The study used passive acoustic monitoring, PAM, and convolutional neural networks, CNNs, to detect the presence of Amazon River dolphins in four different locations within the Mamirau Reserve in Brazil. The results showed that the dolphins were present in the river entrance and channel, as well as inside the flooded forest, indicating a wide distribution of their population throughout the region. Additionally, the researchers found that boats frequently overlapped with dolphin presence, suggesting that boat traffic could be a potential threat to the animal's survival.

Anthony Smith and Big C are back in the freedom community engaging with you freedom family. Big C will focus on an MGM reboot for Minecraft servers, other game servers, game key giveaways and more for all you gamers and Anthony will create a video I'll play it right after this one introducing himself and his goals with the community team First let's do a quick MGM preview roll it get ready We're coming back better than ever Yes, that is Big C's goal. He's already got new directors on the MGM discord the link is down there in the description below if you want to check it out and now let me play Anthony Smith's welcome back video roll it freedom freedom freedom freedom freedom freedom oh wow I heard my belly freedom today I wanted to talk to you about whoa oh I'm out of practice man oh wow uh actually I wanted to talk to you about hashtag never give up being a content creator on youtube it takes a certain level of stick to itiveness and how you interpret never give up is entirely up to you but here's what it means to me many of you may remember me from such youtube videos as okay so here's the part where I should probably put in clips and in future videos I probably will however I haven't been on this channel in like three years two two and a half years oh that's a lot of videos to scroll back through but if you are curious about me who I am what I've done on this channel and with this network there will be a card on screen now that will take you to a playlist of other Anthony videos but to give you the reader's digest version as short as possible without giving up too much when freedom was a brand new network I helped out I helped out with George I helped out with everybody and I did all the things okay I didn't do all the things I did some of the things I did a lot of the things okay if I'm being honest I did some of the things and I had a lot of fun doing some of the things but what does that have to do with not giving up oh how do you know to ask all of the right questions my youtube friend about two years ago I moved back home from where freedom is located all the way back to the United States and oh boy my life had all kinds of things plotted out for me and it put some things on hold and for a while it made me reevaluate some things for the good for the bad but one thing I never thought of was quitting was stopping making youtube content for myself for others my passion is online video changing lives changing minds and really touching people on a deep level that's a statement that might get me canceled in like 20 years and it's that lack of ability to give up that has put me right here in my bedroom talking to you today freedom family we need an infusion of fun we need an infusion of community we like need an infusion of being able to do awesome things with some awesome people and look I'm not saying that I am going to necessarily spearhead this you know what I would like to do I'd like to be a part of it I'd like to build something that we had once upon a time that yeah I don't know it just doesn't seem like there's as much fun and hard and whimsy like there used to be some of you have seen me kind of creeping around the freedom forums others of you have no clue who the hell I am and the occasional person has actually sent me a message convinced convinced that there's some sort of evil plot afoot no sorry no evil plans unless you happen to count wanting to like be social with other people build something bigger than ourselves as an evil plan if that's evil help me in fairly certain this is how mobs start so freedom family I ask are you prepared nay are you prepared that's the same word are you are you prepared to be a part of something bigger than yourself are you prepared to work collaboratively with others are you prepared to have all of the youtube friends that you can shake a stick at shaking sticks at things I'm definitely going to get canceled so look if I told you I had all the answers right here right now I would be lying I don't I have a set of goals which I'd like to share with you thing number the first the forums need a little bit of love I'm not alone in seeing this and in fact maybe possibly there might maybe be something in the works I'm not promising anything but I kind of have it on good authority wink wink was that subtle enough also I need to know what social media you the people watching this video are the most active on and yeah I'm going to include discord as a social media so like is it Twitter Facebook discord maybe maybe you're on that that Russian one whatever it called our cut or something I don't I don't know I also need to know what sort of community events you've been to participated in and or seen in the past and your experiences with those so go ahead comment section down below let me know I can only help do awesome things if I have feedback from awesome people like you I'm also kind of hoping to be able to form a community of people who help each other out in ways that we just simply don't have now almost like a like a program of some sort where you know people help other people and it doesn't necessarily have to be rewarded in you know with this that or the other I want the actual the help to be the reward I want to create a sense of community so that when someone asks a question people are compelled to answer I kind of want to create like a I kind of want to create something that's not cheesy I want to create something that's not easily gained by people who just kind of want to get something out of it it's my goal to build something that means something oh boy that's a non-statement that's kind of like uh that's lawyer talk right there does anybody remember me back from when I wore the red shirt oh no wait there we go right there hey sorry I'm not entirely sure where that came from my ADHD is running a little bit of a muck right now you know connected story not everybody realizes ADHD is on the spectrum so there may be people in the comment section down below who actually point out the fact that I was once upon a time actually diagnosed with ADD not realizing that it's pretty much the same thing just you know different points on the graph where was I oh yeah build something let's do it I like I said I have these goals I have these aspirations but a big part of that is also listening because building a community doesn't happen from the top down it happens actually kind of from both sides we have to meet in the middle so I need to listen I need to you know help enact things and I will need people to help enact those things too and also just now realize how creepy this kind of looks like something yeah okay yeah this was a bad idea I'm making this video right now but nonetheless I also I know I'm going to get a lot of questions from people about like am I back at freedom what that means what my position is hey look for us if and god sister if I don't have that answer now all I know is I want to do something awesome and I want to do that awesome thing with you I mean maybe not specifically you because you smell but the other people let me know in the comment section down below what community means to you what you'd like to see the community do and keep in mind this is community this is not you know this is not necessarily freedom acting this is just you know hey if you had a group of people a group of youtube friends a group of mentors and mentees is that a word I think that's a word if you already had this what would you appreciate if you didn't have this what would you appreciate you've had something like this in the past where you just had like you know someone helping you develop your skills and helping you sort of you know socially and whatnot let me know because these are all things that I would love to be able to help incorporate in the future and no I'm not acting alone but we will talk about and we will meet those people later and here's a little hint for those of you who kind of want to be the mentor type this is a good chance that that door might be open for you I don't know no problems anything but you know maybe possibly not like we haven't done it before all right so this was a complete note of disaster as my first video coming back to freedom until next time don't forget to like subscribe and do all those things that absolutely positively make me love my job also be awesome to yourself and amazing to each other all right so here's the thing George he has his end card me this is technically my end card I need to have something done up but in the meantime I'm gonna tell you click some things

What is going on everybody? It's Stas here. Welcome back to another video. So as you guys read in the title of today's video, we're going to be talking about how to determine buy points and sell points when you are trading stocks, how to manage your risk, how to understand how much risk and reward is involved in every single trade. We're going to be going over those basics here in today's video. So let's hop right into the topic, guys, starting off with J&J, and we're going to be talking about a couple of different stocks here. I'm going to be doing analysis on a couple of different stocks here on my active watch list. So you guys can get a better understanding on what I personally do when I'm determining buy points and sell points, because it's very important to understand where you want to buy, understand where you want to sell, and to have a plan in place when you are trading in the stock market, whether it's day trading, swing trading, whatever you're doing. It's super, super important to have a plan. So starting off here with Johnson and Johnson, guys, I drew out some basic support levels and some resistance levels throughout the chart here on the 180 day 4-hour chart here. And pretty much, guys, the whole idea, when it comes to swing trading and day trading is a little bit different, but when it comes to swing trading, I like to look at the bigger timeframe charts, the 184-hour chart, maybe sometimes the one-year chart and even sometimes the three-year chart, so we can get a better understanding of the price movement of the stock and where we could potentially be headed over the next couple of weeks and the next couple of months, honestly, guys, because when you're swing trading stocks, sometimes the objective of that trade is to hold the stock for a couple of weeks and sometimes even a couple of months where using these longer-term charts like the one-year one-day chart can be very beneficial to you to determine the overall trend of the particular stock that you're looking to trade. So let's start off here with the 180-day 4-hour chart. We can see a basic support level at about $122, the next one being at about $125, the next one being at about $132, and the one we are currently at right now is at about $136. And notice, guys, on J&J's chart here, whenever we pop above a support or rather a resistance in this case, it becomes a new support level. When we bottomed off at about $122, this was a new support. And then we popped up above $126, that was a resistance making it a new support. And now we popped up above $132. That was a resistance. Then we held it as a support. Now we popped up above $136. That was a resistance. And now we're holding it as a support. So the general idea here, guys, when trading stocks and swing trading, this is very basic, is to enter into a position right around the support level of that stock. Once it does confirm the support and it slowly starts to reverse back to the upside. And once we understand the different support and resistance levels, we get to understand the risk and reward involved with every single potential stock that we want to trade. So let's just talk about that very quickly right now. And we can draw out another resistance right here so we can determine the potential reward of getting into Johnson & Johnson right here at about $136 if it does end up holding this old resistance as a new support. So let's take a look here very quickly. So from $136.75 where we currently are right now, let's say we consolidated there for the rest of the day today and into Monday, right at the time I'm recording this video is Friday. So let's say we consolidated and slowly started to push back up. We can have a potential for profit of around 2% in this particular stock up to the previous resistance at about $140. And let's say we set a 2% stop loss no matter what on every single swing trade that we take, the risk reward ratio on this would be a 2% potential reward versus a 2% potential for loss, which is not really the best potential risk reward ratio that we really want to see. But this is another but right here. If we do end up popping above this 2% level and we continue the uptrend, there could be even further potential for reward which would make or could make this trade worth it right which could make the trade worth it. So we can see here guys the next spot we could potentially go up to would be roughly about $141 which was a previous support here back in the middle towards the end of November of 2018 which is obviously now a new resistance. And let's say we draw another one here at about $145, $144. That would be another support from back towards the end of November the beginning of December which is obviously now a new resistance. So the whole idea here guys is to potentially add more money as we break through these barriers to further our reward potential. That's the whole entire idea here. So let's say we do get in here like we just mentioned, we have about a 2% potential for profit up to $140. Let's say we ended up getting in, we have that 2% locked in, well not really locked in because we didn't take our profits, but we're just up about 2% on our position. The next thing we can potentially do here is A, take our profits and run or hold up to the next resistance which in this case would offer a 3% margin of profit. And let's say we break out of that place, out of that resistance and we want to continue to hold, we could end up making upwards of 5% profit if we end up holding up to the next resistance which in this case is $144. And let me quickly go over an example here that I actually ended up trading a couple of weeks ago. And actually yesterday I ended up taking my profits here on Johnson and Johnson. So for those of you guys that recall, I was in Johnson and Johnson roughly at about $135 and we can draw out another level here that I actually missed. I got into Johnson and Johnson as we broke this resistance at about $135. I got in a couple of weeks back with an average cost at about $135.50. And the reason why I got in here, guys, was there was a ton of potential upside from this break here at $135 up to my sell target where I wanted to sell at about $140. That was about a 4.5% margin of profit that was opened. And I ended up taking my profits a little bit early because we did see a sudden sell-off in J&J stock yesterday. But you can do that, guys. You don't have to stick 100% to your plan all the time. Let's say if something is looking like it's turning to the downside and you want to take your profits, it's never a bad idea just to play it safe. But just for the example in this video, I got in here at $135 with the expectations of getting out at about $140, which was a 4.5% to 5% profit with a 1.5% to 2% potential for loss, which was my stop loss. And that's what I consider a pretty decent risk-reward ratio. A lot of people like to aim for a 10% reward versus a 2% loss. Sometimes that is not really attainable. That's a little bit far-fetched. I like to stick between, in terms of swing trading, about 5% reward versus a 1.5% loss, which is my stop loss in that case. I always, always, always have a stop loss in place when I'm swing trading. And let's say I'm up on a position. I like to use trailing stop losses to protect my profits that I've already made. Let's say I'm up 3-4% on my position. I like to put a trailing stop loss to protect those gains. So let's say it does turn to the downside. I don't lose all of that money that I've already made from holding the stock a couple of weeks. Does that make sense to you guys? Drop a comment down below. Let me know. So the whole entire idea, in terms of swing trading, guys, is draw the resistances, draw the supports, understand how much margin of profit is available from your particular level of entry. And honestly, guys, the best place, in my opinion, to get into a stock is once it is confirming the bounce or the consolidation and the slow pushup from a support level. It wouldn't really make sense to get into the stock right here with the hopes of popping up above here. It would make sense to get in on the dip buy. At least, that's what I personally do. That's the strategy that I personally use. So that is what I do in terms of a longer term basis chart here in Johnson & Johnson with our example when it comes to swing trading. And of course, like I said earlier in the video, I do use some smaller term charts here to understand where to buy and where to sell. And I use indicators like the SMAs. These are my favorite indicators to use, the Simple Moving Average indicators. I have a video tailored to how I use these to buy and sell stocks. Go check out that video. Just type in stock, surface, think, or swim indicators into the search bar on YouTube. It'll pop up. And pretty much here, guys, just like the support and resistance levels that we draw out or drew out on the longer term chart, these SMAs, the indicators, they can also act as support levels and entry points, potential entry points on the pullback and the confirmation of the bounce on the support levels for particular stocks. And let me just give you guys an example here on Johnson & Johnson. We can clearly see, like we saw on the longer term chart, and this is why it's super important to use multiple time frame charts, we can see the rejection at that resistance that we were talking about. And now we're seeing a nice pullback. Not only are we holding that support on the longer term chart that we just talked about on the 137 level, we're also holding that 180-day Simple Moving Average here. As a support, it seems like right now on the 20-day 1-hour chart. So we're seeing two levels of support on different time frames, which does indicate or not really indicates 100% that we're pushing up, that indicates that we're at a level of support right now, which could indicate in the next day or two, this could be a good entry for Johnson & Johnson if we slowly start to push up. And another way you can use Simple Moving Averages, not only as support levels, you can use them as resistance levels, of course, as well, if we're on a downtrend. And let me just show you guys a downtrending pattern here on Johnson & Johnson. Let's see. Perfect. Right here, you can see these indicators were resistance points. So if you are shorting the stock, if you are playing put options on the stock, you can use the same exact strategy in terms of a resistance. So you can potentially buy a put option here or short the stock up here as it's getting rejected by the 50 Simple Moving Average as a resistance. And then as we're slowly pushing down, obviously, when you're shorting or you're playing puts, you'd be profiting on the downside. Another way you can use them is to indicate whether or not there's bullish sentiment in a stock or bearish sentiment in a stock. So judging on this 184-hour chart here, we can see a cross in the 50 SMA above the 180 SMA. And I talked about this in my Think or Swim Indicators video. Whenever we see a 50 SMA cross above the 180 SMA, that is known as a bullish sign, more potential bullish moves, more green could potentially be coming from that. And the opposite is also true if we see a 180 SMA or rather the 50 SMA cross below the 180 SMA, that could indicate more bearish signs in a stock, more potential red in a stock. So the fact that we saw the cross up here, that indicated to me, okay, Johnson and Johnson could be pushing up right now. This could be a good potential time to buy and profit on this bullish move that we're seeing. And at this point, guys, we held above the support. We had a nice, fat margin of profit ahead of us. The cross above the Simple Moving Averages, there's a bunch of good different signs here that showed us, okay, this could be a good potential time to buy. So the whole idea here, guys, is to understand support levels, resistance levels, how much profit is there to capture. What is your reward on that stock? What is your risk? In most cases, your risk is going to be where you set your stop loss. And of course, if you don't set a stop loss, that's not too smart. That is not too smart. Your risk could be unlimited in that case. Because if the stock, let's say you hopped in here, for example, this is when J&J had that asbestos in their products. We all know what ended up happening there. The stock dropped. And let's say you didn't have a stop loss, you would have lost 20% of your money, 10%, 15% of your money.   You want to set a stop loss no matter what. So the whole idea, like I said, support, resistances, risk, reward, and multiple timeframes. And if you're swing trading, longer timeframes are your friend. And of course, if you're day trading stocks, guys, if you want to see some more, you know, intra-weak action, you can use these five-day five-minute charts and the same rules apply. Look at this chart, guys. The same rules apply. The moving averages can act as resistances. The moving averages can act as support levels. Just take a look here. Literally a couple of days ago, back in the beginning of March, the 180SMA was acting as a support. Take a look at that. Very nice, very nice. These could have been potential buy points, right? The pullback here, the bounce and the support. This could have been a potential buy point because the margin of profit was opened, the support was confirmed, and we continued to push up. And we see this is a bearish cross on the smaller term timeframes. Remember, when the 50SMA is breaking below the 180SMA, that is a bearish sign. And we can use that principle on every single timeframe, right? And we can see that cross came here, back on the 6th of March. And what happened from there, guys? The stock has been going red for two days in a row. So these are the basic principles that you need to use when you're determining to buy and when to sell a stock. Risk reward, support your resistances, moving averages, they are your best, best friend. So let's take a look at some other stocks here off the cuff, guys. I did not plan this ahead of time. So let's take a look at what we're going to be doing in terms of these stocks, right? We can see, okay, let me quickly just clear cat. Does cat look good right here for this? Cat, cat, cat.  Let's just do Tesla, guys, because Tesla is a stock that a lot of people love to talk about. So we can see here on the longer term chart on Tesla. Let's use a one year chart so we can get a bigger picture here of what's going on. So we can see Tesla, there's a couple of main support levels on Tesla. One, at about $250, we bounced there back a year ago, honestly, back in March of 2018. We held above $240. The next one being at $240, $250, or roughly $250 about a year ago. Now we're holding $250 or we held it rather back in October of 2018. And this is a clear support level, right? The next level is going to be right at about $275. The next one being, let me just quickly draw this for you guys right here. I guess we can say the next one is at about $280, because we did bottom off here at about the end of January of 2019. The next one being at about $290. And roughly guys, the next one probably being, let's see if I can get this one, maybe at about $310. And the next one being at about $315. You guys get the idea, right? Drawing out these levels gives you an understanding of where the stock is holding supports and where we could be potentially headed next. And we clearly see right now guys, real time action, Tesla is holding the $275 support very, very nicely from back in the middle of May in 2018. And it's been holding that level here for a couple of days, right? We can see we bottomed off at $270. This is actually where I ended up buying Tesla in my long-term portfolio a couple of days back. And from there, we've been holding this level very nicely. That's a very good sign that we're holding it as a support. And now what we want to see is a break above into the $280s, the $285s for that to be a nice, potential entry point, a potential buy point for Tesla. So I do understand that many of you guys probably look at this and you're very, very confused. Obviously, more of the beginners out there are definitely confused, more of the seasoned and intermediate to advanced traders. They all understand this already, right? And another thing you can use to potentially use as a buy signal or a sell signal are channels, guys. Channels. Take a look at this channel right here on Tesla. I didn't mention this on Johnson & Johnson. But on Tesla, this is way more evident and we can clearly see it. And what a channel is, is just a basic pattern that a stock is trading. And we can see it's hopped off here at $375, the next one at about $345, the next one at about $321. And we can draw a nice clear trend line that is showing the resistance at those points. And we can also draw a potential support of that channel like we see right here, which does indicate that Tesla could potentially have some more downside in the stock. But as of right now, guys, let's say we do end up holding this, we don't pop to the bottom of this channel to the downside. We do have a nice margin of profit here of about 10%, maybe 8% up to the resistance of this channel, which would be a point in time where we could potentially sell the stock if we get in on the confirmation of the bounce right here. So very, very simple, guys. You know, support to resistances. Channels are very important. And just like Johnson & Johnson, take a look. Tesla stock, unlike Johnson & Johnson, that's uptrending, Tesla stock is downtrending. And we see the 50 SMA cross below the 180 SMA, which again, is a very, very bearish sign. And what do we see after the cross, guys? The stock has fallen for the past couple of months since the beginning of the middle, rather of actually know the beginning of December, the stock has been falling down in price. So, you know, in terms of Tesla right now, guys, we are nearing a pretty good buy in terms of the support and resistance levels that we've drawn out. But let's say we break the support, the next level we're going to be looking at for a potential buy is going to be at the support of this channel, which at that case would be around 260. And let's say we break this channel, 250 is going to be the next area that we're going to be looking at in terms of Tesla stock. So let's do another one very quickly before I do end off this video. Let's see, maybe Square would be a good example here, Square. Okay, Square is looking pretty solid. And I already have all the levels drawn out here for you guys. So we can see, you know, let's draw a couple more out, the resistance or rather the support at about $50 here, the next one being at about let's say $60-ish. The next one being, let's see, did I draw this one? Nope, I did not draw that one. The next one being at around, let's say $65 support. The next one being at about $68. Then we see this one here where we're actually holding right now, which is a pretty good sign, is at about $70. We ended up, did we sell off the 70 in terms of Square stock? I think we did. Yep, 71, that was actually this morning. And we do see a potential confirmation of the bounce on that 70 support level. So this is actually a pretty good example here, that if we do end up holding this support level at about $70-71 and we break this resistance at about $74, the next point we're going to be looking to get to is at about $77, which offers about a 5% margin of profit. So this is a very, very good example here of a 5% reward potential versus a 1.5% loss where our stop loss would be or whatever your stop loss is set at. Mine is usually set at about 1.5%, 2%. When I'm swing trading and when I'm day trading, a little bit tighter than that sometimes depending on whether I'm trading and leverage DTF, a large cap, a mid cap, small cap, it all depends on what I'm trading and what the volume is looking like for that particular stock. And let's say we break that level, guys, we can have even upwards of 8% profit up to 11-12% if we get back into the $80 level. But another thing I want to warn you guys here for this example of square stock and I'm sure you can point this out on a bunch of different charts, we're slowly seeing a curl to the downside of the 50 SMA. And what does this mean, guys? This means that we could potentially see a downwards cross below the 180 SMA, which could signal further downside in square stock and especially if the markets continue to sell off heavily, which they have been over the past couple of weeks, this could end up pushing down a bunch of these stocks. So I'm going to end off the video right here, guys, but just to give you a quick little synopsis, a recap, what we look for in terms of buying and selling. We like to see support levels and resistance levels drawn out. We like to see more reward potential versus risk. Example, let's say we were to hop into the SPX index right here. There's a ton more risk than there is reward, right? Risk is outweighing the reward. It might not be too great of a time to hop into a stock index ETF that looks like that. Another thing, moving averages, they are your best friend on all time frames for support levels, resistance levels, understanding the trend of the overall stock. Are we pushing up? Are we pushing down? Is there going to be further downside, further upside? Understanding the 50 SMA cross above the 180 SMA, that's a very bullish sign. The downwards cross between, or rather, the downwards push of the 50 SMA below the 180 SMA, like we saw back here in the beginning of October on the SPX, that's a bearish sign, right?

Remember this Zuko. No matter how things may seem to change, never forget who you are. Zuko alone in the title itself holds weight in symbolism. In this seventh episode of the second season, Zuko spends the entire episode alone. The episode begins and ends by himself in current time and by the end of the flashbacks. It is also an episode that is not show or even mention the gang once. It truly is Zuko alone. The scenes of a lonely cowboy like Zuko riding towards the sunset, the close up shots of the young prince's face, carry reference to a number of westerns. The episode opens with Zuko, his sunken cheekbones and his rumbling stomach that steer him towards a desolate earth kingdom village. As he's on a hunt for food. There's barely any people nor is there any life. It is a village that the war has really affected. The first encounter Zuko has is with the rogue earth kingdom soldiers of the village and these soldiers really add a layer of depth specifically to the war and welcome the underlying focus of the episode. And so as the episode continues, the rogue earth kingdom soldiers end up stealing Zuko's items and one of the townsmen speak about how this is not regular behavior. With the behavior of the rogue earth kingdom soldiers, this kind of sheds a light that not all of the nations are good as they claim to be or as the show has perceived them to be. While yes, the fire nation may be the main threat, each nation has individuals that abuse their power. This episode centers on Zuko and him helping a boy, Lee, and his withering earth kingdom family. The question I always asked myself was, why did Zuko even decide to help this family? It was a random family, a random town that he didn't owe anything to. To me, this was Zuko's first attempt at trying to honestly understand Uncle Iroh and his teachings. Teachings of kindness and humility.  And as the flashbacks begin to Zuko's past, they really highlight all of the different relationships of the fire nation royalty. The scarcely mentioned Ursa and her kids, specifically Zuko, Ozai's relationship with his father, Azulan, and Azula and Zuko's relationship. Zuko and his mother had a very special relationship and it seemed as though in their family of four, they were the only ones who didn't crave power or have a cruelty to them. Ursa acted as the watchful eye making sure that Azula didn't bully Zuko and protecting her son at all costs against her husband Ozai. Conversely, this episode follows the infrequent encounters between Azula and her mother. While it wasn't much, Ursa did see something wrong with Azula, often commenting on her cruelty as she was so young. And also the first flashback demonstrates that, even at a young age, Azula sought perfection. And she was also an envious child, as shown by her reaction to Ty Lee. The flashback continued to Iroh as he was in the middle of his famed bossing Seiji. The episode highlights how he sent Zuko and Azula gifts an inscribed Earth Kingdom dagger for Zuko and an Earth Kingdom doll for Azula. Azula comments asking Ursa that if Iroh doesn't return, then her father would become Fire Lord, following by her burning the doll's head. And again, these comments and sadistic actions really beg the question of why and how Azula has become this way, again at such a young age, possibly highlighting her desire to gain nothing else but her father's attention and love. Moving forward in the episode, Azula continues to help the family, the Earth Kingdom soldiers return, and they inform the family that their oldest son's battalion got captured. And one of them makes a comment about how Fire Nation soldiers dress their prisoners as Fire Nation soldiers and put them on the front line, unarmed. And this really illustrates the brutality of war and of the Fire Nation. And to make things worse, these are their own soldiers who are supposed to be protecting them. Instead they are making jokes and bullying their own, drunk with power. In the episode flashes back once again to show Ozai's lust for power, as he pleads to his father about being next in line, claiming that Iroh is unfit to lead, especially after abandoning the siege because of the death of his son, Azulan quickly dismisses this idea and instead orders the death of Ozai's first born, Zuko. Without it being shown, Azulan mysteriously dies and Ursa flees the Fire Nation, as it was her efforts that protected her son. Finally, Zuko is asked to help Lee by Lee's mother, as the boy got himself into trouble with the village's soldiers again. Zuko successfully defeats three of the four Earth Kingdom soldiers without firebending, though as he is consistently knocked down by the leader, he begins to remember his mother's words, to never forget who he is.  Many people look down on this family and Lee for reacting this way after he helped them, but let us not forget, Zuko just proudly claimed that not only is he Fire Nation, but that he is the son of the Fire Lord, and heir to the throne, that he could potentially be adding years on to this war, if it gets to that point. But this has been going on for a century. This is the effect of the war. The Fire Nation's attacks have caused such ingrained hatred towards them that even acts of kindness are quickly forgotten. The Fire Nation have taken people's lives for a century, so their reaction is so normal. This episode showcases the realism of war on a grounded level, compared to how it's commonly shown on a worldly scale. Zuko alone stands as one of my favorite episodes because of two things, the complexity of war, and the complexity of the royal family responsible for it. It also displays the impact that Zuko's mother had in shaping his identity, the inscribed dagger that Iroh sent to Zuko had the inscription to never give up, which also parallels what his mother tells him when he fails his demonstration to Fire Lord That's who you are, Zuko, someone who keeps fighting even though it's hard. This is her role in shaping Zuko's character, and it seemed as though those words were like a parting gift. Before she leaves, Ursa tells Zuko to never forget who he is. And just before that, she tells him exactly who he is, someone who doesn't give up. Ursa built Zuko up, and suddenly she had to leave, effectively leaving Zuko as the title states alone, leaving him with Ozai and Azula, though thankfully he had Uncle Iroh. This episode forced Zuko to see the Fire Nation from a perspective completely different than his own. Instead of seeing it as Prince Zuko of the Fire Nation, he sees it as an unnamed refugee. He hears how the Fire Nation soldiers treat prisoners. He sees that when showing off that he's actually a firebender, and even worse son of the Fire Lord, the reaction that it gets. The fact that he helped that family didn't matter in the slightest. The war was indirectly caused by him, and Zuko sees the reaction of Lee telling Zuko that he hates him. Because Lee's brother, and now possibly his father, could be one of those people brought to the front lines unarmed at any given moment. This episode reels us back into the reality of the world. It reminds us that this war has been going on for a hundred years.


Everybody can be who they want to be. Not everybody is part of a gang. There's some young people who are trying to elevate themselves. There's young people trying to put forward a stance of positivity. My choice of being an ambassador for the good was conscious. And again, I do have backlash for that, like my knee. Like, this is what people have done to me because of my stance. Osmond did not play with young children, like in the estate where he was born and grew. He always had significant adults. And he saw what we represent and what we stood for.  But however, we do have a stroke of fortune. We have Providence Youth Club, we've got Key's house, we've got Battersea Arts Centre. I was able to use my environment and look to see who is motivational and who is somebody that is not really worth giving any kind of credibility to. When you take someone else out from an environment and show them something good, which is still in reach of them, it just brings about a new persona to the person, which I think I was able to fit into that. And I was able to showcase my skills and I'm able to affect my community, which I don't think is on the academic forum for the year. I encouraged him with lots of board games. Life is what you make it is based on when Stanley Estate where we are and the aim of the game is to educate those in society and young people to have better life choice, opportunity, skills, making critical thinking and to be able to make the players that play become better citizens. It makes the player understand what do you value, short-term validation or long-term futuristic opportunities. So it's not about money, it's about your risk, karma and knowledge level. If you've got too much risk, jobs don't employ you, people don't really want to be around you because you're tainted. But if you've got a lot of knowledge and karma, you're more likely to be a person that's respectable and has a good rating. I supported Osmond and Life's What You Make It as a producer thinking about how to develop the mechanism of the game, how to turn it into a school's resource, how to bring on partners who were able to support us with the expertise that we needed to do that and also how to continue to fund it. What Osmond does is so important because he supports young people in his community to change their perception on their situation and their choices and also he lifts up his community and celebrates it. I think it's amazing that he had that idea with such clarity and it's such a young age and he's pursued it for 10 years and enabled it to grow and reach so many people's lives. I think I've been educated today to know that national lottery does a lot more than what the eye can see and having been shortlisted and becoming a winner has made me kind of feel influential and I have now a position to play, which is to continue my work and to stay positive of everything I do. My grandmother influenced me with her kind of demeanour in public. She knows how to hold a room. She was really strong-willed and determined so I just like to say I love you, Nani. I've been to different countries feeding, looking after people on my own budget and seeing your grandson developing that kind of behaviour. It's glorifies my heart.


I'm John Perlund. I'm an MSP and Comedian of the Public Petitions Committee. Anyone can petition the Scottish Parliament for it's a powerful and direct way of making your voice heard. And unlike the system Westminster, each and every petition lodged is considered public by a committee at a formal meeting. For example, it's how the mesh implant scandal came to the attention of the public. The Public Petitions Committee is coming to Dumfries and one of the committee members, John Molson, has been on the ground asking people if there was one subject you wanted to discuss in the Scottish Parliament, what would it be? Well, this would be the petition against what they propose to do to the White Sands. Yes, exactly what it is. They're trying to basically change the White Sands forever. They're trying to build massive earthen buns which are going to hide the river away. If there was any issue you wanted to take to that committee, what would that issue be? Over the potholes on the roads, they're very bad. They do repair them but then it doesn't last and the roads are all breaking up on the Edinburgh road especially. So it's the proposed flood defence. How is that an issue for you? It's an issue for me because although the flood defence is going to prevent flooding on businesses on the White Sands, it's going to cause further flooding along the Nith. You've indicated that you'd like to put a petition about skills for those graduates and the skilled workforce getting them back into employment. What are there any particular issues you'd like to raise if you're putting that petition forward? I think having some guidance, a framework in place to allow people to access various facilities. I've been in this situation and it's taken me a great deal of time to find funding, support groups to get myself back into work. But I've had to look very, very hard for that and it has taken time. The public of Dumfries have got the opportunity to come and hear the Public Petitions Committee in action on the 23rd of February. If you want further information or details, go to the Scottish Parliament website and you will get full details of the events being held that day and in particular when the Public Petitions Committee will be meeting.


Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the Everton News Daily as we are emerging from the international break on to the beginning of the Premier League return and for Everton that is on Sunday against Arsenal and Everton have confirmed the squad and the squad numbers for the upcoming season and it's no surprise that Jack Harrison has taken the number 11 chart from Damari Greger. This was rumoured, speculated and pretty much everyone knew the minute he'd signed that he was getting the number 11 chart another indication that Damari Greger was going to be leaving the club. There are 26 players in the squad, four of those are goalkeepers, pretty much all the squad numbers you already knew are the same obviously because they're the ones you start the season with. Andre Gomez is in the squad obviously with number 21, Deli number 20, Lewis Dobbin obviously in the squad and Tyler on Yango are the young players alongside Nusana Yousaf Shamiti so it's good to have to wait and see whether that squad is good enough but Jack Harrison takes the number 11 chart so there you go. Obviously as I said international window this games happened and there's some games still to go. Nathan Paterson was a late sub as Scotland beat Cyprus 3-0 to make a 5 out of 5 wins for them. They're playing a friendly tomorrow against England. Paterson's got a tough job on his hands actually getting that right back spot back but that's good for Everton and certainly if they're in contention for going the Euros in the summer then he's got to up his Everton form to get that spot back. As I said they're playing England tomorrow, Jordan Pickford played against Ukraine. That's how they make a linko playing for them. They drew 1-1 in that game. He had a decent game actually. Kyle Walker got round the back of him for the equaliser but apart from that he was quite defensively strong giving Sacher a tough time and it'll be interesting whether that continues on Sunday when as I said Everton will face the Gunners at Gouldersen. Onanna played as well in a 1-0 win for Belgium against Azerbaijan. Played in that 6th role. Done quite well to be honest in the game. It wasn't a great game of football and he wasn't massively tested but he done well in the game. Which has led Philip Albert, the ex-Newcastle and Belgium defender to say that he was very surprised that no one paid the 85 million euro clause. So he's indicating there that there's a bio clause in his contract. He said when I see how easily Chelsea spend the money to buy anything and everything I find it very strange that they don't buy a player like Onanna for less than 100 million euros. He said he's a monster and technically he also has quality. Interesting quote but just interesting that he's put in there that there's a 72 million pound clause in the contract. We'll have to wait and see whether that is real and whether anything happens with that next summer. Belgium play again tomorrow. Ukraine are away to Italy tomorrow. That's a huge game in England's group. England look like they're going to qualify quite easily but to get that second automatic place it's between Ukraine and Italy. There's only a couple of points between them. Italy currently in third. That's a big game and a big test for Michelinco as they travel to the San Siro for that one. The only other game tonight is England play England under 21s. James Garner and obviously Jared Branthwy not involved in that game. He is pulled out due to injury. So that's it as I said being a bit of a quiet weekend for Everton. So we'll be back tomorrow. Hopefully a little bit more news as we get closer to the Premier League retain on the weekend. So there you go. Give this video a like subscribe if you haven't already. If you want more great videos tune us over on Toffy TV Premier.

concluding discussions on the project logistics. So, anybody has worked out some additional figures or whatever? Yesterday we had come up with some figure, 43,000 or something. I do not remember that. There is somebody who pointed out that in I think Surat or somewhere where there are two coordinators and they are paid 6,000 rupees. Surat person is here. That is correct figure, no? So, when we multiplied by 3,000 by 2, that was adequate or is it 6,000 to each coordinator? To each coordinator? Oh my God. So, what you are saying is I have to add 6,000 rupees more here. So, we will call it Surat solution. Surat kal, Surat kal. For coordinator is 6,000 rupees and for a teaching staff, those who are going to help in lab, 300 rupees per day and the session is 3 hour session, not 1 and half hour. 300 per day per session you mean then? 3 hour session. So, per day you can say. And how many teachers? I have taken 10. No, no, 10 sessions. Number of teachers can be decided. Decided is up to them only. So, it is up to them. I have taken 10. So, this you are saying this is 3,000. And technical staff? Yes. 100 rupees per day and they are going to help in the sense of your lab and technical support whatever is. So, this is for 10 days. And how many technical staff? I am taking 2. And for that e-learning operator they need one guy to operate and all those things. So, for that I decided 100 rupees per day and one person only for this job. Just one form of correct it sir. The teaching staff I have taken 10 guys for teaching staff. 10. 10 guys for 10 days. So, it comes around 30,000. 10 guys for 10 days. So, 10 guys for each of the 10 days. 10 guys for each day. No, if it is one per day it is 300 into 10. 10 guys for 10 days. Wow. So, there could be more teachers than the participants. Sir, it depends upon the number of participants registered for the course. Suppose it is more then we cannot predict how many people we require for teaching and support. This figure is for the 60 candidates. Okay. So, will it be correct to assume that for 30 candidates 5 teachers will do? Oh yeah. So, either 5 or 10. 5 or 10. So, this could be either 30,000 or 50. 60 will become 2 coordinators. So, you are saying 6,000 per coordinator. So, then this should be 12,000 then. Oh yeah. And then otherwise it should be 6,000. Otherwise it is 6,000. That is what you are saying. Okay. So, I will say class of 60 and class of 30. Right? That is how these figures will be. So, class of 30, your solution is much less in terms of honorarium. It is 15 plus 6, 21, 23, 24,000. Okay. And class of 60, it will be… If the coordinator is there then it will be… 42, 44, 45,000. 45. And if one is… Sorry. Yeah. If one coordinator is there then on the time it is around 41,000 only. No, no. That is okay. I like the idea of two coordinators. Yes. Although whether the number only is the disaster factor but that is a different story. I will tell you what will happen. Most of the people may have two distinct labs physically. The lecture may be a single hall of 60 people because it is on a reset base but labs may be physically two labs. And naturally we would expect coordinator of two actually look at those 30 people, one set and 30 people on other set. So, this makes sense to me. Okay. So, effectively we are saying is that by the way let me ask you a harder question. If teaching staff is being paid 300 rupees per three hour session, the e-learning operator 100 rupees per day may be okay. But the technical staff, there would be different cadres of technical staff. Now for example, we have here, Dr. Mukta Atre of course is an administrative manager but there are technical managers like Dr. Subhadra, Dr. Vijay Lakshmi. Now Dr. Subhadra is a senior sysadman. He is almost like an associate professor level person. No, for senior sysadman we are going to keep in a teaching staff only. This tech staff I am just supporting. So, nomenclature would it not be better if we say teaching stroke senior technical staff. Yes, sir. Something like that. Then they will be part of this. Okay. Because you may not find 10 teachers to actually who know programming to that extent in some colleges. That's why that's all over the senior. Fair enough. So, is this agreeable that this then represents the realistic figures? Yeah. Sir, based on yesterday's discussion where we had something like 500 per session for a teaching staff and 250 per session for a technical staff. Yes. What in my opinion is generally the difference is just 50 percentage. Whatever teaching staff has been assigned 50 percentage has been allotted for a technical staff. This is roughly in my opinion works out in all places. So, that is better. So, it is better to put this as 150 and 150 rather than. No, more than that. That is per session and this is per day. So, here it there is a big difference. Okay. What we worked out yesterday was both were per session based. I mean, we can quickly discuss it and finalize. Okay, fine. So, what you are saying is that there is no harm if to the technical staff we pay as much as 300 rupees, for example, which is per a day. Per day. All right. Exactly. And similarly for this person also we pay 300 rupees. Yeah. Per day. Okay.  The whole edifice is built on that. Our course will collapse. And there is no harm in saying that we value you as well. It is not really a large chunk of money. So, I would tend to agree with his observation. In which case these numbers will simply become, this will become 3000 and this will become 6000. And if I add these two differences, this is 4000 difference, this is 2000 difference. So, I have six here and I have six here. So, this becomes 30,000 and this becomes 51,000. Am I right? Roughly that is the calculation. Yes. Okay, fine. We will take this as acceptable by everywhere. Okay. Now, we have to work out the other costs. The other costs are stay, food and transport. I mean travel. Now, one of the important hallmark of my scheme suggested to MHRD is that today if IIT Guwahati arranges a QIP or IST program, then maximum money is spent by the government in travel. And very little money is spent in coordination and actual activity. Here the idea is that the travel expenditure should be either zero or minimum. So, consequently anybody trying to register cross-country, that is Bombay people wanting to register in Bangalore and Coimbatore person wanting to go to Pune. Okay. Now, these are fancy flights of imagination, but we must immediately say that that is not possible. The best way to say is I have tried the following thing, just consider this. I just want to clarify one thing. How the registration process is going to happen? It is going to happen online. So, suppose a person registered because we have multiple campuses. Suppose a person from nearby place near Hamidthapuri registered in Coimbatore campus or Bangalore campus. So, how is it filtered? The solution is simple. The solution is not saying that you can't do it or police it. The solution is to say not more than 1000 rupees be paid for travel expenses both ways. Can we restrict it that way the nearest place from their college? From where they are working. No. There is still a larger implication. Please remember that even after this second workshop, we still do not have presence from large stacks of the country. What if somebody wants to come from Patna? The nearest center probably is Nagpur. Okay. If 20 teachers from Patna want to pile up on Kanpur, or Kanpur will go bankrupt with this kind of things. Nagpur, I mean. Nagpur se koi hai there? So, whatever. What I am saying is why not we say that we shall restrict the travel reimbursement up to a maximum this amount per candidate. That is we want to spend all our money in actually teaching learning process making sure that the teachers and learners are well taken care of during the course. Now this suggestion IST found to be okay, MHRD also found to be okay. In practice will it work out. My guess is that if we put this restriction automatically people will register for the nearby center because somebody will have to pay for their travel.  And both are likely to be reluctant in spending money from their pockets. So, how much is realistic? I was saying something like 1000 or 2000 per participant because please remember that per participant expands. So, let's take a case of 30 participants. Okay. And work out per participant costs. First of all I want an approximate estimate of food and stay per day per participant. We are talking about per participant cost estimates. We are estimated that the food will cost anywhere between 100 to 250 rupees depending upon the place where the costs are widely different at different places. Okay. Similarly, stay if you have a guest house or hostel or something then the accommodation will be less. If you have to accommodate people in hostel your budget will, you can't sustain it. Now, here is the point I was trying to make. The bigger cities where ordinarily there is a problem for accommodation but there is also an advantage that there are many engineering colleges in those bigger cities themselves. So, they don't have to stay. Smaller places can perhaps afford a relatively cheaper accommodation in food because they would have hostels or something like that. That is the assumption. Now, you know your own colleges. What kind of facilities are possible and what kind of state charges will be levied. For example, in our staff hostel, not the guest house kind of accommodation, staff hostel kind of accommodation is about 50 rupees per day. So, I don't know how it is in your places. We are having guest hostels that charge 100 rupees a day. Okay. 100 rupees per day. Can I have a suggestion? Yeah, please. Now, for working out this shall we decide like for 30 participant for stay purpose can we calculate in 215 so that the balance will be there instead of not blindly multiplying it by 30. No, I am calculating per participant only. Okay. So, we can calculate for any number of people whether it is 35, 28. I will tell you the reason. The other cost I can imagine to be fixed for 30 and 60. So, if there is a small variation instead of 30 suppose 34 people come you can still count it as 30. If 28 people come or 25 people come still you will require that paraphernalia. You can't reduce that number. But the per participant cost can be calculated actually per participant. So, there is a merit in calculating this per participant. For a gross level estimation we can decide to multiply it by 50, no 30 or whatever. Okay. So, is it okay if we take 100 rupees per day stay 350 per day? Yeah, per day sir. But is it single occupancy or double occupancy? Double occupancy. So, then it is 125. 175. So, you are saying this could range up to 175 also. Yeah. That's the cost. Okay. We may even say that people wanting to attend that Surat Kal will have to pay from their pocket. No, that will not be good. And that's the problem is that unlike there are many engineering colleges in that vicinity but none within let's say half an hour or 45 minutes or there are one hour I think. Nitte was... Half an hour, yes. So, people can still commute every day to the workshop and go back. Half of the person, actually the thing is then whenever Nitte is going to put anything to the IST workshop and all, we have a huge response. That's where we are going. So, first of all my request is to you, first you set the criteria. Mentioning the person from Bangalore and whatever they must register with Bangalore Centre only. Of course. Otherwise it's... No, no, by the way we have full freedom to reject any registration. What we'll do is we'll open a professional registration. We will have on the wiki, we'll create a wiki along with that website. The wiki will be accessible to all of you. And we will never ever finalize a person for a centre unless the centre coordinator says okay. Ultimately you are going to be responsible for their well-being or for paying them or whatever. Then it's fine sir. Yeah, absolutely. Then try to target our nearby colleges. In fact that was the whole idea in this distributed concept. Otherwise there is no point. We have been conducting your IPIST workshop for ages. So have you been, many of you. The point here is that a single coordinator workshop, I want 200 centres in the country in the next one and a half years. Because from 200 centres, people literally can travel on a scooter or rickshaw or something like that and go there every morning. But doesn't matter. For the time being we'll assume that. So what is the first case and the best case this thing? If I take these two extreme, the per participant cost is either 200 rupees or 425 rupees. That's a lot of cost. I am thankful for the suggestion that instead of 15 days we do it only for 10 days. But even when you say 10 days people will come the previous evening and people will go the next day morning. And this is 11 days figure. So 11 days you have to calculate anyway. It still means that it is 2200 per participant or is that correct? Something like this. Now you will understand why I am saying I restrict the travel expense. Rather than paying 3000 rupees to a person for travel I would give him better food by spending that money here. I would give him as referred by madam and some of the participants it is better to calculate for 12 days. So something like half day or this side or that side. No, no. I have added this here on the higher side. The problem is that the bureaucracy in Delhi does not recognize differences in location differences in cost. We have a Kahavat in Hindi which is called sab gode bara takke. So whatever it doesn't matter there is no distinction. So like that Bombay is supposed to be as cheap as Jharsuguda. We can't help it. So Jharsuguda people might be staying in a nice place and eating well. In Bombay for the same money you can either eat well and sleep on the footpath or stay in the guest house and attend workshop hungry. These are the two choices you have. Both are very bad choices. So the worst case we can tell them that not only the corporation will be given please bring your tiffin when you come to the workshop. We will have a joint. Whatever. Now the IST and MHRD is going to ask me to average this out. It will not permit us to distinguish between different centers. Or should we say just like they have this what you call city compensatory allowance. Any one of you have it? This is a government mechanism. So they divide the cities in class A, class B, class C. Now just as city compensatory allowance is different or the daily allowance is different at these three places. Should we be willing to say that there will be three categories or two categories depending upon the place? Now Amravati friend may not be very happy because his cost may not be significantly lower but he ends up getting less money for doing the same Godagiri. Please observe that we are talking only about the actual cost. As far as the honorarium and all concern there is no city based distinction. So is that reasonable to say that we will have these classes? Now quickly if you take a roll call here what are the categories of the city how many of you can say do it something in this cost? How many of you will require this? And how many of you can do something in between let's say 3,500? Just I am tentatively asking. Based on your own past experience of organizing B. So one, sorry? C. Suratkal if you go by the government of India classification is probably class C. Excuse me sir. So B means here. Excuse me sir. Here the food includes lunch and dinner both or one time food. If they are staying there then depends. I mean I don't know it see it's all up to us to frame the rules. The point is that when they stay there then I think 100 rupees is not enough for both the times. Correct. Breakfast also includes. So breakfast, lunch, dinner will be not 100 rupees how much it will be? Maybe 250. Yeah whatever. Maybe 250. So 250 is the correct this thing. But the stay may be different. So you are saying that this figure is all wrong. Yes. Now if we make this as let's say 250 then 150 rupees increase here. 150 into 11 days this figure is perhaps closer to that. So can we say that we are talking only about either this or this? Yes. Okay. Let us multiply this by number of students, sorry number of participants and find out what happens. I will take a round figure of 5000 rupees instead of 5100 that we had elaborately calculated. And if I have 30 participants this works out to 150,000 for 30 participants. Now we had worked out the total cost for 30 students as 30,000 rupees. So for 30 participants 180,000 is the cost of stay, food and other things. If I have to add to it a maximum amount of travel that I will reimburse which is the condition that we will put. That this is the maximum amount of travel. We are not saying you cannot come from any place. You come from whatever place preferably from a nearby place but the course will not be able to compensate you for more than this much amount for travel. Now if people are travelling within about 100 kilometers of your place or say 50 to 100 kilometers what will be the travel cost typically?  Ultimately you have to balance the financial thing there but assuming that they come and stay with you and they are within 100 kilometers, 100 kilometer travel by either bus, train, whatever the entitlement maximum 200. What I was suggesting is, suppose I say max limit on travel reimbursement. We can't use rupees 1000 both ways. Now this 1000 you can use it for local travel for tenders or this 1000 you can use it for coming and staying with us. If we do that and multiply with this by 30 we actually can run this course in 210,000 rupees. What about the institutional overhead? Small addition is, with respect to that list of members that is a small addition, one attendee we were talking yesterday and a miscellaneous expenses like many things like materials and as you pointed out the institution resource usage. So any suggestion on the miscellaneous expenses? Because these will be gross amounts, right? Institute charges typically like government of Maharashtra pays for MSI exams and others. It is like 25 rupees into number of students into number of days. 25 into 30 into 10. That is the institute facility utilization charges. 7500. That is your Maharashtra government. Suppose we say 10,000 rupees lump sum. Will that be okay? This goes directly to the institute for whatever purposes the director wants to use it. Diesel charges for generators like different colleges in Maharashtra typically for load shedding. The generator is going to be a major thing. I have to get a clearance from Delhi on that. I had talked to somebody and he suggested that you put it under consumable budget. But what he finally said is you can spend from consumable budget but you have to manage the total thing in the budget that we have given. So it is like I have to basically take out his shirt and give it to you to burn diesel. There is no other choice I have. The total budget will be fixed. I am trying to negotiate that total budget. That is why I want it. Suppose we put this as 10,000. Just rough estimate on miscellaneous expenditure. Something like per participant we can fix an amount, multiply it by that. 100 into 30. No, this will be one time. It is not per day. No, it is easy. No, it is not a daily miscellaneous.  Xerox and give them handouts or whatever. So something like 100 rupees per participant. So 30 into 100 is let's say 3,000 rupees. But I would like to break this miscellaneous expenditure into two kinds. One is actually whatever you may say, material like Xerox or certificates or whatever. So I would like to put that as say 5,000. I would like to put that additional 5,000 as contingency available to the coordinator. Suppose you have to hire somebody, run there and do something. Now you should be financially independent. What happens otherwise is that and if you are able to compensate somebody, people will be able to work.  That's a fact of life. You should have a financial stature. Say I will compensate you. Now if we add all of these 10,000, 10,000, 10,000, this becomes 230,000. What IST is telling me is that they will no way agree for more than 185,000 or something. I have been questioning their figure. Actually I have been fighting to get 250,000. What the government has approved me is 2 lakh rupees. So the Maramari is going on this. This is the IST figure. This is what I have demanded. This is DB Fatak's figure. And this is MHRD's current figure. Now if you look at this figure, it is 30,000 rupees less. I would rather reduce this maximum limit on travel expenditure which made 30,000 to 15,000 but not reduce these. Because the contingency in the hands of coordinator is according to be the most important component. Whether coordinator feels very comfortable doing small things. Yes, any suggestion in this? Sir, although I don't have experience about this finance but I feel institute charges of 10,000 considering like 10,000, 3, 4 labs will run for 10 days with AC and power consumption and all these things. I don't know whether maybe the people who have hosted will... In my institute, I have been slogging for this for two and a half years. You saw the staff. All of them are being paid salary from the MHRD funds. The institute overhead being paid is 0 rupees. This is a national mission. And if any institution in the country has received direct or indirect support from MHRD actually this will be question crossed. That's a fact of life. I mean ministry along with the CVC and the auditors etc. will descend on your campus, ask you to return whatever loans you got from government. Now the fact of life is that there are many private institutions who have to spend some money. What I would like to suggest is that... And I will write this later to the heads of the institutions to give me your thing. Saying that please consider this to be a national mission. As a part of the... This is called national mission. And the purpose is to train teachers better so that the students get trained better. So all of us in our postgraduate courses we get better students. But overheads of any IIT Bombay gets 0 rupees overheads. 0. And as an added attraction it continues to pay my salary. So that's... But of course the college is like Surat Kalanol for example. I mean I am not sure what exactly will answer to ministry when we show 10,000 rupees as overhead. Yes. I am saying that I would like to include it because I will not put it as institute charges. I will say charges for institute facilities used. Something like that. Facilities. Whatever. But I would think that just like my coordinator should have a 5,000 rupees of contingency. The director of the institute should also have 10,000 rupees to spend some... You see when you conduct this course there will be several people who will say wonderful work you are doing. There will be several others saying that the institute is doing this. To tell them the director should be able to say look he is also earning a little money for the institute. So this is token. I think we should take it like that. Is that okay? Even if you don't pay the institute charges it's okay but the diesel charges are important. Institutes won't be ready to run the facilities by generator sets because that's a big amount typically in our case. You should collect that money from the energy minister of Maharashtra state. But I will tell you what you have to do in that case. What I propose also I will tell you. I will fight for 230,000 rupees. I will fight for 230,000 rupees. And I will fight hard and I can assure you wherever I fought hard in life I have not lost. So I should be able to get this. If I get this for 30 people then I think we should be okay. Now within this 230,000 if you can cut the cost here and there and arrange for it I think that should be fine. So in your case for example all of these 10,000 all of your contingency and you can give only lunch and not dinner so you will get some money. You can ask the participants do they want light in the class or they want food in the stomach. You have one of the two choices. The budget one thing we yesterday evening we were discussing we were talking about the enthusiasm from different teachers with respect to as soon as they see the browser. My feel or some of our feel is can we add something like OS technology or open source something that kind of term in the title of our workshop which will enhance the interest towards the workshop. You still believe that just by writing programming people may not be interested. Will it be appropriate to add that term? I have absolutely no problem. I would say using state of art technologies and open source or something of that. Well since we are creative I would suggest all of you over the next 4-5 days in your travel back in your flight car taxi whatever please keep thinking about it and please keep sending emails back. Regarding the infrastructure they are using in the lab please make sure each machine is installed in some Linux distribution. It is not using PuTTY or any hyper terminal. Please make sure to install that. That is the whole point of exposing you to these installations. In our institution we will take care. That is why these installations can be dual boot so you don't disturb any if you have a microsoft setup many colleges may have a microsoft setup but you will have to dedicate one server which is an NFS mount server that server will have to have large space that can also be dual mount but for the lab you have to run it like a Linux server and when you say the lab for the entire workshop because people staying there will be accessing it at any point in time and the idea is to encourage people to access it in the night or in the evenings or whatever so that server has to be more or less full time working and the machines you can at best have dual boots but all our environment for example when the CS 101 course starts 4 CIS admins which are MTech students will go and install Linux on all 100 machines so they will ask the teacher what environment do you want we have never been able to do it so well as we are doing it for the course by the way we are making DVDs which will directly can be used they contain all the resources today our CS admins have to find out this resource from here this resource from there this resource from there so that will have to be done there is no shortcut for that now that is the second thing I wanted to tell you is that lab environment will decide how many people can you actually have now here is my suggestion if I can make 45 people or 40 people instead of 30 or say even 60 people then the cost is less than 2 times this that has been added sir we added this 30,000 rupees only that 30,000 is not going to make a difference now this 30,000 will become 51,000 for 60 people and this number will also increase okay anyway whatever I think I will fight for 230,000 but the idea is that I would like to have a flexibility from MHRD saying that depending upon the number of registrations we would like to give varied grant not a fixed grant as IST does so there what we will do is we will compute miscellaneous expenses institute charges and this amount has fixed depending upon the slab and the variable whatever we have calculated we will calculate on a per participant basis rounded up to the nearest integer or some such thing means we can't do multiple computations secondly the modus operandi since money will not come from IST or MHRD money will come from IIT Bombay because MHRD is giving us the money we had told them that we do not want any bureaucracy delay of payment and so on and we would be able to pay you in advance now whether we should pay you the entire amount in advance after which you may have to return some money if the participants are less or we should pay you an estimated total amount we make 50% we pay immediately and 50% by the when the registrations are over when the last date of registration is over the remaining 50% or whatever we calculate we send them out is that alright? so 50% of the money we can send as early as within the next month for example only thing is don't spend it before the workshop starts no because the financial freedom that we enjoy as project investors is total I have for example the same authority financial authority as the head of the department has as far as spending money from the project is concerned I don't think that is situation is same everywhere there would be governance structure so I am not worried about the money getting spend in fact you will have problems in spending that money quickly getting so many approvals is it okay to insist on some utilization certificate back from you? just as we have to give a utilization certificate we should get a utilization certificate saying that capital expenditure for this was this this this this or this money was utilized I want to make this simple because we calculate you know that per person basis so 37 rupees 50 per say you have to return me that transaction will cost 500 rupees it's not worth it besides why should I be wanting that money back I have convinced the government to give me let's say 230,000 I don't need it here so I might as well give it I will need utilization properly can I assume that internally all expenditure that you do is properly audited and so on? it is so that's okay so we will not insist on audited accounts I have to yet clarify this you must get audited account from everybody now audited account from everybody will be a mess for us from 30 people audited accounts and then plus minus this that we don't know how to handle it what is the normal practice for IST when IST gives you money does it ever ask for detailed account? yes sir they ask for accounts is it? yes that is why you were shouting at me I see sir actually based on that workshop whichever we conduct be it 5 day or 10 days a separate bank account is normally opened money is put there so that it becomes something like legal or open to everyone and what do you do? then we submit a full detailed something like that detail but what happens to the remaining balance money? balance money generally it is returned it is returned but if it is funded he doesn't believe in returning money no I would also agree that every institution sees that the account comes to the generally the institution will ensure that before sending the account all money is spent like a dinner party for all the teachers so that is okay sir coming back to the brochure and all what you are talking about that one I am having a little bit problem there as I have discussed with the Mumbai University syllabus it is more focused on C++ and when we are telling that it is computer programming we are not saying that we are saying effective teaching learning of computer programming now computer programming is also Java programming is also SQL programming so nowhere it will be mentioned that what language it is we will have to mention it but the details will be on the website when we describe the detailed program that detailed program we will describe only after the registration date closes after the registration date closes we might also extend it further in case some centers do not have sufficient registrations or whatever okay you see the point is my ambition is to run this pilot for thousand teachers and that is the reason why I am suggesting that some of you who care who have large institutions and large infrastructure if you can enthuse some other colleague to also add to yourself as a coordinator and have enough paraphernalia to run for 60 people absolutely no issue with more than a year I had originally thought that there would be one teacher for programming per college and I had thought totally there are 3000 teachers in the country I was grossly wrong the number is 10 times more 15 times more so we need to do this anyway and I will tell you something if we can do it for 1000 teachers and if that workshop succeeds the government is going to open the tab for additional 10-15 courses so next time when we do the subsequent course which is C++ object for your benefit we will say object oriented programming in the title so you will not try your thing can we invite the polytechnic lecturers those are teaching the diploma institutes because even the diploma and computer and IT as I said in an ordinary college if there is a BST IT or BST computer science and if somebody is teaching programming there I don't see how it is different to teach programming there and programming here because after trial standard some people are coming here some people are going there some people are going to diploma I don't see any significant difference in their intellectual capability the difference is only the measurement capability the numbers marks are different as long as the word science is there science or technology or management these three names are personally you see I will tell you this suppose there is a teacher who actually is teaching programming part time in some college but he is a school teacher why should he be denied this opportunity to learn what we want to involve is teachers any variety of teachers who are interested in effective teaching learning or computer programming but this is my personal opinion it is not weighted administratively by the management but then I always hold funny opinions which nobody likes I will put it this way please suggest the wordings to classify people who are eligible we are going to insist that whatever are the wordings if they are satisfied because that is what legally we are required to however if you have any additional suggestions what we will do is in exceptional cases we need a confirmation from the coordinators of the centre that they have verified the antecedents and this is ok this is good enough for us sir one point that institutional participant means the faculty who are teaching in the same institute we have some that limitation for that means number of participant in that so that we can give more chance to other participant they are coming from other college I will tell you your problem is solved your problem is solved like this if you are going to have 10 teachers participating in conducting the course then they cannot also be attending I mean you either teach or in IIT Bombay to guide a PhD student you don't have to have a PhD the rule is you should not yourself be registered for a PhD I think that should be adequate but personally I will not agree entirely with you why should I say after all my colleagues if they think that they can benefit they should also be encouraged the discretion should be left to the centre court in principle I agree with him that maximum chance should be given to you see we should always remember that we represent some of the better institutions in the country and it is our job to go out and serve the other people so to the extent that we are able to do that you can by the way you can do one thing you can permit additional people what we call sit through they will not get certificate but they can sit through the course and as a matter of fact if there are your own faculty members who eat at their homes who don't stay in your facility and who use a computer which they will ordinarily do what is the expense you have for them as long as the expense is 0 you say these are 60 people who are costed as per this there are 10 additional people from my college who are attending this no issue okay sir the government is worried about money spending government is in fact interested if all teachers like that only attend they will not be counted towards this the local staff will not be counted towards the numbers according to which this budget is computed yes very much so you can issue them sir this is a good point that you have made thanks for bringing this out what we will do is we will definitely say that we will say this to you only they need not know so if they want to register they should understand that they will not be paid T.A.D.A they will not be entitled for any accommodation that others are so if as it is they are staying outside and traveling every day to the college they should continue to do so they must not cost anything to the project but they will have the privilege of attending and getting a certificate sir in registration we put another field that you are in the same college or not so that will be very better clear to the also and the coordinator also she can make suggestions for brochure suggestions for what clauses we should try and include and any other suggestions for costing variations that you can think of but I think we can conclude here that 2,30,000 seems to be okay for conducting this workshop for 30 people and we will say if there are 60 people the cost will be 4,60,000 but there are to be 60 plus that is the point if there are less then that doubling the amount will have a problem so 30 people 2,30,000 Hariaran is going to shout at me because his figure for 1,85,000 is for 35 participants no no what I finally told him you know I said you are not paying me the money so why you bother see if I go to IST then I have to follow his rules he is not paying me I will pay more money I will pay more money I am I mean he is a nice guy but he has to follow I have requested him to revisit all those figures he said sir we have very recently worked them up again so I said very recently this man about 4 years ago before that when did you do the last review 10 years ago this is the notion of recent that time is eternal in India


Hello everybody, I'm EvilRabbit. So if you guys have been following for a while, you guys know I have a handful of wheelbases and wheels and trying to change up wheels and doing different things on my chassis Undoing it and everything like that can kind of somewhat be of a pain sometimes to undo it just to change wheelbases for different stuff That I'm doing. Well next level racing's new GT light pro is gonna help with that Set up it was very simple to set up And as you can see the reason this is going to be super awesome in my setup purposes is the utilization of being able to collapse it Pull it out put a rig on here and utilize my monitor It's on my desk by pulling it forward and having a collapsible secondary rig to save myself some space For testing other wheelbases and stuff like that. So we got to get a wheelbase put on this and we're gonna go full send So we do have our moza r5 and our FSR wheel on there and our moza pedals So you can see being able to utilize this underneath ignore my cables and Utilize the monitor. It's on my desk. Well not fully taking apart my main chassis Is something that's gonna be awesome for wheel testing and of course the hinging of The wheel bracket is nice for getting in and out We do have a shift to plate on there, but we don't have a shifter on it yet So we can just easily undo that and do it so it's super awesome for space saving So we're gonna go full send on this and give it a full rip test So with this hinging a bit of the next level, you know GT light this thing is super Nice to be able to get in and out without having to move anything and things like that So we do have the moza r5 on here and it there's a little bit of play when I do this But I don't think it's gonna be doing that this wheelbase is rated for at least 13 newton meters with a force So this is definitely super compact super nice. We do have one more stability straps that we got to put in real quick Which is just the pin Into the top piece and we'll get that lined up and through Like so put it back on and now we got our stability straps for our pedals And we got our one on the side as well. So the hinging in and out is nice We do have the shifter plate over here But we just have the my mouse on there now because we're only running twin pedals, but we are on North Schleifen ring in a Porsche So let's go full send and actually give this rig a shake down because the comfort ability this thing is Super nice being a flexible seat and everything. I thought it was gonna be you're not as comfortable. It really is But this thing is super comfortable And we are on like a set of five newton meter wheelbase But it is rated for a much higher newton meters with a force But the fact that this is super compact and I can do what I'm doing right now Without taking apart my main chassis is the biggest thing for me being able to utilize Other wheel bases for testing and stuff like that with my monitor That's currently on my desk and not having to take apart my main chassis is Super nice and the ability to do basically Hardware testing on another rig that is very very solid and super nice and comfortable is great to have a you know a Second rig that I can just fold away and roll kind of out of the way And pull out when I need to use it so next over racing with this chassis is definitely Amazing it was really simple to set up with the dials on the sides in order to fold it all together and everything like that and it's a handling This quite well. We are on full force feedback everything and I'm not noticing much play in the chassis So I've had a few Chassis before and I love my main next-level chassis because that thing is just a rock and for a collapsible chassis I'm super impressed with the ergonomics of it how Solid it is and how it feels And you know, like I said in the beginning me being able to utilize all my other wheel bases and stuff in this aspect Without having to take apart my main chassis is a big win in my books for this And that's what next level was asking me about this. I was like dude This is going to be awesome for me to do sim hardware testing and stuff like that off of my main chassis and leave my main chassis alone Without having to tear it completely apart.   I didn't know that this windshield cracked this much on this car. I don't know how I'm gonna be able to see So overall a big thank you to next level chat racing for this new Chassis and the you know simplistic design of folding it in getting it together and stuff like that and being able to fold it And move it out of the way is definitely a huge plus for me When i'm using other sim bases Uh wheel bases and stuff like that for testing purposes Like I said, can't thank them enough. This is an awesome Chassis, even if you wanted to use it as a main chassis If you're in like an apartment situation or a place where you need to be able to roll it out of the way Or a bedroom or anything like that. This would be a very good solid chassis for you This window is really messing with me. So hope you guys enjoyed this a little look at the new Chassis we're going to be going full send with this in some future episodes and stuff like that with some new hardware testing Sim hardware testing and stuff like that as well as of course We're probably Going to be throwing this thing around for drifting with some, you know Handbrakes and shifters and everything on the shifter plate to give that a full test as well So make sure you guys follow me and also for me, which found the description box below. I went to go jam into a clutch Make sure you check out all the links for the giveaway and everything that next level is also doing You know, you can get a chance to win some cool next level products yourself All of which is in the description box below. So as always, I thank you guys for coming back and watching I'm evil rabbit. I'll see you guys on the track
