.  She's going to cry. Oh, dear me. You wouldn't cry, would you, Christina?  Here it comes. Gosh, I didn't mean to scare her. Let me try. Look, see the pretty rattle? She's not interested in the rattle, Floyd. Hey, she smiled. That wasn't a smile, Floyd. That was gas. Babies do that when they have a bubble. It was so a smile, wasn't it, nurse? I'd call it a smile. Yeah, what'd I tell you? Tell me, I don't know about babies. There she goes again. I think the kid likes me. Oh, I wouldn't touch her. Floyd. Look at that little finger. Look at that. Well, I'll be darned. She won't let go of it, either. Little son of a gun. Grab hold of my finger.  Pretty lucky. The little son of a gun. Say, miss, you don't suppose I could hold her for a minute? Nah, better not. Before we go home, let's settle this, fellas. What do you think? Listen, that's a smart kid, you know it? That's one of the smartest kids I ever saw for her age. She ain't like most babies just lie there. She's got personality, you know what I mean? She's smart, too. Sure. Gentlemen, it's moved and seconded. But the heck, we don't have to be so darned formal about this. You all know the motion? All in favor? Aye. Opposed? Motion carried. Baby adopted.  Many an expert homemaker is wearing a big smile these days. Now that she can serve the family super special salads made with the famous mayonnaise which is once again available. Yes, it's really true. Kraft kitchen fresh mayonnaise is back and in reasonable quantity. Kraft mayonnaise, you know, is a truly superior mayonnaise made from only choice ingredients. Fine salad oil, selected eggs, fragrant vinegar, and spices. And as a final touch of inspiration, fresh lemon juice is added. With its distinctive homemade goodness, its rich, delicate flavor, Kraft mayonnaise glorifies any and every salad. Its texture, too, is something to be proud of. A special beater patented by Kraft gives Kraft mayonnaise a velvet smoothness almost impossible to accomplish in your own kitchen. In fact, it's mayonnaise nothing short of perfection. Kraft kitchen fresh mayonnaise. I wonder where everybody is. I can't imagine. This is just as bad as last week. Wait. Here comes somebody. That's you, chief. Hi, fellas. Floyd. You're late, Floyd. We're all the others. Maybe Fondy's staying home tonight with the wife. How about the chief? Him, too. He's refereeing a kid basketball game down to the Y. And he's going straight home. I gotta be going myself. What? Yeah, I gotta love you waiting for me down in the car. Well, I guess I've got... Floyd, wait a minute. Yeah, stick around. Cam, sorry. Lovey and I want the movies. Give her a break for a change. Good night. Good night, Floyd. Well, what'll we do, Judge? I don't know. Maybe we should call up somebody. Who? I don't know. You know something? That baby could ruin this club. Good night, folks. Great Gelder slave is played by Harold Perry. It is written by John Whedon and Sam Moore. The music is by Jack Meakin.

3 Key Points To Consider When Teaching English To Young Learners Teaching English to young learners is quite different from teaching English to adults in many ways. One of the differences is that young learners do not learn a language in a conscious process, mostly they acquire the language. For young learners, it can be said that it is easier for them to acquire and learn English as long as they are exposed to the language. Since learning languages differs from age to age, teaching styles and strategies also change accordingly. As English teachers, we have different approaches, methods, techniques, and tools which gravitate towards different needs and levels of young learners. So, as English teachers, we should address those needs. 1. Teaching Methodologies. First of all, to teach a child, we should adopt an approach so that we can design our syllabus and arrange our lessons going forward. In my opinion, the communicative approach is more suitable for children than other approaches. We should use English as much as we can in the classroom and help them acquire the language by using drills and repetitions. Also, since they are children and they are kinesthetic learners, we should also include TPR, total physical response, in our lessons and we should choose short activities for them since their attention spans are short. Moreover, while teaching the language and speaking, we should consider the context. They should be familiar with the context from their everyday lives to help them make connections and we should always use the language in a meaningful context. 2. Classroom Environment. Another thing to consider while teaching young learners is setting the learning environment for the students. By that, it is implied both the physical environment and the classroom atmosphere. The physical environment should be flexible and easy to change according to children's needs and their personality, hyperactive, combat etc. As teachers, we should observe our students and place them in the right situations in the class and with the right groups of students where they can express themselves and be comfortable. Personally, I prefer the semi-circular chair arrangement since it is more suitable for the communicative class. Also, this arrangement helps students to move around easily and since they are young learners they often cannot sit on their chair for long periods of time. Moreover, the classroom environment should be lively, energetic and welcoming for the students. We should always make our students feel comfortable in the class. 3. Teaching Materials. Lastly, it is important to mention the subject of appropriate materials for young learners. Usually, there are two types of materials, authentic and non-authentic. We can use both of these according to our learners' needs. Personally, I don't stick to one type of material. I arrange it according to the needs and level of the class and the specific topic. There are certainly situations where we should use non-authentic materials which are designed for the exact needs of the learners. Often these are songs and chants. We can use these types of non-authentic materials to help students memorize vocabularies and patterns. According to my experience, kids learn by song faster as they memorize it automatically and it helps with their pronunciation. Another useful teaching method is using games. Since they are young learners and full of energy we can easily design simple games to help their learning. For instance, we can play a hopscotch game with fruit flashcards where the students jump and say the name of the fruits on the cards. They already know the game and they are also practicing the vocabularies. To continue, we can add to our teachings by using arts and crafts. We can link fun drawing, coloring, cutting, sticking or painting activities to our lessons. For example, we can simply give them a paper plate and have them draw foods and then talk about the foods on their plate. To sum up, there are a variety of things we should consider while teaching young learners and many situations we can be prepared for. However, you will also find that there are some things that we can only learn by experience. Are you ready to start teaching English to young learners?

What's up everyone takedown here welcome back to another video today I'm gonna be showing you how to recover data from a dead laptop. Let's get right into this Okay, so to recover data from a dead laptop. It is pretty simple You only need a few things But the first thing I want to mention is I would recommend using a laptop that has windows 10 to do this Because whenever I tried to connect the hard drive to a laptop that had windows 8 and also one that had 8.1 It wasn't even registering that I had it connected once I did it with my windows 10 It worked right away, and it was really simple to do So if you're going to try the method that I'm going to be showing you guys in this video Which is really easy to do I'd recommend using a laptop that has windows 10 So not only are you gonna need a laptop that has windows 10? But you're also going to need the hard drive out of the dead laptop So it's really easy to take out the hard drive out of a laptop. So in this video I'm not going to show you how to do it because not only are every laptop difference, but it's so easy to do I did it in a previous video on a previous how-to video So I'll try to remember to leave that links down below But you're gonna need the hard drive out of the dead laptop And the last thing that you need is an adapter to connect the hard drive to the working laptop via USB Now this one I got off of Amazon for $20. I did see some that were cheaper But the best part about this one is there is two lights to tell you if your hard drive is working There is a red solid light which should stay solid as long as it's connected And there is a blue light that should be blinking if it's working So I definitely recommend getting one that has the indicator lights It just makes it easier if the hard drive you are trying to use is Faulty and it's not working properly as soon as you connect it It will tell you right away, which is really awesome. Plus, I did see other ones online That's not only have this piece But there is also a power cord that connects the hard drive to a standard outlets in my opinion I would avoid those because they're just extra stuff that you just don't need So once you have the laptop turned on all you're gonna want to do is just stay on the desktop And then you're gonna take your hard drive and your adapter and you're gonna connect it and plug it into the laptop So I'll just turn it around and I'll show you guys what I mean, okay? So you have your hard drive and you have your adapter So you're gonna plug the hard drive into the adapter Make sure it lines up and then you're gonna connect this to the computer via the USB Now if it is working properly As you can see the red light is solid The blue lights is blinking and you can actually hear the fan running Okay, so now I'm gonna flip it over and as you can see I am on the desktop It's way easier for me just to record at the screen of the laptop rather than just filming it with my phone Reason for that is because it's easier for you guys to see exactly what I am clicking along the way So I'm just gonna connect the hard drive back to the laptop because it should come up and pop up on my screen Almost instantly I can hear it running the lights are on so in a couple seconds. It should come up on the screen as It just did so if for you it doesn't pop up right away and doesn't pop up on its own There's nothing to worry about yet You're going to want to if you're still on the desktop screen. Nothing has happened Just open up your files and make sure there is the eDrive either here or On the side sometimes you manually have to go in to open it up Sometimes it doesn't automatically pop up like it just did on screen for me So I'm gonna go back into it here So this is where you should be now once you open up the eDrive and the hard drive should be coming up as the eDrive I don't know if I just mentioned that a minute ago or not So you're gonna want to go and click users That's where all of your personal data anything that you saved on your laptop is going to be stored Everything else that is on the eDrive is basically how it is formatted to whatever laptop you had So now you're gonna want to go and it should be the first one here Whatever your dead laptop was names It should come up right here and that's what you're gonna want to click now before I click it I have already given myself permission to be able to view and basically take off anything that is on this hard drive So whenever you click the name the first one here, whatever your laptop is names It might prompt you saying you do not have permission to view this stuff Nothing to worry about you're just gonna want to back out of that prompts and what you're going to do is right click on the Whatever one you're clicking whatever is the name of the folder that you're gonna be clicking you're gonna right click You're gonna go down to properties You're gonna go under security And you're gonna click down here where it says advanced Now in here as you can see it says owner and It will say system so a system means is it is Programmed to only be used with the system aka the laptop that it was pulled out of you're gonna want to go and change that So right here where it's blue you're gonna want to hit change and This is what should come up for you So here you're gonna go and you're gonna put whatever the laptop the working laptop that you're using You're gonna want to put its name in so my laptop. I just named it takedown Now before you hit okay, just go over and hit check names If you typed it in correctly, whatever your laptop name is it should come up kind of like this and Change the name You're gonna want to hit okay And as you can see up here, it is changed So you're gonna go down to here and you're gonna say okay You're gonna back out and then you're gonna click into it Now if whenever you go to click into it as you can see for me Since I already changed the permissions before It's already remembered that I already had those settings in effect But for you it might come up with the same prompts You're just going to click whatever it says on that prompts And it's just gonna basically check to make sure you have those permissions Basically anything that you changed whenever you change the name like you just seen me do on screen and click okay It's basically just going to apply those changes So once it's done loading it should open up right away If it doesn't just go back into the screen like I did so I'll actually do it on screen for you guys here right click properties back under security back under advanced and See what it says their owner if it says system like it did prior to it prior to you making changes Go and try it again and hit okay, and maybe it will work If not once you make the changes you can come down here and hit apply for me It's worked every time for just hitting okay So once you have access to the hard drive You can go in and start transferring anything that you want to recover over onto your laptop Or if you have a flash drive plug it into that working laptop and you can just basically drag and click and put everything into The flash drive so then you can go and transfer it onto a new laptop if you had to purchase one or whatever you want to do with your information So for me the most important stuff that I always save on my laptop is either under documents Downloads music pictures or videos now prior to me making this video I already factory reset this laptop so everything was wiped off However, I wanted to show you guys that if you get this far into it And you start clicking things anything that was saved on your laptop should be shown here so I just went on Google and I went and Just saved a couple pictures onto this hard drive just to show you guys that it should pop up So for example if you have pictures saved on your hard drive that was on the dead laptop if you click pictures Anything that was saved under pictures should up here. So these are the three pictures. I just went and Basically saved them just for the purpose of showing you guys that's anything you have saved You just click into those folders and it should pop up So that is about it. Like I said, all you're gonna want to do is click and drag Let's say you want to save these you're gonna go and you're gonna save them wherever you want Whether it's a flash drive or just save them on the working laptop and then deal with them later You can go and do that so that is honestly it that is how to recover your saved files From a dead laptop. It's really easy to do You just have to remember pull out the dead laptop get an adapter use a windows 10 Laptop and then just go through the steps like I showed you on a screen if you run into problems like I showed you guys since I Already went and I already changed the permission settings for me to get this to work prior to making the video My laptop already remembered the settings that I changed So you're just gonna have to go in and you're gonna have to right-click and go through the steps since I already had it done I tried my best to show you step-by-step how to do it and Hopefully you're able to go and recover any of your data This hard drive originally whenever I went to do this on my own Before making this video before I wiped it out entirely had 3500 files on this So anything that would have been in your recycling bin does get stored on your hard drive, believe it or not So it was really funny whenever I went and seen that much stuff and having to go and scroll through and to Basically find everything that was worth saving on this but once you hit factory resets It wipes this out entirely anything you had saved is gone forever So I hope this has helped you guys realize just how easy it is to recover the data off of a dead laptop on Your own all you need to do is get this adapter and make sure you use windows 10 Now you can go and of course give it to somebody or bring it to Best Buy or something like that And get them to do it, but they're gonna charge a lot of money It's easier just to do it yourself, and it honestly does not take too long. Hope you guys enjoyed this video I hope it has helped. I'll see you guys in the next one. Please take care. Peace


Hey, Psych2Goers, welcome back to another video. Firstly, we would like to thank you all for the support that you've given us. Psych2Go's mission is to make psychology and mental health more accessible to everyone, and you help us do that, so thank you. Now, back to the video. Have you ever felt alone? Even though you were with people? Have you still felt somehow disengaged or removed from it all? It may be because you're lonely. While loneliness may not seem that important, over time, it can have adverse effects on your mental and physical health. According to Crystal Rapal from Healthline, chronic loneliness can cause conditions such as depression, poor sleep, high cholesterol, and more. Don't worry, though. We just want to emphasize that if loneliness goes unchecked, it can impact you in more ways than one. With that said, here are seven reasons why you may feel alone. Number one, burnout. Do you spend most of your time at work? Burnout can result from consistently overworking yourself, and can lead to feelings of exhaustion and loneliness. As tempting as it is to work yourself as hard as you can, it's important to prioritize time for resting, relaxing, and spending time with loved ones. After all, having a good balance between work and rest can go a long way for your mental and physical well-being. Number two, you don't connect with your friends. Do you feel like you don't fit in your friend group? You develop a strong sense of community, not when you're simply around others, but when you feel connected to them on an emotional level. So, despite being physically surrounded by your friends, you may still feel like you are alone. According to licensed professional counselor Rob Dansman from Psychology Today, this type of loneliness impacts college students the most. It may be because college is not only a time for academic stress, but also social stress. Number three, major life changes. Have you gone through some major life changes? Perhaps you just moved to a different country, are grieving after the loss of someone close to you, or have gone through an intense breakup with a loved one. These big changes can cause you to feel emotionally distanced from those around you. It's normal to look to others when trying to navigate new experiences, so when you don't see any of them struggling with the same things as you are, you may end up feeling lonely and isolated. Number four, depression. Did you know that loneliness and depression go hand in hand? Though loneliness is often reported as a cause of depression, it could also be a symptom of it. When someone is depressed, they are more likely to stay inside and isolate themselves to cope with the heaviness in their mind and body. Depression can be extremely draining, so understandably, spending excessive time alone may be tempting. However, remember that spending too much time alone is not healthy and could negatively impact your mental health. Number five, social phobias. Do you have any social phobias? Maybe you panic when it comes to public speaking or feel alarmed when you're out in crowds. Whatever it is, the intense anxiety you feel may negatively impact your ability to enjoy other people's company. For example, social anxiety, which is the experience of intense fear when out in social situations, may cause you to develop a tendency to emotionally and physically isolate yourself from others, which can ultimately lead to a deep and constant feeling of loneliness. Number six, childhood trauma. Were you neglected as a child? Childhood trauma, where you may have been deprived of proper care, attention, and affection, can not only make you feel physically and emotionally neglected, but it can also lead to other mental conditions, such as depression or anxiety disorders. The trauma you experience as a child may slowly manifest itself into intense feelings of loneliness. To learn more about the effects of childhood trauma in particular, you can check out some of our other videos on that too. And number seven, screen time. Be honest, how much time do you spend on social media? According to a 2018 study at the University of Pennsylvania, spending too much time on social media may lead to feelings of loneliness, due to a growing fear of missing out. Whether it's Instagram or Twitter, we tend to compare our lives to what other people post on their accounts. This can lead to feeling as though your life isn't as exciting as it could be, or that you don't hang out enough with your friends. But remember that social media is full of distortions. Just as you pick and choose the way you want to represent your life, others do the same. We hope this video helped you understand some of the possible causes of loneliness.

If you recall, this year's Christmas design was a snap apart and build your own gingerbread house model. I designed it so that you can stuff it in an envelope and give it as a gift. And a lucky person got to assemble it. This led me to explore flat pack designs a little more and I decided to try and make a model that can be folded into place. And this is what I've been working on. It's a brick cottage that I modeled with folding hinges that allow you to build it simply by folding it into place. There are two techniques I wanted to share with this video. One, how I approach the hinges that allow the walls to fold into place. And two, how I apply the brick texture. Now I'm going to try a different approach with this video. Instead of doing a step-by-step Fusion 360 tutorial, I'm going to do more of a high level approach showing you the basic design idea. And if there's anything you want me to dive deeper into, simply leave it in the comments and I'll make a more detailed video on questions I get the most. Before I dive in, let me first talk about why. Why go with a flat pack design? Well, besides me just wanting to explore this method of construction, there are actually some advantages as to why you'd want to design a model this way for 3D printing. And it started with me posting this picture on Instagram asking which one people prefer. These are both the same Fusion 360 model. Can you tell the difference? Right, they're printed in different orientations. The one on the left was printed upright and the one on the right was printed flat along the print bed. So I ran an Instagram poll and asked which one was preferred and the one on the right was the winner as most liked the texture it created versus the one on the left which someone described as having a basket-weaved look. In this case, it was the texture of the bricks on the right that won. Okay, so that's one advantage printing miles flat can give you the texture you want. Also think of like a textured build plate or a mirrored glass for a build plate and how completely different finishes you're going to get with these. Let's look at a couple more advantages of printing flat. Perfect circles. If you've tried to print holes vertically, you know what I'm talking about. It just doesn't work. Try these two prints and you'll quickly see which one was printed vertically versus the one that was printed like flat on the build plate. And finally, the last reason I'll mention is color changes. Depending on your model, you may want to print in multiple colors and if you only have one extruder, you'll have to rely on swapping filaments at designated layer heights. In order to print this model so that the trim work is a different color than the bricks, I had to orient it flat along the print bed. Alright, let's jump into Fusion 360 and I'll show you the approach I took to get the brick texture as well as the hinge mechanism. Alright, here's my design. And so you're seeing here the brick pattern that I have and you can see the hinges here where I made it so that these can fold into place. And I'll talk about those two techniques there in a minute. But first, I just want to focus on the design, show you how I approach this. So if you look under my browser here, you'll see that I designed these with components. So I organize it into separate components here. I've got the foundation and here's the roof. And you see here, the roof also has a similar hinge mechanism here where this will be folded to match the walls here. And the foundation does not have any hinge here. Once the walls are folded, they will snap right into these grooves here. And once that gets put in place and then the roof gets put on top, it actually will lock the walls together. So that's the idea there.  And let's first talk about the sort of hinge mechanism I have going on here. I played around with some different techniques and what I found to work was actually pretty straightforward and quite simple. If you see here, all this is, is a chamfer. But there's a little bit more to it than that. So let me activate here the walls component. And then I'm going to take the timeline. You see it got narrow just to reflect the features for the wall. But I'm going to bring that down to the beginning here. Let's just look at that first sketch there. And we can see here that I simply sketch just the front and the side profile of the building. And basically I'm just going to take these two sections and repeat them. So let's, let's go on and see after that I extrude this up. And I extrude that two millimeters because next, let's see, let me move a few steps here. I've got a couple of construction planes there. And then here's the important part, the chamfer. So I applied the chamfer right here. And the important thing with this chamfer here, like I said, this is two millimeters thick. You can see that there. But when I did the chamfer, I only did that as a 1.6 millimeter chamfer. And what that did, it left me with a 0.4 millimeter edge here. That's just this straight flat edge. So you can see there if I select that, that's 0.4. And that's really what allows the hinge here because now I've got two layers of filament. Since I'm printing this at a 0.2 millimeter layer height, I've got two layers of just solid layers that work as a really good just living hinge. And I actually tested this quite a bit, just kind of folding it back and forth to see how strong this is. And it actually works really well. It takes a while before you'll actually break it. And since this is only being folded once to put it together, it's really stronger than it really needs to be. So it worked really well for the hinge, really is what I'm trying to say. All right, so now I just did the same thing with the other profile, created it, and then added a chamfer there as well. And you can see here if I just inspect this base here to this edge, that's going to give me 0.4 millimeters. OK, that's the basic idea behind the hinge there. Not really complicated, but took quite a bit of testing to get there. So I'll save you all that trouble. OK, we'll bring that timeline forward. And now let's talk about the brick pattern here and how I approach that. This is actually a really neat technique here. If I open up my data panel, you'll see I have another design here called Brick Wall Parametric. So I'm going to already have that open. Actually, I'm just going to open it here. So basically, I created here what would be the grout lines of the brick texture. And the way I approach that, if I jump into this design, you'll see that I just created three rectangles here, positioned them as how I want them to be patterned and give them dimensions. And then when I did an extrusion here, the important thing here is I did a thin extrude. And that allowed me to just extrude the outline and not the profile. So you can see there here are my settings. I did a center thin extrude. And after that, I came in with a rectangular pattern. And with the rectangular pattern, I just tell you how many I wanted to make. And it's going to go ahead and create that pattern for me. Now, you can see here that this is completely parametric. If you look at my values here, they're all equations, basically, that are referenced in my user parameters. And so let me go into that. And I'll show you how that works. I'll open up my user parameters here. And you can see I've got the top two parameters are for height and width. So let's say let's go with a short wall, so let's do a width of, let's say 80. I could just go ahead and enter that right here. And then a wall height of 10. So let me go ahead and type that in. And then watch my model here. Go ahead and click OK. And you can see that it automatically updates. Now, one thing you'll notice, I got a little warning here and I got a bunch of bodies here instead of just one single body. So you will have to go back to this combined feature after you make a change. And this is only if you're adding body. So if you're going from a smaller number to a bigger number, you'll just have to remake that selection. So I'll X these out, select the first body, select the second body, and then the last body, holding shift there. And then I'll click OK. And operation is a join. And then that'll go ahead and combine them all back into one. Now, when you go the other way around, let's say we go smaller. So let's say we have this in size from 80 to 40. You'll see that the wall gets now narrower. And I still have one body. So it doesn't, of course, it's not going to add any more bodies. However, you'll still get a warning here. And in that case, all you have to do is just open up that combined feature and just click OK. And it'll recalculate it. And it'll get rid of that warning. So OK, that's the way I approach this design. Now, since I have that design here as a separate model, what I did is I brought that in here as a component. So let me show you how I did that. I went into my walls component there. And you can see there I have this component within there called brick wall parameter. And to do that, basically, I just right-click on the separate design and said Insert into Current Design. So that brought that in. And then what I did was I, let me bring that up here, I moved it into place, so aligned it so that it aligned to the top of my wall there. I left a little portion on the bottom here that's going to slide into the foundation. But then, let's see, if we go into this combined feature here, you'll see that I basically did a Boolean operation. I took that wall pattern, the brick wall pattern, and cut that away from my solid wall here. And you can see how that looks there. Operation is cut. And that's what left me with the brick pattern. And that's basically how that worked. And the neat thing here is I now have this pattern here. So let's untaggle this. I have this brick wall pattern. It's its own design. So whenever I wanted to bring it into a different design, I could just go back in there. And I can say, OK, I'm using it maybe for a different building. Maybe I just want a small section of the wall. I can come into my user parameters, give it whatever wall height or width that I want, click OK. I just need to click on Save. And once I click on Save, it'll save this design. And if I want to push that through to my new design where I linked it, you'll see you'll get this yellow flag here. It tells you the component that you're referencing is out of date. You just click on it. And then it'll be the exact same wall size here that you created. And it'll bring that into this design. So it really becomes sort of this shelved component that you can bring in to your other designs. And you only have to create it once. And since you're creating it parametrically, it's really quick to just change the size of it. And then you can use it in all other different designs. So I really like that approach here. I like the fact that I can reuse it and that I'm easily able to change it. So yeah, those were the two main things I wanted to show with this video. Happy to dive deeper into any one of those or any other questions you have here that you want me to explain a little more. I can come in with a more in-depth tutorial, sort of my regular step-by-step approaches that I do. Just let me know in the comments what it is you want me to dive deeper into. One last thing I'll point out, you can see here these are all different heights. And that's to allow the color changes. So I printed this first section here. So that would be this 1.6 millimeters to just below where the bricks start. That was gray because I wanted the gray sort of grout line to show. And then the bricks, you'll notice, those are 0.4 millimeters. And I had a brick, sort of this reddish brick color that I printed that. And then the window trim here, those are also 0.4 millimeters, while the distance between the top of the bricks and those are 0.4. And so that gave me another elevation change there that I could go ahead and just printed these in white. So those gave me the three colors that I wanted here and allowed me to make those color changes. Yeah, so I think that's mainly what I wanted to cover here. Again, any questions, let me know. And I'm going to throw this model, the actual Fusion 360 model. So it'll come with actually both of these designs, the brick cottage and the parametric wall there. So if you want to actually jump in, play around with those, maybe make your own tweaks, you can do that. So if you're interested in getting that or interested in supporting my channel, check out my link to my Patreon page and you'll have those available, as well as access to all my other Fusion 360 files that I've uploaded. All right, guys, I'm going to end it here. And of course, if you're looking to learn how to use Fusion 360 to create your own models, make sure to check out my quick start course. I have a link below. And also I have a link to my free Fusion 360 constraint cheat sheet, which you'll find very valuable. Have a great week and I'll see you in a few.


Would you rather pay $650 or $66 for a smart phone? Simple with the Appalachian Advantage Plan. Pay less upfront and then just a few dollars more every month. Better service, bigger savings. That's today's Appalachian Wireless. This week we have spent a lot of time celebrating a life that has been saved, but it is also National Police Week and local state troopers are pausing to remember the troopers they have lost. So we're here to honor that sacrifice that trooper Jonathan Kyle Leonard made on that faithful night. Present on the order. On. We come out to each fallen officer's gravesite and physically place a memorial at Wreath Down which allows the family to come out and be a part of it as well as some of the guys and girls who work at Post that may not have known personally the trooper there. They get to learn a little bit about them, their history, what happened. After Jonathan's death, it revived a completely new experience for his mother Karen Leonard and she is an integral part of this post. This is another part of just showing appreciation to what she does for us. KSP always did an angel tree and we were wrapping his gifts for that angel tree and he told me that he would be back shortly to pick it up. Bobby Johnson and Petrie came to our door and you knew by the look on their face. He wanted to be a trooper when he was in school and his dad and I tried to talk him out of it because of the dangers and stuff but he wouldn't have it any other way so after he got his education, college education then we had to let him go. He loved it and you miss Jonathan terribly. We all do, but I would have never changed his mind because that's what he was.


بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والصلاة والصلاة وعلى أشرف الأنبياء وأعز المرسلين حبيبي إله العالمين أب القاسم المصطفى محمد وعلى آل بيته الطيبين الطاهرين المنتجبين واللعن الدائم وعلى أعضائهم أجمعين من الآن إلى غيام يوم الدين أمين رب العالمين في نام الله أفضل من المرسف كل مرسفة سيكون لهم أفضل ومرسلين نحن في نامه نحن نقوم بسيطة ومرسلين على محمد ونقوم بسيطة في نهاية المرسفات المرسفة على الأنبياء المحمد ومحمد أمين رب العالمين my dear brothers and sisters السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته I begin by sending my peace and my blessings upon you and congratulate you on the arrival of month of Allah the month of Ramadan the month of forgiveness the month of mercy the month of prayer the month of repentance and may Allah SWT as mercy befall those who are not able to join us during these sacred nights my dear brothers and sisters thank you for joining me as we discuss insha'Allah during the next nights or the next couple of weeks insha'Allah the sermon of Rasool Allah وعليه وآله what she delivered in the final days of Sha'ban that marks the beginning marking the beginning of the month of Ramadan this sermon my dear brothers and sisters and I chose this because this sermon of Rasool Allah this khotba of Rasool Allah encompasses several and several merits of this sacred month I found it that it is very important that we focus on the merits and then focus in more detail on the specific lines and the specific words uttered by the Masjid of Allah and the main reason by the way somebody may ask me what is the reason behind this commentary behind this brief commentary I consider it a brief commentary all in all I won't be able to completely and holistically explain and go over the khotba of Rasool Allah understanding the words of Rasool Allah is not something that I am capable of even beginning to fathom and understand I am merely able to bring you insha'Allah me and myself myself first and foremost and you closer to the truth insha'Allah and the reason again the reason behind me doing this stems from a hadith of Imam Al-Sadiq you see medievalism sisters Imam Al-Sadiq من a hadith that has been narrated it is very well known he mentions and he says التدبر في حديث أفضل من عبادة ألف سنة تدبر by تدبر we mean contemplation by تدبر we mean to ponder to think to begin to look at the hadith not in a superficial understanding لا تقرأ الحديث بقراءة انسطحية as we say لا تقرأه بقراءة انسطحية do not read it don't look at the first layer the same way when it comes to the Quran الحكيم do not look at the Quran and do not read it the Quran as having one layer even the ahadith of the Rasool Allah are very deep as well the Quran tells us the prophet speaks out of revelation the prophet speaks out of guidance from the Almighty the prophet does not speak out of his own هو out of his own inclination towards the dunya and towards his love to the dunya or so on and so forth the prophet in fact has no love for the dunya the prophet is a messenger of Allah the prophet صلى الله عليه و آله has a connection with Allah صبحانه و تعالى 24-7 that is our belief in the prophet and the same way with the imams but they receive when they receive guidance from Allah صبحانه و تعالى the methodology is different one of them the prophet recedes it through Gabriel whereas our ahadith tell us that the imams receive it as a sound or as a revelation in their heart they hear a sound or they hear a sound in their ears or something in their heart moves and they are able to get answers from Allah صبحانه و تعالى at the end of the day this is the shia'a belief the shia'a belief is that the imams are divinely guided and divinely appointed so when it comes to the Quran when it comes to the sunnah the imam says the imam says to do Tadab or contemplation upon a hadith my dear brothers and sisters is better than a thousand years of worship why when you begin to comprehend and dive deeper into your own into your own beliefs for example and you establish a closer connection with Allah صبحانه و تعالى because of this journey your reward first and foremost will be multiplied and that thirst for knowledge and that pleasure will also increase think of it as somebody who gets up and goes to prayer for the sake of prayer he's doing his obligation he goes to pray for the sake of prayer whereas somebody who goes to prayer for the sake of his love and desire to be closer to Allah صبحانه و تعالى look at this scenario as well somebody who his love he has love towards his parents he's been taught to love his parents she has been taught to love her parents but another individual that loves his parents she loves her parents for example but the driving force behind this love it's out of compassion and love for Allah صبحانه و تعالى they have dove so deep and they've understood that in order to be a true متقي a true مخلص to devout and pious person that in order for me to reach that stage of piety and devoutness I have to reach a closer understanding of Allah صبحانه و تعالى and the same comes with the imams and for example you know the conditions of ziyara the conditions of ziyara inform us that if you wish to attain the reward of ziyara you have to have معرفة of the imam sometimes you have أدن المعرفة the least معرفة that you need but it doesn't mean that you cannot climb the ladder and attain more and more knowledge correct so it is from this Bab we say it is from this angle we thought you know what we chose the prophetic sermon of رسول الله the prophetic sermon which encompasses so many merits the month of Ramadan and from the hadith of the imam تدبر في الحديث I thought to myself we thought to ourselves the best way I can give back to the believers is I first of all work on myself and try to gather the resources and then present them to you I thought to myself what is the best way for people to connect in شهر رمضان and the hadith of رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله or the hadith of أحمد but since the sermon of رسول الله encompasses so many teachings I thought to myself why not we just go through the sermon of رسول الله we go through it line by line and we analyze it line by line we give evidence towards it and so on and so forth all from the angle of تدبر في الحديث in order that we reach a closer understanding of some of these words and we'll also see how this sermon of رسول الله itself if you wished right now if you wish to sit down and dissect it you're able to find narrations in our books and in Quranic texts concerning every single part or every single merit which the Prophet mentioned this is very important for you to have always always read when you're reading always try to see has the Imam said this elsewhere can I find this in the Holy Quran or we'll see for example when the Prophet says why is he speaking to the people what does that mean the people is it the people of مدينة is it the people of مكة is it all the people around him or is that people أخطاب is that people an address to all of mankind we see this in the Quran and we'll talk about this إن شاء الله about the use and the use of رسول الله using the word oh people because he begins the Khutbah saying أيها الناس قد قبال إليكم the Prophet is talking to all of us and we'll see how why this is important إن شاء الله let us send the salawat upon محمدنا لي محمد الله المصلي على محمد محمد إن شاء الله الله مصلي على محمد واني محمد so we can inshallah begin we can take that as your introduction إن شاء الله that the backbone behind this discussion is the hadith of Imam صادق التدبر أفضل من عبادة ألف سنة contemplation in one hadith is better than a thousand years of worship now even this hadith itself if we wish to come sorry now come but if we wish to go into it in detail we will find why it's important and you also see in the Quran where Allah سبحانه و تعالى informs us that did they not do تدبر or is there upon their hearts أقفن it's very important and we'll see how important it is to just stop for a moment and ask yourself why was this said that's all it takes by the way all it takes is for you to take the Quran open the Quran and begin to say to yourself يا أيها الناس إن خلقناكم يا أيها الناس أعبد ربكم يا أيها الناس اتقل الله and so on you open the Quran and you see okay more than 15-20 times I said we'll talk about this إن شاء الله Allah سبحانه و تعالى is addressing the people through the tongue of the prophet you know why why is that the case for example you go to the ayah in the Quran which says إن أرسلناك رحمة لل عالمين we have sent you or محمد ابن عبد الله رسول الله on mercy to mankind then you'll see that Islam in its essence is in tune with humanity and with nature parallel with the human rights that everybody is equal everybody is created from one نفس من نفس واحدة and we are all equal in humanity and you learn this is how you begin to truly comprehend the magnitude that is Islam you truly comprehend the messages the رسائل of the prophets and messengers all 124.000 prophets and messengers and أوصيار so let us begin إن شاء الله we said this خطبة so a little bit background of the خطبة and this will be the this considers the introduction إن شاء الله in the following episode إن شاء الله we'll begin with the first line of the خطبة إن شاء الله the خطبة itself the خطبة itself my dear brothers and sisters the خطبة itself it's found narrated in the أمالي of شيخ الصدوق and as well it is found narrated as well in the عيون أخبار رضا of شيخ الصدوق and as well it's found narrated in many other publications in many other books and if you just go back to the books of حديث and go back to the books where the scholars for example have added the فضائل and the merits of شهر رمضان you will find this خطبة my dear brothers and sisters the خطبة is reported and let me read to you for the sake of this discussion so you have إن شاء الله I recommend of course that you try your best to take down whatever notes you find that are beneficial to you إن شاء الله the source of the حديث again found in شيخ الصدوق شيخ الصدوق is أمالي the أمالي of شيخ الصدوق unfortunately I forgot to actually write down the exact page number here but of course I'll give you another reference for the حديث إن شاء الله but to quickly read the senate of the حديث as well for the sake of our discussion it's important that we cover everything because we are doing this brief commentary on this حديث and it's important to go through the حديث holistically as best as we can شيخ الصدوق is reported from محمد ابن أبراهيم he says the حديث is from محمد ابن أبراهيم narrated to me from him from أحمد ابن محمد الحمداني from him from علي ابن الحسن ابن علي ابن فضال from his father meaning الحسن ابن علي ابن فضال from him from his father Nicholas怨ضا from him from his father строفر he posted a smaller report from him stops from his father al-Hussein al-Shaηeed عن حسين موت الأAD he says from his father al-Hussein from his father the Master of the Auducia of the Patrons the Commander of tasteful عليه ابن أبي طالب peace be upon him he said from Ameer al-Mumin, عليه السلام عليه ابن أبي طالب the Commander of the Faithful he said المام عليه الصلاة والسلام هو الشخص who reports to us as a servant of the Messenger of Allah and he says to us he says عن أمير المؤمنين علي ابن أبي طالب قال إن رسول الله صلى الله عليه و آله خطبنا ذات يوم فقال he says and then one one day the Messenger of Allah peace and blessings be upon him the Messenger of Allah came and delivered to us the following sermon and he said and then of course the sermon at its entirety is narrated now going back to maybe somebody might want to ask okay then what is the grading of the hadith chain of transmission though it's important to understand my dear brothers and sisters that it's not always the chain of transmission but of course for the sake of the argument insha'Allah if you go back to the book الموسوعات أحاديث أهل البيت شخادي النجفي volume 4 page 269 شخادي النجفي says in conclusion this report is معتبر the report from a senate standpoint has no problem and again in volume 6 page 249 he reports it from عيون أخبار الرضا and he also says it's معتبر معتمر meaning the senate is reliable though at the end of the day here we will be focusing and we will see by the way we will see that not just that it's معتبر that every single line of رسول الله every single line of رسول الله صلى الله عليه و آله can be proved from the أحاديث and from the Qur'an from the Qur'an from the sunnah which is why it's not always that we play this not play this game sorry it's probably the incorrect way of looking at it but we have this problem in our communities where people always say well what is this chain the chain is the chain is that's not how it works by the way are that's not how they deal with these with this how they discuss these matters especially when it comes to matters of belief for example matters of فضال there is a different approach for everything I suggest that before people jump to conclusions they either have a background or when they jump to conclusions they are jumping in order not jump to conclusions but on order for them if they wish to find the truth it's good to ask by the way but there are those people who are arrogant so no matter what they're asking for the sake of bickering the state of bickering the state of the for the sake of causing this unity between the Shi'a for example but if you're asking and you wish to learn then it's fine it's good to learn but don't have that mentality that's not how it works my dear brothers and sisters that's not how it works there are conditions of the hadith that is accepted I suggest that if you wish to learn these conditions and if you wish to know how this how how the science works you go study inshallah you know the books are there inshallah focus on the Arabic inshallah hone your Arabic skills and then go read the many there are many simple introductory books of رجال شيخ جعفر الصبحاني for example has a beautiful book on the introduction of رجال and I suggest all of you to go back if you have time of course and I believe this book itself is translated in English as well so I do recommend that if you have the time to review these matters but don't just come across something because your mind cannot comprehend it for example or you think it's too far fetched or right away you say oh this is weak you know and you will see the reason also one of the main reasons that we're discussing this خطب is to show you that the حديث is معتبر yes the حديث means the meaning that the sentence sorry the sentence the حديث is reliable but the sentence is not صحيح it's not authentic it's معتبر but you'll find that everything the رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم said in his sermon can be traced back to the Quran and to the Sunnah that is why it's very important when you read the حديث you have a more holistic reading into the مجامع الأحديثية into all the مجامع into the encyclopedia and into the many حديث if there's one thing I wished if there's one thing I wish for their brothers and sisters to take as a practice in شارر مضان is to go back to the books of حديث and read in شاء الله and then just try to energize yourself with the حديث of المحمد in شاء الله صلى الله عليه وسلم وعالي محمد from this of course we will end the first episode and hopefully we will continue the next episode in شاء الله but again to go back to the main points discussed here my dear brothers and sisters the angle and the foundation behind discussing the خطب of رسول الله all began with the حديث of محمد صادق عليه السلام and the Quran and the many narrations and the Quranic texts that inform us the importance of contemplation and the importance of seeking knowledge and the importance of not just reading everything in the superficial sense do not read the حديث my dear brothers and sisters do not read the Quran in a قراءة صطحية please know that with everything there is a button and that button has a button everything has a layer and that layer has a layer and in شاء الله we said of course that if you wish to go back to the حديث the حديث as well can be found translated in English in other languages as well if you just type on your Google search bar in شاء الله type the sermon of the Prophet delivered at the end of شعبان or the sermon of the Prophet delivered at the end of the month of Ramadhan or sorry in the beginning of the month of Ramadhan you'll find the sermon in شاء الله and I suggest that you keep the sermon with you so in شاء الله we'll discuss it because we will discuss line by line and we'll try our best to go I mean we're not into as much detail but just enough for you guys in شاء الله to have a more closer understanding of the words of the Prophet that first of all you'll have a more holistic understanding of the blessing that is the month of Ramadhan and second of all you'll find how the words of the Prophet are deeper they're deeper than how they look on just reading it on a piece of paper or on your laptop or in a book my dear bells and sisters with that in شاء الله we conclude our first episode and I ask for your forgiveness in شاء الله I'm trying my best here to deliver as best of content I can sometimes it's hard to do these recordings when there's no audience but I always when I'm doing this I'm thinking of all those in شاء الله that will benefit from this my dear bells and sisters I wish to thank you for taking this time it is because of you guys you out there my dear bells and sisters you make this possible and I thank you from the bottom of my heart and in شاء الله you will have a fruitful journey during the events of Ramadhan and I say ورحمة الله وبركاته

Every time I enter the doors of the National Archives, I'm struck by the magnitude of this institution and its role in our democracy. It not only is the repository for the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, but also for the 13th, 14th, 15th, and 19th Amendments, which advanced our nation's aspiration to expand rights for all Americans, no matter who you are and no matter when your ancestor arrived, there is a record in these walls that helps tell your family's story. This is especially true of the United States Census, because the Constitution mandated that every person living in the United States be counted every 10 years. We have more than 200 years worth of records documenting who we are as a people. Decades before I became Chair of the National Archives Foundation, I visited the National Archives to research my family history. What began as the tedious and sometimes vertigo-inducing scroll through microfilm census records eventually led me to serendipitous discoveries in original ledgers and handwritten documents. Through the years I've discovered ancestors who served in the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, and a great-great-grandfather who was elected to the Arkansas State Legislature during Reconstruction. Now, with the release of the 1950 census, I'm eager to make even more discoveries. My mother's family included successful entrepreneurs who became wealthy. My father's parents were equally as hardworking and industrious, but they lived in a house without indoor plumbing, as did a surprising number of Americans at the time. Believe it or not, the 1950 census recorded that kind of information. When I was growing up during the 1950s and 1960s, I never saw myself or my African-American ancestors reflected in my history textbooks. But once I began to do my own research, I found evidence of my family's story in census and military records and in newspaper articles. That's when my passion for history blossomed.  Nothing gives me greater joy than helping others discover their own family's place in the American narrative. There is meaning, satisfaction, and pride in knowing family history. Knowing who we are and the contributions our ancestors made in building America allows us to claim our place and to insist on all the rights that come with citizenship. Our stories are our power. And with all the new information you'll discover in the 1950s census, you'll be able to take your family research to the next level. I think you'll find it easier than ever to explore the records and to get to know details about your parents, your grandparents, your great-grandparents, and your great-great-grandparents. Those records are waiting for you. I'll see you there.
