Hello and welcome to the Grand Line Review, your source for everything one piece, and today we have an unusual anime review. Me not a review of an unusual episode, but unusual in that I don't really review the anime anymore, because it became a bit of a demoralizing experience. However, a lot of people contacted me about episode 909, telling me that it was fantastic and look, they weren't wrong. And yes, I know this is a quote unquote late review, but this is when I could fit it into the schedule, and the anime isn't a huge priority for me anymore, here it is now. However, with that said, 909 was a very solid piece of anime and it's so bizarre, because you know that time travel revelation aside, almost nothing of importance actually happened. It was a very classic early arc one piece episode, taking its time to set up the players and explore a new island kind of deal. And I think this is bizarre because usually the talent and the time gets put into the more major moments of an arc, but episode 909 stands out amongst almost every episode of Wano by the first two as a 100% enjoyable experience that was well paced, well drawn, well animated, well directed, and just well crafted in general in every conceivable area. And not only that, but there was a ton of filler inserted into the episode, but it's not that kind of dirty filler that we as one piece fans bathe in every week. It was actually well integrated within the story and added to the experience of Wano. It's exactly the sort of thing that we saw in the first two episodes and what the anime desperately desperately needs to continue putting thought into in order to not completely tank this arc. So one example of some great filler that immediately comes to mind is Luffy and Law at the Kozuki Graves. There's a bunch of stuff inserted with Kinamon moaning like a ghost and the red eyes glaring from within the shadows and I loved every second of that because it really amped up the comedy of the scene which I found hilarious in the manga, but the anime far surpassed that feeling here. And I think a lot of credit also needs to go to Hiroshi Kamiya, who was the voice actor of Law, for beautifully leading both Luffy and the audience on this potentially spooky journey that heavily implied that Kinamon had died. This sort of serious comedy will always be my favorite use of Law as a character and I'm so glad that the anime nailed this. Plus, more so than any other section of the episode, the anime for this portion was ridiculously beautiful and fluid, especially when you pay attention to Luffy's more subtle movements. It almost felt a bit unnatural because I'm not used to having that kind of attention to detail placed in the one piece anime, but I loved it and it makes me want much much more. But back to wonderful filler, there was some other short filler when the straw hats entered what was left of Oden Castle, where Chopper, Brooke and Carrot were all getting injured because of the poor condition of everything, which was also a lot of fun, I loved it. And the thing about stuff like this is that it has no impact on the story whatsoever, but it does add to the flavor of what's going on. And that is what bad anime filler is generally missing, because in most cases I find that the anime filler takes the scene and then milks it for all it's worth by extending the material that was already present in the manga, rather than trying to do what this episode did and expand on the situation in hand. You know actually turning on your brain and thinking about well, I wonder what happened off panel all between two events, like the little Oden Castle interlude. And stuff like that happened all over 909, with another simple example being the scene with the teacher and the kids. The old man who was outside of a classroom was not in the manga, this was just a brief scene designed to show what the children of the capital are being taught. However, the addition of the old man questioning and scoffing at what schools are teaching is very welcome because it adds an extra layer of depth to the scene. Because yes in the manga this is obviously false, but it's up to the readers to come to the old man's conclusions and in the anime I think it's nice to have someone on screen who shares your thoughts in a situation like this. And furthermore can actually state it within the context of the world itself. And to anime only watchers I also imagine that this would have granted a hint of intrigue at the politics at play in Wano, rather than just viewing it as a straight up propaganda scene. While we're here though I actually very much enjoyed Rokoro, the snake smile teacher as well. I thought her voice acted did a wonderful job of being simultaneously delightful yet sinister and the kids were great as well. I mean for a portion of the story that's just a whole lot of nothing in the manga the anime adapted it about as well as I think it possibly could have been done. And another low-key scene that I think was adapted close to perfectly was everything with Kyoshiro. First off I'll say that his voice definitely wasn't quite what I was expecting but then again I'm also never quite sure what to expect of the Japanese voice cast. I mean it's a good fit though and it should be fun going forward. But my favorite part of the segment was Kyoshiro going through the toki prophecy because of the nice stylistic storytelling visuals that the anime chose to employ. It gave everything this glorious magical almost legendary vibe which is actually a difficult thing to achieve in one piece because the world is so grounded in its own form of science and modern day knowledge. So to have a successful moment like this is really cool and an intriguing thing to see. I mean I personally was pretty captivated and I very much want to Kyoshiro to continue telling the story. And I'm also really starting to warm to Kyoshiro's general color scheme. I was a bit unsure about it at first although I have to admit that every new character introduced in Wano is a bit of an assault to the eyes. At first anyway, just because of the focus on the vibrant colors but I really am starting to dig the blue and purple dominance at play with Kyoshiro which is also reflective in his blade as well. Then again I am heavily biased because when I use color in my own design work I often default to blue. It's just such an easy way to make things look good. Moving on the one thing in this episode I will question is the decision to have Zora randomly fight the tiger version of himself. On the one hand I love it because it is a perfect representation of Zora with the scar on the eye and the sword in its mouth and also because the animal that Zora always gets identified with is a tiger but I'm just… I don't know. This is the one scene that looks like it has the potential to drag on into some dangerous filler territory. And I think that's because this episode has made pretty clear to me that anime filler is at its strongest when it's dealing with world building or subtle character moments. However when it comes to action the filler often becomes incredibly uninspired so that does leave me with some concerns over whether or not Zora vs random anime tiger is going to be a good idea. To be fair to the anime though they are at least offering an explanation as to how Zora split up from the group because in the manga he just up and disappears. The group get to word and castle and Luffy has a brief line about how Zora went off on his own and how it was incredible that he could even get lost while rioting in big old doggo. I always personally found that a bit weird and quite frankly unsatisfying. And every now and then a moment like that will happen in the manga where Oda makes a very sudden shift with no decent explanation and it's not that things like that necessarily need an explanation even if they are a bit jarring but these situations do present great potential for the anime to expand on the material and properly fill some of the storytelling gaps. So I guess we'll see where this tiger business goes. Although I'm not sure it's off to the greatest of starts though because there is some reused animation at play already which happened when Zoro drew his thoughts. That was the exact same animation as the Zoro eyecatcher which I only recognize because they show that eyecatcher in every single episode. But you know it is cool and all but I'm really really hoping that in the near future we're going to see some eyecatchers that aren't Luffy or Zoro. And with the arrival of the whole cake island straw hearts you'd think that should probably start pretty soon. By the way it was really good to catch up with that segment of the straw heart because they felt painfully absent in the anime in my opinion just because of how long we've had to go before actually reaching them. In the manga we got to this point much quicker so their absence was kind of covered up by how good it was to see Zoro again. But I can't help but love seeing and more importantly hearing their iconic voices interact here. Also the anime did something interesting in that they had Sanji react to Kiku with his typical love eyes and such. Now this did not happen in the manga and at the time it always struck me as weird that Oda didn't insert that here because he's usually very diligent in regards to Sanji's predictable reactions even if it's just shown in the background of a panel or something. So that's something else that the anime took full advantage of which will become somewhat interesting to look back on in the future. By the way did anybody here at one point ever think that they would see Beppo shitting? I for one certainly did not. And I have on multiple occasions made the statement on this channel that any time Beppo appears on screen is a good appearance so I suppose I do have to stick to those words here. I mean it was pretty funny but I would have loved to have been in the room when someone made that suggestion. You know I'm picturing a meeting of writers and their brainstorming ways to lengthen the anime by expanding the world and then someone proudly puts up their hand and goes guys I've got it. So you know in the manga how they say that Beppo has the runs?  I think we should take advantage of the visual medium of anime to show our audience the story rather than simply tell them. And then I imagine that he received a standing ovation for having the idea of the century. So yeah that happened. Although I have to say that probably the most surprising part of the episode yes even more surprising than Beppo defecating on screen was the fact that the recap was like less than a minute long. That gave me a real shock because I fall into a bit of a habit with One Piece because when you start an episode you know you don't actually start an episode. You have the intro song, the recap, the title card and in some cases all of that can go on for like five to six minutes. So I'll start the episode and have over the top playing in the background while I do something else. Whether that's writing, editing, feeding the dog or even house cleaning you can get a lot done during a One Piece intro and recap. And I usually think that I have a bit of time before I need to actually pay attention. But I heard the title screen appearing what seemed like instantly and I was like eh damn and I rush back to my computer to actually start watching the episode.  It's also a bit hard to tell at this stage but it looks like the anime is looking to keep up this effort next week with an extended flashback of Kozuki Oden which was definitely a surprise to see given current manga events. And I mean I'm entirely up for that feel free to expand on Oden as much as you'd like. Although I do find it a bit odd that they're still trying to silhouette him despite the fact that they are also pretty much showing his entire face. It's just a strange blending of stuff going on. But to sum it all up this episode is rather shockingly one of the best of the entire One-O-Ark so far. And I say shockingly because if you would ask me to predict what the best episodes of One-O would have been simply from my market knowledge this would not have been anywhere near the top. This was a section of story that focused on low-key world building events with one big but verbal revelation at the end. So you know if an episode like this can be as good as it is then there is no reason why the rest of the One-O-Ark can't be adapted in the same vein. But then again if the last couple of months or anything to go by the anime will undoubtedly fall back into mediocrity. I have no real hope at this point other than to see the very occasional episode be produced by a competent director and animation team. That is what episode 909 was and I am very grateful for the experience. But that pretty much does it for episode 909.

energy has everybody doing, much, much better. So this is my first time in Europe, very excited. Everything I know about England comes from Harry Potter. And it's pretty accurate, so I'm really happy. Bath is an absolutely gorgeous place, in case you didn't notice. And can I get a round of applause to the organizers, who are doing a great job. That's too much applause. That was more applause than I think I'm going to get, I'm a little jealous. So my name is Saran, and I would like to start by telling you a story. So two years ago, I was not a programmer. I was this chick. I worked for startups. Show of hands, how many people have worked for or are currently working for a startup? Raise your hand. Oh, that's wonderful. OK, so you know the life, right? There's like five people. You're all trying to make it work. And on that team, I was not technical. I was the person who did pretty much everything else. I did some marketing. I did some sales. I did some business development. But I found myself always looking over at the developers and the people that I thought had the real power. And I was so jealous of what they could do. Because they could build stuff. They could make actual things. And I couldn't do that. And I really wanted that superpower. So I quit my job at a startup. And I decided to learn to code. And I went to a three-month boot camp, and I graduated. And I was so excited.  Otherwise, it's just not official. And when I graduated, I felt so powerful. There was all this stuff that I knew that I conquered. And then I got a real job. And then I realized that there is so much more to know. There's the code stuff that you don't know. There's the stuff that you don't know you don't know, which is a lot of fun. There's the stuff that you thought you knew, but you never really understood. Then there's the stuff that you forgot. And you didn't know you forgot. And when you do, that'll be a great surprise. And by the way, everything changes all the time. So welcome to programming. So if you're not familiar with the Dreyfus model of skill acquisition, it says that when you are trying to learn something new, you go through a couple of phases. Everyone starts as a novice. And when I got my first job, I was very aware of how much of a beginner I was. And I don't want to be a beginner. I don't think anyone here wants to be a novice. You want to be an expert. You want to be that chick. You want that orange cape and those really cool sunglasses. And that's the person I wanted to be. And so I went to all of my senior developer friends and I said, how do I do that? How do I become an expert? How do I go from novice to expert in as quick a time as I possibly can? And they said, read code. Wonderful. That's pretty straightforward advice, I think. And so I went to a couple of my friends that graduated with me and I said, hey, let's get together for one hour every Sunday at 11 AM. By the way, I am not a morning person. I don't wake up before 2 PM on a weekend. So this to me was just a huge amount of dedication. And so we decided to call it CodeClub. So we went back to those senior developers and we said, what kind of code should we read? What's a really good code base to study from a beginner perspective? And they said, you should read anything. That's not helpful. If someone comes to you and says, how do I start learning this thing? Don't say, oh, you can start anywhere because there's nothing I can really do with that. So we decided to create our own set of rules. We said that the code base we read should be exemplary. And we defined exemplary as being popular, something that we'd heard of before, something that was well documented so that if we ever got stuck, we had something to go back to, something that was well written, which is kind of hard to judge as a beginner. But we felt like we could kind of get a sense of that and something that was well maintained, something that wasn't totally out of date and was still being used.  So we decided to start with Sinatra's get method. Now, in school, Sinatra was the first framework that we learned. And we never really understood how it worked. So we thought this was a good place to start. So we got together on Google Hangout. By the way, I'm a huge fan of remote working. Any excuse to not wear pants is great. And so we got together and we were so excited to finally understand how the get method worked. And after some time, we realized that it was a little too complex for us at that point because we found ourselves kind of following one method call to a different method call and we were going across files and we'd see something interesting and then we'd go down a rabbit hole and it just kind of all became very overwhelming. And we went from being very excited to kind of scared. And so I'm a big fan of retros. I like kind of taking a step back and saying, how did we do? What can we do better? And so at the end of that first session, we said, how was the experience for each of us? What did we learn? And how can we do this better next week? And the first lesson that we learned was to pick a manageable code base. So Sinatra was just a little too big to cover in one hour. And so we decided that for all future code bases, we're going to stick with 100 lines of code. And that was an arbitrary number but it ended up working out really well because when you start with something that's that small, it gives you a lot of leeway. It gives you time to ask questions. Everyone felt comfortable saying, hey, wait a minute. I don't quite understand what that is. Can we go into that a little bit deeper? It gives you an opportunity to try things. And very often we'd open up Pry or IRB and just start trying the things that we saw. And it was a great learning opportunity. And it was also great because we got to research topics. If there was a new method that we wanted to read the documentation for, everyone felt comfortable doing that and exploring it without feeling like we were holding people back. And what I learned in that first session was that it really wasn't about reading the code. The code was just a really good excuse. It was about the digressions. It was about these conversations. Those rabbit holes that I was initially kind of worried about were actually the best part of the whole thing. The third thing that we learned was that it's a team effort. We kept our group small. We kept it at five. And when we told people about it, people said, can I join? I had to say, no, you can't, sorry. But it really was a team effort. And by keeping the group really small, we had an opportunity for everyone to feel like they had a voice. Everyone felt like they could participate. The other thing that we found was really important is to have a tour guide. This isn't an expert. They're not teaching. It's not the person who knows everything. It's the person who says we're gonna start on line four and we're gonna keep going down. By the way, does anyone have any questions?  How are you doing? And kind of checking up on people and making sure that everyone is engaged. So we realized after a couple of weeks that finding exemplary code is really hard, especially how we define exemplary. So out of necessity, we kind of just found whatever code base we could find that was about a hundred lines of code.  How would we write it? And he gave us our first moment of interaction. It was the first time that we said, huh, if we were the developer who created this code base, what would we have done? And we got to interact and engage with the code base in a very different way. And so the way we interacted is by asking a couple of questions. We asked, what is the intent of this method? What is this thing actually doing? Why was it written that way? And how did it fit into the overall code base? Was there a pattern that maybe we had missed where writing the method this way made the most sense? So what we learned by him asking that question and having that opportunity to interact and explore is that it doesn't have to be exemplary. Reading that code is awesome because especially as a beginner, if you know that what you're reading isn't something that's particularly stellar, it gives you permission. It allows you to critique that code base very, very comfortably because it's not supposed to be great. And that's a really, really important skill as a novice programmer.  So everything was going swimmingly. And then one day, Dan, who's just always full of questions, says, I don't think I really understand how Rack Middleware works. And we said, Dan, it's obvious. And then we realized we actually didn't know how Rack Middleware worked either. And he gave us our first knowledge gap. There was this thing that we were looking at and all of a sudden this kind of big part of how, you know, Rails specifically works, we didn't really understand. So the next code session, instead of reading code, we decided to kind of break apart. We did our research on Rack Middleware things. We sent each other blog posts and videos. We reconvened and we talked it out. And we got an opportunity to both ask questions and do a little bit of teaching. And so finding those knowledge gaps and using these sessions to fill them is a really, really important tool. Everything was going swimmingly again. And then we read the Omnioth Meetup gem. So I had to use this gem and modify it for a project that I was working on at work. And so I asked the Code Club, I said, hey, do you mind if we kind of dive into this because I need to understand it anyway? And I realized that when I was reading something that I actually had to use, it was a totally different experience. I was way more emotionally engaged in what I was learning that I would have been otherwise. So if you can find relevant code bases that you need to use for your side project or for your real job, then it really does change your experience. So then there were some unexpected benefits. We're learning code, we're all asking questions, we're having a great time, but there are a few other things that I didn't expect that were very interesting. So the first is when you read code, you get to take a look at the organization of the code, at the structure. It's not just the individual lines of code that you're looking at, but how the folders are structured, how the files are named, and all these little things that you get to pick up along the way. You get to see collaboration. When I first learned to code, everyone talked about open source and how open source was this beautiful idea where people all around the world could come together and write code together. And I didn't really get to understand what that was until I started reading code. And all of a sudden I realized that this gem was actually forked from a different gem, which was forked from another code base. And I got to see the full collaboration right there. And it was really, really beautiful. And the third thing is building your confidence. As a novice programmer, I think this is really, really important. You're so self-conscious about what you know and what you don't know as you saw the big mountain of things I didn't know. And so with every opportunity that you have to feel like you're engaged and you have opinions and you ask questions really does wonders for your confidence and your code. So after a while of doing this, I decided that I wanted to try something new. I decided that I didn't wanna just read code and I didn't wanna do it just with people that I already knew. So remember when I told you I first learned to code and I did that boot camp thing? Before that, I spent three months alone in my apartment learning to code on my own. And this is what it felt like. I was very tired and my hair was a mess. And it was just a very exhausting and kind of a painful process. I used Treehouse and Co-School and anything I could find online. And it was just a lot more lonely and sad than I thought that it was going to be. But then when I got to boot camp all of a sudden I had these wonderful people to learn with. I had these people that I could cry with when things didn't work and people I could high five and they finally made sense. But that experience cost me $11,000 and many months without a job. And not everyone can afford this opportunity. And what I realized was that the value of that boot camp wasn't just the technical foundation it was finding that community support. So I decided to start something that you mentioned which is code newbie. So I didn't like this idea that if you didn't have that money then you couldn't really find a community of people to learn with. Especially if you're not part of a tech hub like I was in New York City. And so I decided to do a Twitter chat. By show of hands how many people know what a Twitter chat is? I'm gonna drop some knowledge on you, it's gonna be great. So the way a Twitter chat works is you agree on a hashtag. Our hashtag was code newbie and for one hour every Wednesday night at 9 p.m. Eastern time we decided to convene around this hashtag. And so I would tweet out questions like what did you learn today? Did you have any speed bumps? Anything we can help you with? And people would respond and include that same hashtag. So what happens is when you search for the hashtag you end up with a stream that's really just a great conversation with people all over the world who are excited about learning to code. And so I did this and I thought it would last maybe a few weeks, a couple of months but it's been over a year and we went from being just a regular hashtag, Twitter chat to being this incredibly diverse and inclusive community of people all over the world excited about learning to code. So I said, what if I took this community and I did these code club sessions with them with people that I didn't really know personally outside of Twitter? And what if we didn't just read code but we read other things like blog posts, we watched videos like I'm not saying any of these videos. We looked at tutorials and we read a chapters from books. What happened then? And so I made a little page on our site and allowed anyone to basically post a code club session they wanted to have. And we had a bunch of different topics from JavaScript to learning go to sublime text and all kinds of things. And actually our most popular one was TDD in Rails which is really, really great. And anyone could sign up and we kept the same guidelines that we took from code club. So every session was really small was at most four people at a time. We kept it to one hour and we picked really manageable activities. And in the past few months we've had over 50 different code club sessions. And what I learned was learning to code and being a better programmer wasn't just about reading code bases. It was more about learning together and understanding the rules of learning together that can make all of us much, much stronger developers and better people. Obviously you were excited about starting your own code club, yes?  One more time, are you excited about starting your own code club? That's better, I'll take that. So to review the guidelines, pick a manageable activity. If you want to read code for me that means about 100 lines of code is comfortable but try your own thing too. And if you're picking a blog post something short maybe one chapter from a book maybe don't read all of pooter but maybe one chapter of pooter at a time. Understand that the learning isn't about the reading it's not about the activity it's about the conversations that happen it's about me trying something out and you saying actually let's do this a different way it's in those talks that the learning really takes place. It's a team effort make sure that everyone is engaged if you see someone being quiet prompt them to talk and participate. You have to pick a tour guide someone has to be in charge for everyone else's happiness. It's kind of a big responsibility but I think it's really, really important. Interact with the code actually try things out there were so many opportunities where I would just literally try a copy and paste the example from the tutorial and try it out and then that would lead to us trying slightly different variations of that same code sample and we learned a lot just from that. It doesn't have to be good bad code is awesome for learning and find those knowledge gaps if you see something that's kind of big that you want to pause and dive deeper that is a really great opportunity to do so and find relevant code bases find things that you're actually genuinely interested in and you'll be a lot more engaged. So how is this getting me to expert? That's kind of how we started this whole conversation, right? I'm a novice and I want to go through those stages and I want to end up as an expert. So how does this do that? I found a graphic some time ago on Twitter that I really, really like and I think it explains how I understand these code club sessions to get me to being an expert. I'd like to share that with you. So this is information. Information is just data, right? It's just stuff. It's individual stuff. There's no story. There's no connections. It's all there. Knowledge is when you connect the dots. It's when you realize that there's some pathways that you didn't see before. It's saying that I can start from, they all look like skittles to me. I don't know if they look like skittles to you, but I can start from that yellow one all the way on the left. I can go to the green one. I can go down and then I can make my way up to that red. It's being able to see these different patterns. And when we have these code club sessions and we have these conversations, what we're doing is we're making those dots and we're making those pathways. We're able to tell a story. And what's great about learning together is that I have my own set of experiences and Stephanie has hers and Dan has his and we get to come together and we get to build and leverage all that experience in one hour sessions. Now, wisdom is knowing that I don't need all those skittles. I only need those two and those two are the most important skittles there. And I don't need that long convoluted pathway. I have that one shortcut that really matters. And so I believe that by having these conversations by learning together, by using these guidelines, we can get to wisdom and wisdom is how we become experts. So that is my talk. You're welcome to learn more at code newbie.com and thank you so much for your time.


Acoustics. Something many are obsessed by, often splurging incredible amounts of money on technology in the pursuit of better and better sound. But acoustics is not merely limited to electric guitarists painting over which amp they should buy. It is also the studies of the properties of sound. A simple statement, yet it has far-reaching influences which reach not only deep into our psyche but also into an inconceivably huge part of our lives and decision making, almost nearly all parts of our species' lives is influenced by it. Even looked at and used within the modern era as a main component within military weaponry. However, the term acoustic can also mean, and I quote, the properties or qualities of a room or building that determine how sound is transmitted in it. And this area is the one which we find tremendously interesting, as during our ongoing and in-depth research into many sites all over the world, coming to know a vast amount of interesting factors regarding a large swath of already studied or rather exposed sites within the modern mainstream. The hypogeum in Malta, being one of them, an extraordinary site that has been explored in detail and discovered to possess incredible acoustic abilities. Abilities which have been found at the site in question within this video. Yet we feel the connections between these remarkable sites need to be looked at closer, and the possibility that are now lost yet highly advanced seemingly acoustically obsessed ancient civilization, not only once existing, becomes ever more likely but that they succeeded in discovering incredible things, things we are yet to fully understand regarding acoustic resonance, so much so that it allowed them to be the original builders of these marvelous structures. It was first thought that seven circular structures, which are located around the sacred hill and on the neighboring hills, represented the sun, moon, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Venus, and Mercury. However, interestingly, it was later hypothesized that there may be a grave monument and a sacred area still preserved here. Interestingly, it seems although it is thought that Pagans in Somatash climbed up the sacred hill within permitted history, the team have not attributed them with the achievement of creating the sites. This, to us, seems highly unusual, so much so we may actually be witnessing a change in attitudes within academic study. If so, this is an enormous victory on ours, and more importantly, truth's behalf. Additionally, they have seemingly bravely put forward a quote which we also find highly intriguing, for it is one we feel, which would have once been dismissed, yet another grain of inclination that strategies and most important attitudes within academic pursuit is altering. The Archeoacoustic Research Group, known as SB, asked us to take into consideration that it is possible to perceive a magnetic field by empirical observation, and in the same way, to pursue a higher state of consciousness during meditation or rituals in the presence of strong infrasounds. They continued, if one were to extend this research to the ruins of the other six temples, it may provide further insight." We find these claims interesting, especially due to the popularization of the acoustic knowledge regarding the Hypogeum in Malta. Additionally, ours and others repeated reports of the mass burial found there, nearly 7,000 separate remains discovered there, some claimed as seemingly having alien origins found buried at the Hypogeum, yet is, ironically, a story and discovery which has been long attempted to be buried itself. Yet these acoustic properties are undoubtedly incredibly intriguing, possibly groundbreakingly important, especially when one considers it is accompanied with a claim of undisturbed burial grounds, and when one considers what was claimed to have been found among the burial in Malta, a discovery we have previously covered. Somatash, within Turkey, is undoubtedly highly compelling. Just over a year and a half ago, we covered some astonishing discoveries once made in Malta. It is a structure that was undoubtedly once created by people or indeed beings of an incredible intelligence. Among its many impressive features is its seemingly perfect control of sound. When one stands in a certain place known as the Oracle Room within the structure and merely speaks at a normal volume, their voice is not only heard throughout the structure, but it is also somehow ingeniously amplified. Additionally, and perhaps most intriguing regarding the discovery which was once buried under eons of sediment were the remains that were found there, as if once invaded and all its inhabitants killed, containing thousands of often headless corpses. However, there were a number of these bodies which not only still possessed their heads, but were described to look exactly like that, which today would be recognized as greys. A supposed race of alien beings that have long been rumored to have visited Earth and, according to some alternative researchers and whistleblowers alike, possibly inhabit underground bases here upon our planet. These bodies, unfortunately, are predictably now missing. However, this amazing ancient structure is not the only one to be found within Malta. There are countless anomalous buildings throughout the country, all seemingly explained away or brushed under the rug by modern academia. Tarxian temples making up a number of these so often overlooked sites. The Hal Tarxian Temple, for example, is the location of the Great Earth Mother Statue, a monument with blocks weighing up to 50 tons each. Furthermore, there are many other lesser known or indeed academically shared ancient curiosities found throughout the temple complex, such as spirals and precise animal carvings, an extremely ancient form of concrete, hold stones, seemingly drilled out with the use of modern-day power tools, and much more. The Tarxian consists of three separate, yet attached temple structures, the main entrance to which, being a modern reconstruction dating from 1956, when the whole site was excavated and restored due to the clearly exquisite nature of many of the decorated slabs discovered on site, they were salvaged and relocated for protection, now housed within the Museum of Archaeology in Valetta. Also of interest is that many believe Tarxian provides rare insight into how the megaliths were moved, apparent stone rollers were found left outside the South Temple. However, this long-attested theory does not explain how such people moved these stones over rough terrain, or indeed masterfully place them atop one another, how a group placed far back within Earth's history achieved such awe-inspiring details within the construction of Tarxian. Where did the rumored alien remains go? Who stole them? Why such secrecy surrounding these remains? Was the site perhaps built with the help of an outside intelligence? Perhaps these were the remains of the builders, with later human inhabitants buried with their perceived gods. We find such sites, their advanced nature, and indeed the attached conspiracies, to be highly compelling. There are many ancient sites which we have already covered here on our channel, that regardless of the unexplained features we continue to expose, are little researched or indeed revisited by mainstream academia. These sites are predictably given an illogical explanation for their origin and creation, dismissed and ignored, as if the book regarding their history is complete and thus closed from further study. However, there exist some sites that required such a long-time excavation that many researchers, some funded, others with independent interests, were able to reveal simply astonishing features, ancient feats of engineering before they were attributed to groups who were simply incapable of achieving them. The Hypogeum in Malta is one such place, a place we have covered before, that regardless of the academic denial of unexplained discoveries continues to be well known for the 6,000 ancient burials found within the ruins with no less than six elongated unexplainable skulls, possibly attached to corpses discovered amongst them. These reported remains later vanished and are now utterly denied as having ever existed. Yet so many researchers became aware of these discoveries, later sharing this cover-up with the world. The official museum and curator tasked with the responsibility of caring for the site and the countless remains found within is still, to this day, inundated year by year with requests and calls regarding these unexplainable remains. So many in fact, that the official body was compelled to put up an official statement regarding the lack of any such remains in their care, along with a denial of them ever having existed. However, there are many more anomalies, no less astonishing, still hidden within the Hypogeum. Anomalies which are no less difficult to explain or indeed deny as existing. Known as the Oracle Room, there is a place within this complex construction which, if one stands upon a specifically made altar, their voice can mysteriously be heard throughout, even at speaking level, as if amplified and complimented by the structure's entire design. Yet the most interesting thing regarding this incredible feature is the resonance in which it converts one's voice to and the effect this can have on the human brain. Known as the Holy Frequency, the Hypogeum not only carries one's voice throughout, but does so at 111 Hertz. Paul Devereux, an archaeoacoustician, a professor from Cambridge University in the UK, has also discovered that the burial mounds of cairns also resonated sounds at this mysterious 111 Hertz. Devereux investigated this intriguing relation of 111 Hertz and found out something quite interesting. He realized there were many ancient texts, describing beliefs which are based on a divine sound or divine frequency principle. According to Devereux, Pythagoras created his musical scale starting with the note A, which curiously resonates at the frequency of 111 Hertz. Additionally, further research with MRI scans has shown that the brain switches off the prefrontal cortex and also deactivates the language center that is responsible for holistic processing, creativity, intuition, and inducing an emotional plateau at exactly 111 Hertz. This reaction many field tests revealed resulted in an experience described as a divine level of meditation in a number of subjects. This trance, some now believe, allows one to get connected with the universe, God, or a creator. The question is, who knew such advanced knowledge so far back within antiquity? How were they able to create such stone structures which amplified one's voice to exactly this frequency? It seems preposterous to continue to attest that this amazing structure was somehow built by our lesser capable modern ancestors over 3500 years ago. With such amazing discoveries and cover-ups which have been made here, we feel that we have merely scratched the surface in modern times of the secrets this mysterious place must hold. It is a place which is undoubtedly highly compelling. In 1902, an incredible discovery was made in Malta, a discovery which has been covered up for over a century. While digging down to create foundations for a new building construction, workers discovered something profound it is best described as an ancient, buried sanctuary. Within this underground structure, numerous amazing discoveries have been made, including a room known as the Oracle Room, which if spoken in, reverberates the voice of the speaker throughout the huge complex. Within this room along with others, many statues of human forms have been discovered, a sleeping woman in particular was found in the Oracle Room, all the statues are of larger form women, the reason for this is unknown, like the reasons for so many other things within this fascinating place. The structure is dated that well over 5000 years old, in fact, it is the oldest known official dated structure ever discovered, it makes you wonder why it is not covered more publicly, and once revealed that 7000 remains of possible aliens were discovered at this place, and subsequently stolen and covered up, you begin to suspect sinister motives. Indeed, within this buried structure the remains of 7000 beings were found, all with long skulls, what is interesting about these skulls however, and what sets them apart, was that no evidence of cranial knitting or even past binding was discovered upon analysis, along with a long list of abnormalities that lent museum specialists towards the conclusion that these skulls were not human. Subsequently stolen, vanishing without trace, that is however apart from, Dr. Anton Mifsad, and his colleague Dr. Charles Savon of Ventura, initial research studies, recorded along with photographic and illustrative documentation. The abnormalities included, but were not limited to, the lack of a fossa, a lack of cranial knitting lines, abnormally developed temporal partitions, apparent drill holes and swollen oxyputs, as if struggling with pressures. The largest group of all of these skulls all lack cranial knitting, and lack any evidence of skull binding or artificial elongation in any form. This is a rare similarity shared with skulls found in Egypt and South America. It is also unique within the world of pathology, were these skulls from an ancient alien race, living in a highly developed complex? Ultimately killed by man and their remains stacked within the structure? Maybe they didn't taste very nice. The website Ancient Origin dug up this amazing excerpt from National Geographic. From an examination of the skeletons of the polished stonage, it appears that the early inhabitants of Malta were a race of long skull people of lower medium height, akin to the early people of Egypt, who spread westward along the north coast of Africa, when some went to Malta and Sicily and others to Sardinia and Spain. That profound conclusion was made by National Geographic Magazine January to June, 1920. Prior to 1985 the skulls were on display at the Archaeological Museum of the Letter, they were then taken down from public view and put into storage, they were never seen again. Apart from one newspaper that accomplished attaining permission to photograph the collection and cover the story, briefly after them being put into storage, all thanks to Robert Zemit leader of the Maltese Tourist Board. This was over 30 years ago and nothing has been heard of them since. What exactly did these 7,000 skulls belong to? How did they build the Oracle Room? Were they an alien race? If not why the cover up, why has more public coverage of one of the oldest known prehistory discoveries not been made? We are said to share genetics with Neanderthals and that something wiped them out, many suspect we were the culprits of this extinction, like so many other species that once dwelled on this earth, maybe these creatures came to the same untimely demise. But without the remains, we may never know.


My friends Amarpata Kaurva and in this video I am going to update you related to NTA UDC net June 2020 examination. We all are aware of the fact that Corona virus is spreading all across the globe and our Prime Minister Narendra Modi has declared a complete lockdown for 21 days to safeguard all the Indian citizens. So because of this lockdown all the schools and colleges have closed down. The most prominent institutions, educational institutions like IITs have suspended their classes and all the coaching institutes which were preparing students for UDC net examination have also shut down. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has asked all of us to stay indoors and work from home so that we can break the chain of Corona virus spreading across India. Now a mist of all of this all the UDC net aspirants are really confused and really worried. Why? Because they are unsure about the upcoming examination. They are not sure whether the exam would be delayed or postponed or whether it would be cancelled altogether. So in this video I am going to break all those rumours and going to give you a very factful update about the next UDC net examination. Before we look at the status of NTA UDC net examination it is important to look at the status of all the other examinations that are happening all around the country. So Indian government has ordered all the important educational institutions to shut down their classes. Also at the same time the major educational bodies like NTA and CBSC and NIOS has been ordered to cancel their exams or postpone their exams so that we can avoid large gathering. And in the same view CBSC has postponed 10th and 12th examination. On the other hand we have JEE exam which was supposed to be conducted in the month of April which has also been postponed by NTA. And NIOS which stands for National Institute of Open School has postponed their practical exams for 10th and 12th. So looking at this situation we are finding that all the exams that was supposed to be conducted in the month of April has been postponed. But if you look at the UPSC exam which was supposed to be conducted on 31st of May has not been postponed as of now. We have not received any official notification related to the postponing of UPSC exam. Now since the exam is supposed to be conducted in the end of May we are hoping that the situation is going to become better and the exam is going to be conducted on the date as planned. But what about the status of NTA UGC net examination let's look at some facts. Till now no notification has been released from NTA related to the dates of NTA UGC net examination. If you go to their website they have not uploaded any new announcement related to the exam dates. Also I would like to make sure that you know the fact that the application forms are out and the last date of filling is 15th of April. So I would request you to kindly fill the application form. Be not sure whether the exam would be conducted on the same date or not but whatever the case may be the examination would be conducted somewhere in the near future. As per the last notification of NTA the exam would be conducted between 15th of June to 20th of June. Looking at the current situation I am very hopeful that India would be able to combat the impact of coronavirus and the normal functionality would begin somewhere in the month of May. If that happens in that case the exam would be conducted as scheduled. If in case the India would not be able to control the virus outbreak in that case there is a possibility that the exam might get postponed. The next question that might pop up in your head after knowing that the exams are uncertain is what to do next. So for you I have a very simple plan which you can follow till the time we don't get any official notification from UGC. So the first and foremost thing that you should do is to not panic. Please don't panic at this time of global emergency. Make sure that you believe in yourself and you believe in the educational bodies of India. Whatever the case may be I am pretty sure that the educational bodies are going to take the best decision in favour of our students. The second important thing that you should know right now is that please don't believe in rumours. There are a lot of Facebook and WhatsApp groups where unnecessary and irrelevant information are being circulated regarding the exam dates. Nobody knows till now and nobody is ever going to know before NTA is going to publish the official notification related to the change in exam dates. So let us all wait for NTA to release the notification and only believe in any news once you yourself confirm it by going to the official site of NTA. We are going to publish the official notification on our social media platform as soon as NTA is going to release it. So if you want to know about the exam date please follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Telegram so that you be the first one to know about the change in exam dates. Coaching centres have closed down, India is in complete lockdown position but your learning should not stop. Make sure that you utilise this period of self quarantine to prepare yourself for UGC net examination. Guys understand the fact that even if the exam is getting postponed it is going to be conducted some or the other day in this entire year. So make sure that you prepare yourself during this period and only when the exam is going to get conducted you just have to merely revise. That's it. Don't waste your time right now to think about the rumours or to just gossip about the exam dates. Rather than that you should utilise your time to complete the syllabus so that whenever the exam would be you would just revise and go and crack it in your first go. So use this golden opportunity to crack UGC net examination. For you we have brought a lot of courses on our website so that you can prepare for the upcoming examination.

Fulton with the interception. Hope you're having a great Thanksgiving weekend, and welcome to Titans All Access with Amy Wells. I'm Mike Keith, and we are certainly thankful for all of you who are tuned in. You know what I'm thankful for, Mike Keith? No. It's Jeffrey Simmons. Oh, well, that's good. Yeah, I'm thankful that he... I didn't know where you were going with that. I know, well, we're starting it off with a bang. Good. I'm thankful for Jeffrey Simmons, not only all of the time, but especially this week. Yeah, coming back from not playing against Denver and then playing against Green Bay and making a difference just with his presence. As a matter of fact, let's go beneath the surface and take a look at some of Big Jeff's big plays from the big win. Hey, guys. Coach Mike here with this week's Beneath the Surface, powered by Microsoft Surface, beginning now. We're going to look today after the effect that Jeffrey Simmons had on this game after his return from a one-game absence. His presence was felt at some very critical junctures in this ball game. Let's highlight two of these crucial plays by Big Jeff and the victory over Green Bay at Lambeau Field on Thursday night football in front of a national audience. Green Bay Packers came into this ball game, one of the top rushing teams in the league. Titan's defense held the Packers offense to a 56 yards and a 2.9 average. Titans are now up 27-17. We're looking at a wide nine rush alignment, three by one offense. Jeff is the left wide four eye technique. It's a three deep with a high hole robber. Joshua Kalu is the high hole robber as he drops down. This is a picture perfect cage rush. Excellent marriage of rush to coverage here. Big Jeff, once the pocket is squeezed, the middle is squeezed. Big Jeff then does an excellent job of coming off of a double team, making a very perfect tight wrap. Aaron Rodgers never sees him coming around the corner. This is a huge sack at this point in the game. After a huge sack, watch Big Jeff, classic Big Jeff sack celebration. So great to see. Next play we're gonna look at fourth and one, two 12 left to the fourth quarter. This is a critical play for Green Bay. They're an 11 personnel, two by two. The Titans are in a man to man, four man front. Simmons starts out in a tight two eye technique and then prior to the snap moves head up on the guard. The ball is snapped. This is excellent get off by him with a hat in the hands technique. He crushes the guard number 76 into the A gap, forcing the back to alter his path, allowing David Long, who has a tremendous trigger and feel, massive fourth down stop at this point in the ball game. This Titans defense was very opportunistic and very critical all game long of turning back the Packers in crucial situations, some after many sudden changes, but Big Jeff made his presence felt in his return on Thursday night football. Titans need a lot more of those kinds of plays from Jeffrey Simmons this Sunday as they host the Cincinnati Bengals at Nissan Stadium. Well, coming up next, we're talking the Cincinnati Bengals and we're talking ball in general with Titans general manager, John Robinson. Got a lot to discuss, so stick around. Stick around. Nashville is the top five city in America in terms of chef driven restaurants. My first taste of barbecue was a charcoal grill in the backyard. Hey, it's Matt Moore. Be sure to check out Keith Bullock and Martin's barbecue joint on Taste of Tennessee, exclusively on LG channels and LG OLED TVs. Titans All Access continues from the Bet MGM studio as we're talking ball presented by Duncan with general manager, John Robinson. And by the way, watching this edition of Titans All Access, you're gonna see going in and out of breaks the names of the finalists for the Tennessee Titans Mr. Football Award, which will be given at Nissan Stadium on December the 7th. This is also a big week for high school football, Blue Cross Bowl activity in Chattanooga. Excited about that, John. Great time to be a high school athlete in the state. Tell me, why is it so important to you and this entire organization to support high school sports the way the Titans do? Well, Mike, I mean, I think it's where most of us all got our start with the game of football and where that first love kind of started to cultivate. So to be a part, to give back and to honor those players individually that have had outstanding seasons as well as support those teams that are pushing towards that state title. Now let's take a quick look back over the Titans win over Green Bay. As you look through the tape, what really stands out to you about that win? Well, I thought offensively we were able to get into drives. We were able to sustain drives, both running it and passing it. It was good to see the passing attack kind of come alive there. And defensively, it was just the opposite. We were able to stop their running game, put some pressure on Aaron Rodgers and force them to punt. And it was a tough road environment, but great to come away with that win. Yeah, when you win the game 27-17 and you see the celebration, the fans all there who were there for the Titans are celebrating, the team celebrating. Unfortunately, center Ben Jones was not there and yet you brought him to the party because you had him on your phone greeting the players as they headed back into the locker room. Really a magical moment to see. What made you think to do that?  He's one of our leaders. He's one of the guys when we come after the win he comes up the tunnel. He's always got a big bear hug for me. And it just dawned on me that he was back in Nashville. So I thought I would FaceTime. Lucky me, he was still awake. And I wanted him to be a part of the excitement that was going on with his teammates and then him to be able to share that moment with them with that win there in Lambo. Let's look ahead to the next opponent, the Cincinnati Bengals. They're six and four. They're coming off of a big win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Joe Burrow is still playing great. What is it about him and his style of play that makes him almost an elite quarterback? Yeah, I mean, he's just, he's got an outstanding skill set. I mean, he's mobile within the pocket. He can escape pressure and get on the perimeter of defenses. He's got a strong arm. He's got great chemistry with the playmakers around him. He's certainly got a lot of those. And he's got a big arm. And he's accurate. He throws with a lot of confidence that it's going to be on target and his guy's going to be there to make the boy. One of the targets, one of the elite athletes is T. Higgins, who's from Oak Ridge, Tennessee. With Jamar Chase having missed the last three games, T. Higgins has really elevated. What do you see from him that's allowed him to go to this different level? Yeah, he's playing really, really well, Mike.  I mean, he's 6'4 and change. He's got a really big catch rate. He's got excellent catch skills. I think one of the things that I've been the most impressed watching him is his ability to drop his weight for a taller player to get in and out of his breaks. It looks like his route tree has really expanded, you know, more than the vertical go or the post. He can run a lot of those in-cuts, a lot of those, you know, quick outs because he has developed that skill set to drop his weight in and out of his breaks. Finally, what are your keys to beating the Cincinnati Bengals? Certainly, you know, I think we touched on the offensive firepower that they have. I'd add Mixon into that group. They're running back who's outstanding. Boyd, the other receiver, and Hearst, the tight end. You know, a lot of playmakers, and they really rebuilt that offensive line in the offseason. Defensively, there's a lot of familiar faces that we saw in January. Great safety tandem in Bates and Bell. Two rangy linebackers in Wilson and Pratt, and with Hendricks and Hubbard off the edge. DJ Reader in the middle. We've got to sustain drives offensively like we did in Green Bay. We've got to get into the drives. We've got to keep the football. We've got to try to get some turnovers off these guys and force them to punt. John Robinson talks ball with us, presented by Duncan, every week on Titans All Access. When we come back, Amy and I have more for you right after this. Welcome back to Titans All Access. In the last two weeks, Nick Westbrook, a Kine has had almost 150 yards and two touchdowns. So Mike Keith had to sit down and talk with him as this week's Nissan insider, and they talked about his evolving role within the Titans offense. What's it like to be one of the older guys? Are you, you're not really one of the older guys, but in the receiver room, you are. Years spent in Tennessee at one of the older guys. It's definitely different. Definitely trying to like adjust to that and kind of get used to that role of being the guy that guys in the room look up to and look to for answers and advice. But it's awesome. You told me this three years ago, I would love it. So happy to be here.  For the guy who had to fight and you wanted every rep you could possibly get? Yeah, it was a shock to me at first, that first week against Baltimore. Wasn't really expecting it, but very appreciative of them trying to take care of me. And then going in the next week, I felt it was kind of nice to be able to actually play and get some game reps and kind of like feel like what a game is gonna be like, get through the pre-game, nervousness, anxiety and just kind of work through that. And that way, once the season comes, it's all just normal and back to normal. And then be able to then take care of me again. That last game was, it was a blessing honestly, just to see how far I've come here and then respect that I've earned. But now that you have a set role, how much does that actually give you an opportunity to improve because you know what to expect out of your job every day and every week? That's yeah, I feel like that's a huge thing and I haven't really, I've had that thought but not been able to put it in words until you say that, but like having a role and like understanding exactly what it is, it just gives you that much more confidence. Like one, just be able to know that I can try new things, I can make mistakes and kind of still feel okay that I can try to get better and figure out what works what doesn't work and I don't have the ramifications of like, oh, I might not make a team if I do this. So it's been huge and allowing me to play fast and confident and just be the best receiver I can be now. But that scrappy dude's still in there. Yeah, he's still in there for sure. When does it come out?  True pro already, I know he's a young receiver but he's consistent, being able to continue to get separation, doing the same things every single day, getting open, contested catches, a reliable receiver. You have had the opportunity to be around a lot of guys who could be influential. Very cool in that way. So let me ask you the perfunctory Robert Woods question. What does it mean to be around him and what have you learned from him? Yeah, it's been awesome so far, being around Rob, like he brings like a sense of urgency. I feel like every day into practice and I can just like see his mentality in the way that he gets ready for practice, approaching it like it's a game, like he's, you know, preparing for the Super Bowl. We're super tight and our lockers are coming right by each other, sitting, meeting, close to each other, always communicating and asking each other questions, always trying to get better, whether it's me asking him or him asking me, we really just trying to improve our whole room. And kind of following that standard and like understanding the way he practices, I feel like I just, it's almost infectious. Like I see how hard he works and I want to do the same thing and work just as hard. So that's probably one of the biggest things that I've learned from him so far. Coming up next, Mike Keith will be back and we're talking decision of the week. So stick around. On Tuesday, the Titans partnered with the McFerrin Park Community Center to provide families one stop shop access to much needed resources in a short amount of time at Nissan Stadium. The convoy of hope included groceries, shoes and socks, health screenings, family photos, a kid's zone, and much more to kick off the beginning of the holiday season. Certainly proud of our fellow Titans employees for pitching in the way they do to help make Thanksgiving and the holiday season more special. Good stuff there, Amy. Oh, absolutely, it's great stuff. But now it's time for more good stuff and that is the Hughes and Coleman decision of the week. All right, let's go. You ready for it? I'm ready. All right, John Robinson during this past off season decided to add tight end Austin Hooper, good decision. Yes, absolutely. You see nine catches for 77 yards and two touchdowns in the two games last week and you begin to understand where he fits, what he does in the red zone, what he does on third downs. It's taken a little while, but the Titans saw him as that receiving threat that they were really missing at the tight end position. Now, we see that Chig Akoquo is going to get it. He's making a lot of big plays down the field, but for volume at the tight end position right now, Austin Hooper is a great option. He's big, he's fast, he's powerful. He uses his body to almost post up on linebackers and safeties and he's giving Ryan Tannehill a reliable target. Great decision to sign Austin Hooper. Great decision indeed. Indeed. More coming up on this edition of Titans All Access. We've got your Titans game ticket down the road, but as we go to break, let's take a look at some more names of finalists for the Tennessee Titans Mr. Football Award, which will be handed out on December 7th at Nissan Stadium. Congratulations to all our finalists. The hottest Mike under the sun. Hey, got a DJ? Hey, got a DJ? He's cozy up somewhere. Is that it right there? You brought me a Friday night light, Sadie. I feel like I'm back in high school. Woo! That was a night land bowl, baby. Once everybody got in here, I got all that hot, stink breath. I feel like it's warmer down here. Uh, uh, great drive, Taney. It comes down for you. Mix it from the 7th to the 10th, to the 15th, to the 20th. Just hitting get. He's trying to pretend he was looking for somebody, but he really was in front of the heater. Good tackle, five, two, let's go. Yes, sir. Rogers takes the snap, deep drop, looking. Under some heat flushed out to his right. Now big chase. Sadie! Sliding to the left. Hey, double sliding to the left. How's it going, man? I love Nashville, bro. Yeah, I lived down there. I got a crib down there. Oh, do you? Yeah. Oh, really? We'll get what you want. Where you at? Cincinnati Bengals on their way to Nissan Stadium for a Playmakers game. We'll tell you more about that. Cincinnati 6 and 4, Titans 7 and 3. It's a big win in the AFC, and Titans All Access, and AB Wells, has your Titans game ticket. All right, Mike. This is my cue. The Cincinnati Bengals are coming to town, and there's a lot going on at Nissan Stadium. It's our Playmakers game, which highlights the important contributions of women, including the game's 12th Titan, Tennessee State University President, Glenda Glover. Rising star, Brooke Eden, is performing the national anthem while Lainey Wilson is the halftime singer. The Titans are collecting new or gently worn coats for the community drive of the game. And Mike Keith, you're especially going to like this one. The gate giveaway is a calendar that features Titans and their furry friend. Yes, I thought you were going to say ice cream, but that's good too. No, Camelander's with pops and goodies on them. There you go. It's very nice.   She's a huge deal.  Maybe she'll bring her big awards with her and everything. That would be cool. And the Titans want to get to 8 and 3. That's really all that counts. And we're going to be there with Titans Radio on the air at 11 AM Central. Amy Wells and Ryan have Titans Countdown. Kickoff 1202 Titans in the Binkal Sunday at Nissan Stadium. For Amy Wells and our outstanding crew, Mike Keith says, thanks for watching Titans All Access, and we'll see you next time.
