All right. Well, why don't we go ahead and get started. Nice to see you all. Welcome. This is the joint action meeting hosted by your California Bicycle Coalition statewide bicycle advocacy organization here in California got quite a few members of the cow bike team on the call. So I'm just going to go ahead and introduce the folks who are joining us from the cow bike side first. And then I would love for you to just go ahead and in the chat give us your name the organization or company you're representing. And if there are any topics in particular you'd love to discuss or address today, please be sure to include that in the chat. From Cal bike today we've got our new executive director Kendra Ramsey will be introducing herself briefly. We're excited to have her on the team. We've also got Nikolai Cridler communications director here. Laura became a communication specialist. Laura's going to be providing an update on the California bike purchase incentive program. We've also got Andrew Wright, our individual giving manager is going to help manage the call and will be managing some follow ups from you all and Jared Sanchez our policy director is going to be also providing some updates and then also joining us is Steve Wallach works as a lobbyist for Cal bike periodically and he's joining from Sacramento to provide some additional commentary so great to see you all on the agenda for today. We're going to briefly introduce Kendra as I mentioned just joined the team new executive director also joining from Sacramento. Jared will provide some relevant legislative updates for those of us in the bicycle industry e-bikes micromobility a few relevant bills working their way through the legislature. He will also comment on what's happening with the state budget the active transportation program funding. And then we, I believe we have Sean from carb on the call with us and Laura, they'll be offering some updates on the states you buy purchase incentive program. We'll talk about a couple immediate action opportunities and what's coming up for Cal bike and ways that you might be able to get involved and of course we'll have plenty of time for Q&A and some discussion, any topics that you all would like to bring to the group, or discuss with with Cal bike here so let's go ahead and dive right in. I'd love to turn it over to Kendra new executive director she just joined us Kendra maybe you can briefly introduce yourself what what brings you to the organization. Great thanks Kevin. Hi everyone happy to be here and glad to see you all today. I'm Kendra Ramsey I am in Sacramento. I've been working in Sacramento for quite a few years doing most recently active transportation planning work so working with local agencies. Local coalitions, community members on planning for the networks for biking and walking of the future and writing what what's currently in the ground and is not meeting folks needs. In that room also working on policy to make it safer and easier for people to bike walk take transit do all mobility options. Prior to that I worked in state government working both in and out of state DOT on bike pad, I'm planning a design as well as at what is now known as the active transportation resource center working on technical assistance to local walking and biking programs. And got my career started in advocacy lane use and transportation about 15 years ago. So a lot of policy background I've, you know, been a been a bicyclist for transportation my whole life. I grew up in a primarily car free household in downtown Sacramento and really see bicycling walking a lot of mobility options as a key to opportunity for everyone, regardless of their background and so you know really love the increased. Availability of different modes, want to get people out there, keep people healthy and really excited to work with all of our partners on making that possible. So, yeah, that's a little bit about me and working forward to hearing the discussion today. And, you know, definitely thank you all my contact info, so feel free to reach out if there's anything in particular you'd like to discuss. I know I've connected with a few of you already so looking forward to getting to know you all better. Thank you very much. I will turn it back over to Kevin and I think Jared next. Perfect. Thank you Kendra and yes. So, next up, we've got some legislative updates from Jared pending bills, as I mentioned in the bicycle e bike, my mobility space things that we think you all should know so I'll turn it over to you Jared. So, last time we met, I think these bills we talked about a little bit to get into some of the details of them. Since we last spoke there was a new bill introduced which may be an interest and something you've all been paying attention to AB 530 to start off at the top here around the bike licensing. This is a two year bill so the first public hearing for this bill won't be here until January of next year. So there is still some kind of influence the direction of the bill right now as it stands in the text of the bill. Being authored by Tasha Warner, a member in North San Diego County is has been very concerned with a lot of the media attention and some of the tragic accidents that have occurred in her community and in Sanitas as of late and is offering as a solution to this e bike licensing. So the bill itself doesn't state what the program or what licensing will be it's more of the intention of a legislature to get underway on what licensing might look like under DMV right now as it currently stands and again this bill is expected to change drastically if move forward at all the the license would apply to folks who already do not have a driver's license and additional provision the bill which isn't as ambiguous as the rest of it which is would provide a right of prohibition of folks who are or children who are 12 under 12 years of age to operate any class of the bike one, two or three right now as many of you know current state law prohibits folks under the age of 16 operate the fastest of the bikes, but this would apply to all of them. We've been in several conversations with her, we recently released a statement, not so much directed at this bill itself, but more around the e bike backlash we've been seeing, most notably New York Times piece from maybe a month ago at this point, delivering a lot of directions and leaving out a lot of information around the benefits of e bikes have for for many folks at thinking about directions that need to be addressed including infrastructure, safety, street design and education and on top of them. Again, this bill, if we move forward won't be heard till January. And I think there's a lot of time to, again, to exert pressure and just influence on the direction of this. I was going to continue through the rest of the bills unless there's any questions feel free to interrupt me. I'm looking not at the screen of faces so just interject if you want want to know more for something out regarding that. The next bill which I don't think is as relevant but just wanted to mention it real quick, maybe 73 this is the safety stop bill which would allow of cyclists to yield that stop back and made it to a two year bill which essentially just puts off the committee hearings and the votes for moving forward.  The author, the author is a Tasha Warner who is leading the E by like this bill. She released a press statement about getting to be assessed by school safety options she has continually pushed this bill and said that the safety stop is is safer for cyclists actually so we're concerned about the direction of this bill. And seeing what she has in terms of mind of traffic safety measures and what this might look like for the next year. So just wanted to put that out there and I think it's looked into the general E by conversation. Next up is AB 413 this heading at intersections bill that we talked about last time. It's going through the legislature at the appropriations committee right now. This would allow. I think it's 15 feet of space at intersections of car free parking to allow safer intersection crossing for pedestrians, cyclists and others using the crosswalks. And some recent visions to the bill that would add some more local authority and concerns from some local agencies on this, but it's still moving forward in a strong place and, you know, follows the lead of what many other states are doing in terms of having state law on the intersections as recommended by NAC to many other advocacy and street design organizations, and we're looking forward to getting this passed and getting the governor sign it by October. The last two, it's one dimension briefly is an e bike study bill, which I mentioned last time this was, I think, first started off as an idea to restrict e bike use. We're talking with the office office is a supporter of e bikes and the use in terms of limiting the empty and of course increasing activity and those who would more accessibility for biking had turned it into a study bill so this is also in the appropriations committee. I think it'll provide a lot of useful data about religions with e bikes general best practices internationally, what other countries are doing around e bike regulations and safety. And I think we'll provide a lot of information. The board as a more conversation and focus has been on on the bike safety. The study bill I think is a couple years out so it's going to be several years until we get some data that my data Institute in as an as a state is will be the lead agency who will be leading the study. And I imagine much will change by the time the study results come out but I think we'll provide a good parameters for what we don't already have in terms of the bike data. Lastly, just want to mention AB 1447 which we weighed in heavily on and still on a neutral position. We're able to get some good amendments on this bill to bring some parody between how electric scooters are classified in state law. We can get alongside what we see in the e bike classification. There's a couple amendments that we were helped to get across in terms of limiting the speed of the scooters, the size and weight of the scooters where they share bike lanes with with bike and like built devices and but in infrastructure and able to limit the speed in which a scooter operator can, can, can, can operate on the road so it's still on that 15 miles per hour if someone is standing. But if they would legally be allowed to go up to 20 miles per hour. If the person writing is sitting on the scooter so we're still in a place of neutralness, but I thought would be relevant for this group if you're not watching already to update some of the student classification systems. And like I mentioned, bring parody to the e bike systems that have already been in place. There is some concern from some legislative folks about bringing restrictions to e bikes if this bill was to be amended. But at this point in time, it's it's in appropriations and still moving through and currently I think in a good place for, yeah, not the place to oppose it so that's the key bills that I just thought were relevant and wanted to update. But if there's other bills that you've been watching or have questions on definitely yeah wanted to save some time to talk about that. But we can move forward. If not, I have a quick question for Steve. I'm curious if you have any additional commentary on these bills or really any other kind of pending active transportation or bike or ped safety bills. What's the obvious perspective maybe what's the outlook for bills like this in general are there any trends we should be aware of anything like that. I don't have any other specific bills to add I mean just right now. We're at the legislative session where I've got about two weeks left they they're going to leave on September 14, the biggest event coming up this week is going to be the what they call suspense file hearing. The appropriations committees in both the Senate and the Assembly for all the bills that have any, basically any kind of cost. So a lot of these bills if they're still moving or on that suspense file so we'll know then, you know what what's what's going to move forward and what's what's not I think the only thing I think that maybe wasn't on the suspense file is or 13 but I can remember for sure. But that's, that's kind of where right now, as far as like bills that are like two year bills. It's difficult to get those moving, you know, particularly if they're in their first house like the license bike and I think the safety stop maybe 73 stolen in the assembly, because the way the rules are set. They have to be out of the assembly or out of the Senate out of the House of origin by the end of January. So that gives them only one month. They work on amendments during the break and hopefully have them ready to roll when they come back so it puts a lot of pressure on trying to get those bills, moving into the second house before that deadline which is a big obstacle but not insurmountable. Great. All right, thanks deep. And just a note for the group here that a little later in the meeting we do have some opportunities, or cal bike has been working to engage our own membership in taking action on some of those bills that are in the suspense file right now so and that's kind of a big deadline so one of our follow ups for you will be to help us kind of amplify and further distribute those communications and then additionally Andrew just drop the link in the chat here to Calphex legislative watch page which includes status updates on a number of other bills that that we're watching and monitoring this year. Let's go ahead and do we have any I guess questions from the group on these bills or any other legislation moving had this year. Cool hearing none. Let's go ahead and move on to our update on the statewide electric bicycle purchase incentive program. We've got on the calphex side Laura McKamey who's been really kind of our project lead on this and then also Sean ransom from California air resources board so I will turn it over to the two of you maybe Laura you can give us an overview of kind of program basics and any updates and Sean maybe you can help us understand what's the latest what to expect over the next couple months. Sounds good and there should be a slide yeah about this so this is a lot of information on this slide and Sean I just want to invite you to step in this is the most recent information I had but you may have something even more recent. I'm not going to go over all the details they haven't really changed since the last meeting. The thing that's different. I'll just, and there may be more that's different and Sean I hope you can chime in a moment and tell us if there's anything new. The big thing that's different is funding. I think we can confirm I don't know if the money has been. I think it hasn't been allocated yet but there is another 3 million. The original 10 million that the California Air Resource Board has resources board has committed to this project we I will say that as of now Cal bike has upwards of 19,000 people on our interest list. People are really interested in this we get emails all the time from people saying, here's my sob story I really need this, you know this bike is really going to change my life, and I really need this help to buy it. So I think there's a huge demand, and I think the air resource resources board has recognized that and is really stepping up retailers should be able to want to participate and manufacturers that that onboarding is starting very soon. And if you can go to the next slide, Kevin, just so. There's, I think I put it on here. Maybe it's not there's going to be a website that's it's not live yet but it will be live very soon, where you can get more information about this program. And, and that will be on cow like dot org slash ebikes. As soon as it's live. And we also noticed that carbs proposed draft funding plan includes an additional 18 million for this program so Sean ransom is a great partner at the California resources board who's been working on this Sean do you want to jump in and add any updates on you know when the soft launch is going to launch and what the timeline looks like anything else you can add. Yeah. And put pleasure to meet everyone online today here I'm Sean ransom I'm leading the California incentive project by consent to project. And thank you Laura that was a great update I was expecting to do a lot of that but the handle the majority of it thank you. And yes, all of that information is is accurate. And just, let me start with. I think there's some industry folks on the line. And I thought it might be useful to kind of go through what it's what it means to be part of the incentive project as a retailer so I just wanted to quickly mention that we are going to have an application process for retailers statewide. And this is because the retailers will actually be the ones that are inputting the voucher processing the voucher receiving the check at the end of the process so a applicant would come in and they'd have like a voucher number on their phone. And they purchased their e bike they'd receive a discount. And the retailer would provide that discount and then input the voucher information into our portal that will have available for them. And then receive a check in approximately two weeks after that process has happened. And that requires the application process retailer training as well to go through that understand the eligibility of e bikes. We're selling the e bikes and we want to make sure that they're selling e bikes that match our program criteria, which, which essentially is the three classes of e bikes front and rear integrated headlights, operable pedals and one year manufacturer on electric components so that they'll need to keep an eye out for what they're selling to these applicants. So, with that said, let me back up a little bit. And I do want to talk about our soft launch and kind of where we're at. We're actually at a really exciting time right now because we're launching our website tomorrow which is, you know, we've come a long way to develop this resource and we've decided to share it with everyone so I can drop a link in the chat and this will be live tomorrow and you'll be able to see all of our resources that we've created the application for this is just to start to get the retailers on board it. We're doing a soft launch right now so retailers will be the only ones who can go into the website and apply at this time we're not taking any. Applicants at this time for e bikes so that we've kind of had to partition some of the website off but you'll be able to get the gist of the overall website what we're putting out there and and the resources we have in mind. I also want to mention one more thing I don't think I saw in there is we've developed a safety video for applicants to to view before they're approved for their voucher so we've developed a live action video that really goes through a lot of the safety components when you're riding an e bike, going through intersections, defensive writing safe route planning, all of the things that are going to keep you safe on while you're riding in traffic, and also battery safety as well, you know, recognizing all of a lot of the media attention out there on e bike fires and things like that. So I'm going to give applicants who might be new to this process a full picture of what it means to ride an e bike take care of an e bike provide maintenance for safe riding. Let's see. And you mentioned the funding Lord thank you. You know, and I think with that, I'll stop and see if there's comments questions happy to answer those. I'm curious if you can speak to the timeline for the vendor application process. You know, the psychos live tomorrow does that mean that vendor application processes live that windows live tomorrow and just does that expire and what does that look like. So that is going to be live. We're really focusing on our first off launch we have four communities are really focusing on right now which is a an area in San Diego barrio Logan Bay Area Fresno California and we're working with some travel governments so really trying to focus in on this on those communities and then once we dial in that process of onboarding, working out the kings and the system with the application for retailers and stuff. So we're going to go statewide and we'll have some sort of press release, accompanied with that when we, when we're ready to give out the date and for the statewide launch but the soft launch is going to take about one to two months here to get all the retailers on board for the areas we're looking at we're also doing a lot of CBO outreach and engagement so really working closely with these communities to find the folks that really need these e bikes the most. In addition to the retailer onboarding process really trying to develop our outreach strategy. And methods for working with CBOs. It's kind of a new space for us here at carb and e bike so a lot of challenges new new issues that you know we haven't anticipated that we're working with. But once we do that once we kind of have that nailed down in about one to two months depending on how smoothly the soft launch goes will be ready to start that process statewide so going statewide with a full retailer. Outreach statewide and also working with CBO statewide for outreach for all of these eligible participants that we're really trying to identify and we're looking at late 2023 for the full statewide launch. Sean, can I ask a question so once the site goes live tomorrow and retailers can sign up. It's not just for the soft launch but you'll be accepting applications from retailers statewide is that correct. That's correct yeah. Okay, so that process the whole statewide process can start even though the first round of incentives will just go to the soft launch areas. Correct, yes. And you mentioned the safety video is that going to be available once the website goes live that anyone can watch that training video that in it's not ready right now so okay we're expecting a couple more weeks we're putting the finishing touches on it so. And is that something where, if somebody wants to apply for the program. Obviously they can't apply yet could they once the safety videos live could they pre qualify themselves with that put that can they do that part in advance, or do they have to wait till they're in the middle of the application process to do it. Yes, it will be available on the website and so it through in the application process it's essentially a check box that you've watched the video. Okay, so they could do it ahead of time. Okay, thank you. Just a quick question about the application process so when the recipient goes to the vendor and has their voucher number on the phone that is already pre approved the vendor doesn't have to qualify them in any way shape or form. Correct. Yeah, so our administrator pedal ahead will have checked all the boxes for them applications complete income verification proof of residency they watch the safety video. And then they'll get that approval email on their phone. Go ahead. I was just going to mention that we also have paper applications available to. For this project. It's great. And from the vendor side, are you approving the vendor, or are you also approving bicycle models or how does that kind of what is that going to look like. Yeah. So yeah retailers will will need to be approved in order to process the vouchers. And then for e bike models what we're really looking at is the online my models we are allowing online. Companies to participate in this program provided that they either have manufacturing in California some presence in a storefront in California or a corporate office. If they do meet one of those criteria than they can sell their e bike online will allow people to buy online bikes. But we're looking a lot more closely at those bikes. Just because we know that the. There's a lot of opportunity to kind of. You know, bring in bikes that well, they'll have to meet the eligibility criteria, and we really want people to buy quality bikes here we don't want. You know, someone kind of setting up shop that selling e bikes out of a cargo container in their driveway or something to that effect. But yet they still meet the eligibility so really just trying to keep an eye on the quality of the e bike and the reseller as well. So that's what we have in place right now. So just to follow up on that question Sean if, if somebody walks into an approved retailer. They wouldn't have a list of qualifying bikes. They would just need to compare the bikes that they have in stock to the qualifying criteria and and and the retailers kind of responsible for making sure that they're selling a qualified bike. Correct. Yeah. Great. Thank you all did we have any other questions from the group for Sean or Laura about the electric bicycle purchase incentives program. Yeah, one question. This is Steve Wallach on the funding for the future that says the 2324 may have is proposed 18 million. Is that part of the air boards. You know, they're they're low carbon transportation program equipped funding proposal. Sorry, cut out Steve just for a second. I was curious about the 18 million if that's part of the funding plan that goes to the airport. I think pretty soon, or is that going to be part of the budget next year. Correct. Yeah. So we are actually work grouping the 18 million right now. And that will go to the board in November. And I'm not sure if it's going to be folded into the statewide launch this year, or if it might be for another funding window next year. We, we're just not sure at this point, but yeah. That's good answers my question whether it's part of this year's round so you have over 20 million, almost 30 million, or it's going to be the future fiscal year. Thanks. Yeah. Great. Any additional questions. No, all right, Jared, do we still have you on the call I realized that we skipped over a brief section about kind of budget and administrative action. And here, and actually, the one part of that was what Steve just just asked about this new funding that I think we're happy about we were advocating for 50 million from the state budget. Yeah, a large part of funding just for low carbon incentives. And yeah, definitely for for more funds this round and for next round is see huge demands. So just wanted to mention that base and then the other piece was around our big campaign to get more money in the state budget around complete street infrastructure in particular. Of course, the interpretation program is already a long standing program that receives a lot of funds. It's not expected to increase in the next year that we didn't get any additional funds for bike and walk improvements. It's still open for multi-year campaign multi-year ask for us as including legislation, the three years around funding infrastructure issues. So just wanted to mention that on the budget that was passed back in June and July. Great. All right. Well, do we have any other at this point we've kind of got an opportunity for topics from the group. If anyone has other pending bills or legislations questions about the E bike program or other state bicycle pedestrian active programs, other general topics of interest cow bike has been doing a fair amount of work recently around some of the kind of exploding concern around safety and education for e bikes. We'd be more than happy to discuss that with any of you if you're interested feel like we could talk about it for hours. Well, doesn't look like we've got any hands raised. So I'm going to move move us right into head into a couple of immediate opportunities for action here. Jared had mentioned earlier and as did Steve that we have we do have a couple bills that we've been monitoring this year that are on the suspense file. So we do have kind of a slate of actions that we've been pushing out to our own members and networks. We would love to call upon you all to help us amplify that messaging get the word out a little bit further. So when we do send out follow up emails will be sure to include a link, which includes, you know, our landing page for those actions. If you're able to distribute that to your own networks, employee newsletters anyone that you think might be willing to get engaged on that, we would most certainly appreciate the support there as a communications partner. And then we do have a couple of immediate bigger opportunities to plug in. Of course we have the joint action meeting series here our goals to run this call three or four times a year, keep you all in the loop as to what's happening in the California legislature and with statewide programs. So of course, you know, if you can share this event, invite other colleagues of yours, be here and contribute your perspective we certainly do want to hear from you that helps us kind of understand what's happening in the in the business community and how we can take that information and use that to shape our strategy in California. We do have a couple of immediate opportunities, we are going to be calling on you all to contribute with your dollars and communication support. We're here to join our annual business membership program that comes with some year round recognition benefits connection to the cal bike team opportunity to really, like I said, have your perspective heard and represented in Sacramento. As I mentioned, we would love for you to amplify a cal bike action share our petitions and targeted actions with your audience and community. And in the immediate next year here we do have a couple of great opportunities to sponsor cal bike campaigns and events. In particular around the California Bicycle Summit which will be happening in April 2024 in San Diego. Great event three day professional conference that pulls together bike advocates transportation officials. And that's a couple days of workshops presentations social events bike tours we would love to have you there. And my missing anything. Nikolai Laura Jared, immediate opportunities other ways to collaborate Andrew is including a couple of links here in the chat for you, which will direct you to our business member program and the 2024 summit. Do we want to mention the complete street survey. It's not out yet, but we'll be soon. That's, that's another action. Jared, could you do a quick summary of that for us. Yeah, so as part of our history of advocating for complete streets. Well, trans has updated their internal policy around implementation of complete streets in the last couple years. We want to do a report on accountability for it really about how much has changed in the last couple years since that policy is passed. So part of that work we're releasing a survey out to our members and generally to the public to assess how comfortable they feel how much they access the state highways in their communities that act as main streets. We have run through a lot of their neighborhoods that couch and owns and operates. And we'd love to have complete streets infrastructure on so we're going to release that I think the next month. And yeah, we'd love to give you all and others to circulate that ticket as many responses we can to get information to couch and also to support our work and make sure we get complete streets on our state highway system. Great. Thank you, Jared. All right, any other topics questions from the group questions comments before we start to wrap up. Okay, great. Well, thank you all so much. We will be sending some follow ups to you all with the meeting recording from today.


Alright, punishment is the process of punisher's being applied contingently on a behavior consistently and immediately once they are elicited or revoked. Really? I thought a punishment was the things that you eat after dinner. Oh boy. Yeah, so that was a decent definition, wasn't it? It was actually a great definition. I'm going to reinforce you, so negatively. Thank you. It's awful. Alright.


Nuclear science provides a unique lens into the health of our vast oceans. Nuclear and isotopic techniques are revealing the truth about what's really happening in these complex, vital marine ecosystems. We can find the sources of pollution, trace contaminants through living organisms and up the future and gain incredible insights into the effects of climate change today and in the future. For six decades, scientists at a very special facility in Monaco have been working to unlock the ocean's secrets. The IAEA's environmental laboratories have been at the forefront of ocean research since 1961, gathering valuable insights into the least known and arguably most important ecosystems on our planet. The laboratories were first set up in Monaco's renowned oceanographic museum to monitor radioactive pollution. Monaco and its rulers have a strong connection with oceanography and have supported the labs since they first opened. For the decades, the labs have expanded their scope as other threats have emerged, from plastic pollution to ocean acidification. Their cutting-edge work supports countries in the conservation of the ocean. Marine radioactivity remains a key issue. The facility plays a prominent role in checking samples of fish, seawater and sediment from places like Fukushima following the 2011 accident. Back in Monaco, the scientists are also looking at other contaminants like mercury, which can enter the food chain and affect the safety of our seafood. A big focus for modern marine experts is plastics research. The ocean laboratories are examining this huge issue from many angles. The data they gather is helping us understand how much plastic is actually in the ocean, where it comes from and what happens to it as it degrades. CO traces can show how tiny plastic particles move through the body of a fish and even inside models of the human digestive system. Alongside pollution, the labs are examining how climate change is threatening the fragile balance of our seas. The ocean absorbs a quarter of all the CO2 that is emitted. The resulting acidification is corroding fragile marine life and scientists here are determined to find out exactly how big of an issue this is. Over the years, the labs have undertaken multiple international research expeditions, including a trip to the Arctic with the Prince of Monaco, which retraced the journey of his great-great-grandfather from 100 years before. During this expedition, they compared carbon from new samples with shells the old Prince had collected to build a historical archive for climate. All of these studies are providing scientific data that can be published and shared. Countries are using these indisputable facts to make the most effective policies to protect their coasts and seas. Alongside research, IAEA scientists are working out new methods that are used to improve marine science globally, as well as creating vital reference materials to ensure that laboratories worldwide get consistent results. The work of the IAEA Environmental Laboratories in Monaco is unique. For 60 years, these labs have been helping countries confront marine pollution, seafood safety and other emerging challenges. We have been helping countries with their own laboratories. We are helping them achieve their own sustainable development goals. Over 60 years, the IAEA Marine Laboratories have promoted international cooperation on ocean research and conservation. And though much has changed over the years, the key elements remain. As well as pushing the boundaries of ocean research, the labs have always been leaders in expanding the frontiers for women in science. And the labs have always remained hubs of scientific excellence, staffed by people who care deeply about the oceans, with the goal of protecting our incredible underwater world for generations to come.


Welcome to Drinks Made Easy. Today we're taking a look at the Barbados Surprise. A drink that's a surprise because only this gal knew about it who gave it to this guy and it looks surprisingly like this drink and this drink but it's a little bit different. To build the Barbados Surprise you'll start with half an ounce of grenadine that you're going to pour just straight down into the glass. Next we're going to add ice. You can use a spoon to try and not splash the grenadine all over the place when you're first adding in your first few pieces. Next we're going to eyeball filling it up with about three quarters of the way with orange juice. Next we're going to take one and a half ounces of rum and a half ounce of blue curacao and add them to the same vessel and either stir or agitate until they're integrated. Pour that on top. Now we're cutting the blue curacao with the rum so that it will layer on top of the orange juice. Blue curacao on its own is very heavy and would sink right through the orange juice.

What's up guys welcome back to this first one we're gonna do a 12 by 16 and all blues and it's gonna be awesome So let's get into it. Okay All right, here we go. Let's uh, let's do all blues here. We go start off with this blue We'll go with the dark blue next We'll go with a light blue light blue there We'll go with what is this is a blue neon. Oh neon blue.  Okay Here we go. Let's do its thing here A little bit more. All right, here we go. Let's get it final result looks something like this. Look at that Yeah, let's go. I like that That's a pretty good one 12 by 16 Some ocean vibes. Hope you like it. I like it. Let's go


So I made a stats on Facebook the other day about how people always come up to me and be like hey, man What's your favorite TV series? But you'll never get someone coming up to you and saying your man. What's your favorite book, son?  Chasing pleasure and forgetting all about fulfillment forgetting about knowledge, right? You see I used to be one of these people that back in the day I used to play hundreds and hundreds of hours of video games like Elder Scrolls for oblivion RuneScape I used to really enjoy that that used to be my thing. I wouldn't mind spending eight hours a day Just consumed in the video game, but these days I can't even Spend 30 minutes maybe joking. I can't spend 30 minutes playing any game because the gimmick is gone Amusement's gone. It says if like You kind of see the game for a trillion years, which is almost a waste of time I'm not saying you shouldn't play video games if you enjoy them or if you shouldn't watch TV if you enjoy watching TV You should be able to watch all your favorite shows like Game of Thrones, you know walking dead, whatever But you should never allow the you know consumption of this media to Take up the majority of your time you should this should not be your main priority in life Watching these TV shows or playing these video games should be out there on the pursuit of knowledge, right? Knowledge it should be out there Trying to learn about maybe Marcus Aurelius about, you know, the Epicureans And stuff like that philosophy how to make money. How does the world really work? Why are these, you know Guys in Syria doing what they're doing What's going on really?  They Called up heaps and heaps of technicians hundreds of technicians offering Money for her because of the problem people tried all sorts of different things that I learned from the University and One on what they learned from school what they learned from the experience and no one could fix it But they called this one old man who had been working at the factory Where this machine was established for about 30 or 40 years He walked over to a particular boat and tapped it three times and the machine started working so He asked for a million dollars, but the person said what should I give you million dollars all you did was three taps The guy replied is because I had a knowledge to fix this the other people did not have So if you have knowledge people will pay for it. That's the gist of the story. So go get that knowledge People that know things are who make the world run peace


Our sixth presenter is Suzy Lee, whose title is Adopting Smart Neighborhood Surfaces as Critical to Climate Change, Human Health and Social Equity. Did you know we're losing our Greenland to more and more pavement every year? On average, almost 70% of our cities are paved now. As a result, increasingly, cities are facing extreme urban heat and flooding problems. With around 1,300 heat-related deaths in the U.S. every year, and over 4.3 million losses for homes due to flooding damage. Now, it might say getting more paved surface like streets and sidewalks is inevitable for urban growth, but are there smarter choices for urban development? Luckily, there are. If people start to pay more attention to the surface reflectivity and permeability, reflectivity is largely related to the color of the surface. Low reflectivity causes more solar heat to be absorbed, leads to an increase in surface and air temperature, which results in an increase in surrounding building air conditioning load powered by the polluting power plants, which is a major contribution to climate change. And this increase in temperature is consistent with the lack of tree coverage in those red-lined neighborhoods as shown on the map indicating social inequity. On the other hand, low permeability leads to an increase in stormwater runoff causes water contamination and human health issues. So, by choosing a smarter surface choice, those errors on the top can be flipped into reductions. But current data on city surface performance is not easily accessible or comparable. Most research have been focusing on either one type of the surface or one aspect of this issue, heat or water. But they should be considered both simultaneously. So to fill this gap, I've developed a smart surface taxonomy with performance indicators in surface temperature, rainwater retention, and carbon reduction. There are 50 types of surface in the smart surface taxonomy covers three categories, roofs, streets and sidewalks, and parking lots, ranging from traditional black and pervious to light colored or green surface with various levels of permeability. So let's take, look at the roof category. The green roof on this bar chart is 80 degrees cooler than the conventional black roof on a hot summer day. And like I said before, this difference in temperature is showing a strong correlation with the lack of tree coverage in the communities of color. So there are smarter ways for the cities to grow and become more equitable. The question is, why are the policy makers still acting so slow on adopting these strategies? That's because most decisions are made economically driven instead of sustainability. So in this research, a decision making dashboard will be developed to help them to evaluate some other potential benefits like health benefits or flooding cost reduction so that more informed decisions on city surface choices can be made to help mitigate climate change and improve human health and social equity. Thank you.


Willards loses his man, but was running away from goal, so he couldn't take advantage of it. Rogers gets free, tries to get inside, oh and he dumps it right underneath, but somehow Lombardo not able to get that one to go. That's two golden chances. But Sam Ross got a stick on that. Yeah, Sam Ross definitely got on that, and so credit Sam Ross, but it's two golden opportunities.


Okay. Go ahead and introduce yourself. My name is Claudia Petter. I'm currently in the fall of 2014. I will be attending New Mexico Tech. So, how was your experience with the New Mexico App Store? Actually, it was really awesome. I did my research in the solar power section of EPSCORP. And with the help of Victoria, I think she was a backbone to everything that we did. With the help of her, everything went smoothly. She guided us through all our research and she made sure that we were efficient and we always had something to do every single day, even when we were waiting for our compounds to be synthesized. We were looking up research papers or data. I found that through this experience, I'm better prepared to go into a research field career because now I know what to expect and how to gather my information, look through journals. And it was all thanks to Victoria. And how did you hear about this program? So, I heard about EPSCORP through one of my professors at UNM Valencia campus. Her name is Dr. Terry. She sent me the email that she came across, I believe. So, I heard through her and I was actually her chemistry tutor. Would you recommend this internship to anyone? I would definitely recommend it. It's definitely, if you're going to be a chemist or do any kind of research, you need to get yourself in a summer program, an internship that prepares you for that so that you are able to do your research, you know where to go, you know what to do. Because research is a lot of waiting and a trial and error. So, in our case, there was a lot of stuff that was not working. So, we had to keep going and searching for more journals to see what was out there that was published, that was working for other people, and so that we can duplicate their studies. It's definitely not something that you learn at school. So, you would have to do an internship at EPSCORP was just amazing. Because it is well funded and we had access to all the instruments that we needed for our research and we actually got new instruments because of the EPSCORP grant. Any additional comments? No, I'm very, very grateful and I feel very blessed that I was able to participate in this internship because the knowledge that I have gathered in the summer, I can't imagine where else I would have gained so much knowledge of what it is to do research, actual research. So, I just want to thank EPSCORP for it.


This is gameplay from their stress test that they ended up opening it up to absolutely everyone and hopefully we'll see them do that again soon so more people can get in and play this game. I wasn't playing with anyone this time so I narrated throughout and I'll explain the abilities as I go. I ended up in the jungle this time, however I was expected to be offline so I don't have the jungle smite item called a mark and that makes things a little bit difficult. Like and subscribe and all that crap if you want to but for now let's get into the game. I'm going to start on blue but I don't think it really benefits Talos that much, the mana regen because he has a stamina bar instead of a mana bar. I mean I'm still going to take the blue, I hope Aron helps me out here.  So yeah I think blue buff gives you mana regen, it used to be that mana regen affected Talos' stamina bar but a certain homo avian was abusing that during testing so they changed it. Running around with Talos just spamming abilities like no tomorrow because I had crazy mana regen on him which was making his stamina bar barely move when using abilities. So we got the blue buff, let's go over here and take one of these camps. Talos, he kind of plays like crunch, he doesn't have like the combo abilities but what he does have is a lot of his abilities if you hit the first one you can hit the second one. So I just used his Q which is just an AoE sweep of his axe but if you hit the first one then you can activate it again to hit a second one. His E is the same way like you hit it the first time and it's a stun and if you actually hit the target with the stun then you can activate it a second time for a knock up. So he ends up playing like crunch in the sense that I don't know if I can take these guys.  So like I was saying so he plays like crunch in the sense that you use an ability then auto attack, use an ability, auto attack, use an ability, auto attack, you're just weaving auto attacks into abilities. That's the way I used to play crunch, that's the way you get the most effect out of him by canceling your auto attacks into abilities. So that's the way I play Talos and alright so Malaya has marked me, that's what you see the monster energy drink symbol over my head. But usually on any other jungler I wouldn't have had a back right there but I've taken so much damage already so let's take the Chonker here. This is a leftover from Paragon Asset, it will be replaced eventually but this is the only one that you see in the game.  It's got a massive range on it and it applies a bleed which is really nice. His F which is his ultimate ability, you just kind of leap into a fight and deal damage and I think it regens your stamina. His risk reward, his right click ability, it gives you decreased stamina cost and increased damage but at the end of that you're slowed significantly. Oh man they got a Leia in lane against our Oron. Leia is an insanely good laner, she's usually taken into the jungle but she's a really good laner and I can't, I should probably mess with her so she doesn't get ahead here. I just hope this Malaya doesn't jump on me out of nowhere. Talos is a pretty good counter to Malaya because she can negate crowd control but since he has two forms of it, I don't think she sees me. Did she see me? I don't know if the minions can even see me. Well I mean, if she comes out then we know, Oron's kind of baiting her a little bit.   But like a stunter, hit her with a basic, knocked her up, hit her with a basic and then hit her with the bleed, I thought she was going to die but yeah I'm just not strong enough yet. She's not leaving though, maybe I could circle around through the ice dragon layer here, the ice wyvern, wyvern and if she doesn't see me I might be able to get her. I know it seems like I'm bullying her but I really don't want this Leah to get ahead in lane. Like as you can see she's healing up off the minions with her E ability and that's what makes her such a good laner. She has really good sustain and she has a good escape with her R which her R functions like Sarath's old ability where she would ascend, I think that's what it was called. Oh she's backing. She's backing, she don't see me, okay I hit her with the R, yeah that thing has massive range and she's dead. Gang successful. Now I don't know where Ron went but hopefully he'll come back to this lane since he's not here to help myself with these lane minions. Yet people are always taken off guard by the range of his bleed. That sucker goes forever. Get some boots when we get back. I'm pretty much just sticking with the suggested item builds. These are recommended by testers, like the testers built they're recommended so they're actually pretty good. Skip your camp here. Just keep clearing and keep, yeah, like I don't even need the, it's seven minutes into the game and I don't really even need the mark anymore so it would still be nice to have especially for the smite ability on it so okay this guy's the jungle buff if I kill him I get a shield and I believe health regen. So yeah I'm just using all of my abilities to clear these camps because why not I've got a stamina bar it regens it's not like I'm wasting mana so I can just keep clearing as long as I have health I can keep clearing which if I had a jungle mark I would have all the health that I needed. I've got Noxus on Noxus's action in the middle I'll try and get her in a bet just keep clearing the jungle and getting more stronger. I don't know why Malaya marked me.


What is going on guys? Today I am back with another Destiny 2 video and today I bring you 5 things Destiny 2 seriously needs but before we get into that do you guys want to win some loot? If so drop a like on the video and leave a comment down below. Okay so Destiny 2 is a great great game don't get me wrong but it still has its problems not as many as the first game had but still there are things within this game or not within the game that need to be added or changed to make the longevity of the game a little more substantial. Yes for sure there are many many things to do but the core system of the game in my opinion offers less than the first did in its last year. Yes for sure that's understandable as the game is less than a month old but the way players of the franchise grew on the game Bungie surely would have known that content was going to dry up really quickly. Now there is an argument where people state this game has turned into a game for casuals which is meant to meet their needs when in fact it used to be a game for hardcore grinders but now of such are left being bored after the first few weeks. Yes both sides put up a great argument but there are still things that can be changed and added which will benefit both sides of this player fanbase. Today my opinion these five changes would definitely help the cause.  There 1000% needs to be more things incorporated into the game in which we can spend our shards on. Now ideas of what shards can be spent on are in the hundreds problem is in Bungie allowing us to stack shards the way they have whatever they do incorporate into the game for us to spend these shards on. We will basically be fully loaded already so it's going to be a hard incorporation but in the long run I do believe it's what is needed for the game. Next up is the issue with strikes being basically irrelevant. There is actually no reason at all to grind them, no reason at all to even play them, no exclusive loot, no great rewards. There are basically pointless additions not really needed. In Destiny 1 there were loads more strikes which offered exclusive loot. Even though most of it was pretty bad it was still there for people to play for. In Destiny 2 strikes are one of the most irrelevant parts of the game in my opinion and in a close second are Lost Sectors. I remember Brunchy stating before the game's release that Lost Sectors would be new things to explore and find things and eliminate bosses in some kind of mini red light puzzles and activities and ways to earn fresh new great loot when in fact Lost Sectors are a complete waste of time. There are for no puzzles at all, no challenge at all and no loot worth going into them for. Even if they added like a bigger token reward with the added difficulty of enemies within the cave and then cooldowns on the actual Lost Sector chests that would do. But the fact that we're going to these Lost Sectors run through all enemies, defeat the boss within these caves within milliseconds and then open a chest which gives us basically nothing we need is another pointless addition to the game in my opinion. Next up we have the lack of weapons obtainable in the game. Now the reason I'm saying lack of weapons even though they're quite a lot obtainable in the game they feel lackluster due to the fixed rolls and this is a problem many thought would be the case if there wasn't a huge arsenal of weapons obtainable in the game. Now while there are a few it's far from a large arsenal and the fact weapons have fixed rolls make it feel like there's even less. Weapons in Destiny 1 did not have fixed rolls so the variation of different rolls on a single weapon was crazy. A roll determined the weapon and that was fun in itself. It added a whole different grind to the game one grind for the weapon and another grind for that perfect roll. So although the weapon numbers in both games ain't very high in Destiny 1 there seem to be thousands more just because rolls were not fixed. Now in Destiny 2 we don't even have to lock at a weapons rolls before we delete it as we know exactly what they are going to be. Once you get a weapon dropped for the second time you never have to look back and this also adds to the problem with your shark collection. Fixing rolls in Destiny 2 might have made things easier for Bungie and the game developers on nerfing and buffing things but as a player and a lover of the franchise in my opinion it was a poor decision. The addition of more weapons even if they are reskins with different perks and so forth are definitely needed. Okay so next up is an issue many people have included myself and that's being forced into playing PvP modes you don't want to play. There are obviously two playlists competitive and casual play. The problem is a casual player who wants to play the game casually will want to play the game of their choice.  I play casual most of the time for control. When that happens I normally get 10 games of supremacy in a roll which is just not fun to me. If I wanted to chase orbs I would like to pick that game mode and go and chase orbs. If I want to capture points and defend points it seems as though I still have to chase orbs and that in my opinion is a problem. I know Bungie did state that mixed playlists and 4v4 modes are easier on their servers which can turn help connection and stability in games but in my opinion and I'm sorry but that is definitely not the case connections to me seem no better than what they were in Destiny 1 and although I do quite enjoy 4v4 I seriously don't see the benefits it's supposed to have brought with it but yeah the point of playing PvP at the moment to me is to have fun.  Adding the choice of game modes in my opinion is their must and actually think it's something Bungie may add in the near future. Okay so the last thing I feel needs to be added in the game is some sort of ranking system within PvP. PvP at the moment is well after about three games for the average player boring and pointless. There needs to be something in place which entices players who ain't real big fans of PvP into playing this side of the game. PvP after about a month or so is where a lot of PvE players look to go into when PvE content starts to dry up but we need a reason to play it. The crappy end of game rewards just ain't enough and if I'm going to run into sweats each and every game I want something to play for a ranking system would do just fine. Giving people ranks to build and progress towards would add a whole new level of fun to PvP. It's what's fun about most of the multiplayer games people love to rank up and chase that type of rank. Even if the rewards for ranking are limited to basically like an emblem or something like that at least it's something for us to play for as in my opinion after a few games of PvP it becomes seriously pointless and boring. Ranking systems in card battlefield and Overwatch are all great additions people love. It surprises me how Bungie can't see this it seriously does. Now the worst thing about the five things I've mentioned in this video is the one thing I want to see most and that being a ranking system in my opinion is the least likely to happen and I don't understand why. It's 2017 not 1997 something like this shouldn't be an issue incorporating into the game. A simple little icon on number next to your name in PvP would do just fine and on that note guys we have come to the end of the video and these were five things I feel need to be added or changed within Destiny 2. I hope you enjoyed your time here if so leaving a like really does help me out. If you're new around here and enjoy daily Destiny videos be sure to subscribe and hopefully people I will see you on that next one.


Welcome to the Torrey M off show presented by Buffalo Wildlings. I'm Sam Murray joined now a Stevenson women's ice hockey head coach Torrey M off and coach end of a regular season successful season 11 wins on the year Mac title you go undefeated in the Mac Quite a few players named to the all Mac conference teams before we talk about the playoff game that you have on Saturday Just kind of talk about the season as a whole that's led you to this point. Yeah, we're really excited, you know to have four wins in a row. It's really good for us. We definitely needed that going into playoffs. We've had so many ups and downs, but our team has just stayed constant. You know, we've worked hard through the highs and we worked hard through the lows and I think it's really what has allowed us to be in this position right now. I know you've got the chance to talk about them in your post game interviews, but you have five seniors on the scene. Just talk about what they've meant to this program. I could talk about them for days. They are the best group I've said it a million times, but they welcomed, you know, me and our assistant Megan Alexander in with open arms. They have responded to some of the changes they've made. They've also been appreciative of, you know, some of the things that we've kept around that our traditions and kind of what our culture has been developing as not just this season, but you know, since the program has started in 2012. So the seniors made all of this possible. This season would not have gone as smooth without them. Nothing would have been the same without them. And, you know, we're we're really sad to lose this class. But we're really grateful that they had such huge impact. And, you know, we want them to know that they mean so much to us and without them is would not be the same season. More hockey left to play. You see a quarterfinal at Newman on Saturday. You lost to them earlier in the year, a tie, a late tie, you know, late in the year at home. Talk about this matchup. Yeah, I mean, this is a huge moment for revenge for us. We felt like the last game we played was our was our moment to kind of secure the win. And we're pretty salty about, you know, that that late tie with about a minute and 30 left. And we we have a chip on our shoulder. When we have a chip on our shoulder, we usually rise to the occasion. So I'm expecting that that's going to happen. And, you know, they're going to work as hard as they can to secure this W. So we're looking forward to it. We're excited. Well, coach wish you the best of luck on Saturday and moving forward throughout playoffs. Thank you for head coach Tori M off. I'm Sam Murray. And this has been the Tori M off show.


He's got my answer, watch. It's not a film I ever call any dude. He ain't gonna answer. Come on! Did you supposed to text first? Really?  You good? I'm gonna call you. Oh, wait. Hello? Hey! Oh, how you doing? Good, this is Shannon Boudram. Oh, nice to meet you. Nice to meet you too. And... Oh, what's up, man? Timothy DeLaGhetto here. Oh, what's up, man? What's up, bro? Me, I don't know why. I don't know how. I feel like I do the right things. But I just always end up there. Okay, this girl I was talking to a couple months ago. I mean, I still talk to her, but I'm just a friend of hers. It started off in another year. We was FaceTime and maybe six hours a night. Oh, damn. We was... terms... You spent the night and what happened on those nights? Y'all have sex? No. Oh, interesting. Did you guys cuddle or you just... How did it go down?  I was like, okay, that's cool, that's fine. Shit, right now, I just want to be free. And I was like... Do you wear deodorant? Because I'm trying to make sense of it because I feel like if they FaceTime and they did it plenty of times, that means she found them attractive. You know what I'm saying? They kicked it. Well, you swiped. That means that the interaction was there. Yeah, it's like if they FaceTime for a long time, that means they communicated. Shit was cool. So I feel like it had to be something in person that threw it off. You know what I'm saying? I feel like there's no... Where is the... Where is the yin to the yang? You know what I mean? Like, where are you giving a little bit of pushback or tension or discomfort? Because at the end of the day, like we don't value things that come too easy. So where did you make yourself a little bit less available or hard to please in some kind of way? For women as well too, like there has to be...  If you're saying you can't be too nice to girls sometimes and that's facts. That is facts. That's not girls though, it's everybody. People always tell me I'm too nice to girls but I never take it so far. Man, look. I mean, here's the thing. I learned this a long time ago and sometimes...  Is she attractive?  You know what I'm saying?  There's nothing really new here. Like sometimes they want to challenge too, you know? Has this happened before where people have told you you're too nice to a girl and that's what messed it up? Yes, absolutely. See, I'm gonna intervene. I don't think it's too nice. I think it's too inauthentic. What does that mean? Because nobody is perfect. I said this before everybody needs a balance of the yin and the yang. So I don't think it's a female thing in my partnership. For example, I'll tell my partner in one breath. Like I think you're so beautiful in the next. I'm like trim your nose hair because I'm aware that that balance has to exist where it's not all praise. Like the only place which is a kind of unfortunate is in the school system where teachers prefer kids who don't have imagination who listen who do as they're told that's because they have motherfucking 80 students.  We want a best friend who tells us what's real. We want somebody and that's what I mean about because nothing is perfect. So if you're always being nice, you're not being real. Okay, that makes sense. But this is but he's only been on two days with her. This is when you suppose for six hours. Yeah. The time that you said in there. Wait, what? Huh? It's more than two days. It's more than two days. But I mean this thing for like three months. Damn. We're getting something. What happened? What happened? I feel like it came too easy. There was no pushback and people don't feel like they can grow into their best self. Speaking of somebody who don't challenge. Speaking of coming too easy. Did you guys have sex? No. Never in three months? No. Damn. So that's okay. That's some people's rules. I don't know, man. Some people have a three month rule. That sounds crazy.  She didn't even written like that. That sounds like a made up excuse. As much as people say that they want the nice person or the easy going person and don't get me wrong. It should be like 80, 20. 80% agreeableness, cool.  I'm gonna be honest because there's probably some things about this person that's not perfect. Don't be afraid to call him out on it. Did you go down on her? Damn. Was it, were you, are you good at it? That's always debatable though. But then what? Ugh. You know what? Then you're better off without her, bro. That's the end of the story. But we're not talking about just her. She is the Y factor, the X. Right, right, right. And Y keeps coming up with the same variable. Okay. What is the variable? Cause I'm trying to figure it out because like, okay, well first of all, be glad you're not with her anymore because you don't need to be dealing with a girl that don't give a head, all right? Like that's, that's. That's not to say that she doesn't but she didn't feel compelled. I don't think there was enough seduction there. And everyone's seduction style is different. Even if you're not having sex, she has to want to have sex with you. She has to picture that. You know what I'm saying? Cause like, they always say it's impossible to get out of the friend zone, but I feel like that's not true.  Then you can get yourself out of the friend zone. But I feel like with this dude, what happened where she was like, I'm not even trying to try that out. It was three months of kissing, cuddling. He ate her coochie, licking.  Like what went wrong? You know, I feel like I'm not curious at all. I think that there just needs to be a bit more of assertiveness.  And they have to think your time is valuable.  There's a balance to be played with gaming and being real. No, that's totally facts. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I agree. I agree. So you got to create that lineup.  We only let in certain people here, not just everybody with a fake ID can just waltz right in and we don't give up free drink tickets.  Don't be too accessible. I get that. I get that. I get that. And that was after how long? Yeah, we should also acknowledge that being friend zoned is a compliment because you could be ghosted. So what they're saying is that we like quality and character risks about you. We feel you agreeable. We enjoy being around you. We just don't feel any seductive. Man, no, but I feel like after six months because when people think of friends on then that's not friends on you. That's just breaking up with you, man. A lot of dudes are not comfortable with male friends. So that may have been a requirement of the new. Yeah, true. It's a bad dude, but that's the kind of a dude who's making demands, right?  I mean, that's true. I mean, I'm cool with everybody I've dealt with in the past. Even Klondike girl? Klondike girl, we're cool. We're not. I don't even call it. We don't kick it, but we're cool. That's how I was introduced to Tim, by the way, that video. So it's in my mind forever. That's my first ever watched of yours. The Klondike video. Why? I don't know. It just popped up on my ex-workie. Okay.  What was your first Tim video? Oh, that's my video. You don't watch your videos? You don't put him in that position? No, he wrote me and said, I'm such a big fan of Tim. Oh, get out of here. He's nervous right now. Shit, man. See, this is exactly what's going on, Damon. You're not performing on the spot. You got to be there. If you are called into action, you got to spring up and you're from the military. You know this. Make something up right now. Tim talks about booty all the time. Just say the booty one. I don't know. I feel like success is pretty. The qualities for success are oddly similar in all fields. Would you agree with that? That makes sense. That what you do to be successful in your career does somewhat apply to your relationship. No, totally. Yeah. So you're wrong again. All right, Damon. Thank you so much for being like dope and forthcoming and honest. This was awesome. And I will let you know when this comes out. But be great. I have a video on my full-screen show, which is really about the two nice guy problem that you should check out. Next week, I'm going to take some friends to this really cool place. It's a jazz club. Oh my God, I love jazz. It's so cool. Some nights they do salsa like the... I love salsa as well too. And I love jazz. Are you into that genre of kingdoms and kings and knights and queens? Are you? Not first. Yeah, me neither. What are your like your biggest pet peeves?  I guess I don't like that. I agree, yeah. Or like, you know, dramatic. Yeah, I agree with that too. I don't like that.  I feel the exact same way. I actually think those are my top three as well too. Right. Yeah. As the saying goes, if you don't ask, you won't receive. So let me be very clear about what I'm asking you guys to do.

Okay, to tanza po, but Breezy is nili kwa fanoa Chris Brown ki tambo and before, I used to be someone who is in music so, I'm a professional DJ, so nilingi ya DJ nika jo, 2 DJ, Joe Breezy, 2-5-4 Oni lewa, ni kuna drop, minda kuskumi ya? Na lahu nili kaha pen mixers kapote, ama kuli, enda je? Akuna pesa, so si kumzimo na li po 1000 but I think it's because I'm young as you can see, I'm my small body, so nili kwa na puata ho, so na pata twist in my time, so Na say mama, DJ u kunjia wana umia? Kuna niwa na li po sa ho, but ni mi say mama maybe it's because I was young number one I'm in the industry number two and my small body that's the disclaimer of my small body All right So, Breezy ame Tom Biapa, he's a professional DJ I didn't know about that So na takatu, to pick a story kwa ya you know, photography, videography jo apundi otuna kuna sana-sana to eleze, the first time that you ever took a camera to take a picture or a video recall that moment for us Nikita ambo, Samia's back and nili kwa, nili kwa hape we were in an event with Bahati so that was the very first time I was recording his performance and stuff but okay, videographer kukuja and by then I was nili kwa msiwa kuku took in the event, cinema kwa mimi ni DJ so took in a kingya stage na mi nanda kwa mixer so that day happened uu na ni haja fika uu videographer so mi mi, nika na nika chikwa camera DJ kwa poa playliste ake tukanda iwa Nefundo Lianza Job Umemention vizu is that bahaki perform mulu kwa nanda kwa mixer ebu take us back to where are you in Bahamit wei wei wei wei so zi ni story, rare food to ambi e tumulipata na isiku gani apparently I was a fan mi nili umse dei hadu shes kia dei hadu wasa ni e umpa kumanda kufanya video kava zizbini ni ni mi ma challenge e ya so I was a fan not only wo Bahabatwa entaya artist 2MB so there's a time that kuli kwa na shoflanya safari kumse juta wasa o something and they had a partnership with dmb so online nili kwa na nanda ebu doanda so tukapata na aka kujahood tukapata na tukupata na it was on a sandia li kwa na perform church fulani ikwa kawa west ya pasta, suji aneta pasta DJ suji amana ito na ni so simin kanda service so service kusya after ma perform tukapata na aka ni ambi enerji leo kwa perform gati rimo na synamsa okuni pelaka wali kwa na managera kia na ito kiyoko so kani me enerji ingi kwa nyumda agitarisha wefanya je we tuka na ebu sasana de tukakua connected sasana from David doanda to kiyoko so the way you became tukakua so close so after kua so close that's how I managed to meet Bahati now you being his official videographer not sure whether you started vlogging with Diana before Bahati like to explain it no no no kuna bipini zili kwa binda in Bahati and Bahati reality and personnel have done mass communication so I heard zile basics tuza kushika camera na kwa asha but I don't have details what am I supposed to do how am I supposed to edit so after nilinga sasaya I am being Danny being Bahati so nilinga saka kama camera man wakushika tu camera na mona director niazze mama paile ushika camera na usi songe niazze mama paile ushika camera fini record usi songe so nilinga nikuwa ni melan more professionalism and stuff as I also venture now nilingia sasa kufanya videography sasa ni kwe perfect and most of us me included myself while you were working with the Bahatis like how was that new experience because what I am getting from you ni kama ulilan hapo that's why you like griyo skill so these people personally I call them niazze itaji so you niazze itaji because the people who brought me to the limelight the people who made jobrizi niazze jobrizi kuna mta kuna videography nita jobrizi so that's why I am to date I give them the respect that they deserve and now after sasa ume grow career yako and you're the official videographer for like Diana B like kili kuna kushtoa at first it was overwhelming sababu okulia ni kama siyami ni I'm dealing with this superstar you understand but as time kept time million that weekend and I used to wait and now in that environment I care it's real now let's do this yes so and as your career was growing you made your exit from the the bahatis like uli kachini wu kafikiri wu kasa niazze jobrizi I think I want to go for greener pastures kusabunaju wezi kama hali pamanen like forever so personally I say that every every year has seasons kuna season nia winter kuna sama na kuna so me being with the bahatis was a season shift to another season so it was just a season on to the next and on to the next you keep moving like what do you say kusabunaju lituachakwa matapali ni kashanga kwa ni breeze it na amenda wapi you know kukansa kukuana rumors just like clear that for us like was it like was it like a peaceful ni ita break up ama ni ita ni like exit number one ono jo tawazazi kuna sa zingene muna kuangana ni ni na your personal parent you understand and you sit down niazze mam niazze but we solved this so for me kutokauko I didn't see kutokana any bad blood that's why I decided to your event we'll have a cup of tea together with even Diana and stuff so it was with no bad blood so let's move on from there so currently ni me kuna sanakwa you know vlogs milichebi and Terence pale kuna prank ulimfanya ulimfanya like how is milichebi as a person what I can say is the way you see me it's not the way your director sees me so we have different views of every personal when you know nangam to see but personally she is good she is a good mom she is a good friend she is a good wife to Terence and how has it been working for them because I remember not sure where I saw this maybe I guess it's on your insta story you say that they came at the right time they've been good when you've worked with someone for over nia that means these people have been there for you because the time that they came when they came so they came time in Likwatu ni me toko kwa bahaha parenthood ni me kudza amu but when with a lot of things job parenting ni so they came through that time and yeah it has been good and during that time when you got your son Austin Brooks like did it affect your career or just like shake your career in any way number one unambongo kwenyumba kwenyuma nome at some point it was hectic for me but now I have my partner who has just had a gonsi yes so it was not so easy it was flow it was hard for me number one as a new parent number two I was financially stable I was not and also my parents iskwani me for my parents that so it's stress, depression anxiety and how are you able to keep your mental health iko sawa around that time uli kwa na support system like how was it like I can't lie I had a big support system but I talked to a few friends who were in the project it's not that serious things will keep moving and some day things will be okay wacha ni kupeleke unyuma kiasi would you tell us your first encounter like how you you just started working with them so after me met oka hosi I started working for juja road nili kuwa partnership it was tunawakwa modza tunafanya video ni ni ni ni so this particular time me li was influencing for juja road for particular I don't know what was it exactly so she didn't know was a videographer but ali kwanas kia kuna msi fulana ni tuwa so when she was the director of the hospital she said that's our videographer and it was your breezy so after the shoot she said it was your breezy and she was looking for a videographer and she came to the workshop and that's how we happened easy and what about I think you've also done a couple of videos for Jackie Matubia and blessing of course I'm guessing that Milia li ku introduce to them but how was that encounter I can't really recall when I first the first did I don't know this is a fashion house called ants fashion so Jackie also used to influence for ants fashion and now this day nili kuwa nanda shu tia mili so that was my first time Jackie and then Jackie had a baby shower so Milia came suggest to her and she said and that's how I started working for Jackie permanently alright and as well Pia I think you did the pregnancy reveal for price and Diana chacha like how does it feel yani umekwa in the game 3-4 years 3-4 years when maybe a celebrity wants to do a video like they reach out to you like tunajiwa 2 ukitaka video nijo breezy I just thank God okay it's normal at him to come and say I give all the glory to God and I thank my first parents that is Bahat and Diana because you say for that duration your time is not enough so thank you Bahat and Diana and God because Pia continue to be God so let's talk a little bit about fatherhood like how has your partner been supporting you in karyawna kuset mahali umechelo mefika homeledge like how does she support you you need to date a photographer you need to date a videographer because she is very patient and she is very well aware so you must be she has been a patient woman she has been supportive she has been all the good things that I can mention so that's why up to date I'm still in the game if we have been together for a long time so if she wouldn't be supporting in one or another and now let's see if women come to kill or to build yes, so she has built that's nice so what's next for job breezy like what do you think kukifika ilelevo lene kutaseme nia made it like do you want to build a studio what's next for job breezy in production 2023 is coming and big this is coming breezy vision was limited so god willing
