So how do we get more visibility on our Instagram content is a good idea to run some ads for even our what's what's called stage one content. Those of you who have never heard of my stage 123 content creation, I will just briefly remind you what they mean. Stage one content is exploratory. It's more casual. You should take the least amount of time doing it as possible and prolific put as much stage one content out there as possible you just exploring ideas experimenting. It could be through video. It could be through carousel posts. It could be through a certain image and then with some captions on Instagram. Basically anything you post for the first time online, even if you've worked for it, worked on it for eight years. The first time it touches the online audience. It's still stage one, because that's the first time you're getting any kind of market signal, whether or not it makes sense to people, right. So stage one, if it's going to take you either eight years, or, you know, 18 minutes to make a stage one content try to take 18 minutes, maybe not 18 minutes some of you know him of us. Don't write as fast so maybe it'll take us, you know, 45 minutes to write a stage one piece of content so just put it out there as fast as you can or record a, you know, three minute video five minute video and you might you might do three takes, even with stage one content you could do three takes. So maybe it takes you, you know, 20 minutes to make a three to five minutes stage one content and you put it on, you know, Instagram or whatever so stage one that's the stage two is stage two is when you look back on your stage one content for the first month, you notice which ones made the more most impact, and you take that, and then you improve on it to say oh that one really struck a chord with people. Let me now improve on that maybe integrate some of the comments that they gave me or questions or have some other ideas for it. And let me repeat that content now with more refined ideas or you know, a better story or taking some miscellaneous of it, you know, so stage two is improving and resharing, or maybe taking a video and turning into a written piece or taking a written piece and turning into a video so that's all stage two type of actions. And then stage three is to take the best of your stage two, and turning it into a product online course, a book, a webinar, a service coaching package, you know. Anyway, so, you know Nick here is asking a good question like is stage one content like if we're just starting an Instagram audience. You know it's, it's like barely anyone is seeing our stuff. Right. So of course we put stage one things out there but how do we grow an audience when we have no. On Instagram, most of most of us actually grow our audience when we start to follow some of our colleagues, you know on Instagram, and then they some of them will follow us back right like some of your friends and colleagues. On Instagram, Instagram will ask you whether you want to connect your Facebook or, or like hey can I can I look at your contacts, contact list on your phone, and see if you know anyone else on Instagram. And that's usually the first, you know, our first 20 followers or 50 followers or whatever it may be is to follow a bunch of people you already know that you actually care about, and then some of them will follow you back. Beyond that, you can then poke around an Instagram, maybe search hashtags, right hashtags, I think of hashtags as a community. Hashtag is not, you put 30 of them, it just blasted out into hope, hopefully somebody of the 30 of hashtags will find you. I think that's a, I think that's a very in an effective way, and in an efficient way I mean come on you got to copy and paste three hashtags and by the way the algorithms don't like it, because it just looks spammy to people and by the way if you're going to put hashtags put it as your first comment, don't put it in your caption. That's, that's beginner stuff, you know, beginner mistake is put up the hashtags in the caption no no put it in the first, add a comment and put the hashtag there anyway. So I don't even use hashtags on Instagram, because I've tested them. And it's such pitiful reach on using hashtags I'm like, okay yay I reach 15 people with hashtags and you might say George 15 is better than what I'm doing now fine okay use hashtags me in the beginning. But like, I can take $5 for an Instagram ad and reach 500 people targeted people. It's like, research hashtags and reach 15 people. On the one hand, or spend $5 on the now I'm doing Instagram real right like you can imagine this as an IG real 15 30 hashtags and that reach 30 people or spend $5 and reach 500 targeted people like which one pick one what's what's better use of your time and what looks better. People don't like to see hashtags I mean, three hashtags okay you know but 30 hashtags people like yeah that's a desperate Instagram or that person doesn't know how to use Instagram. All the all the not not all. Most of the expert Instagram is don't use 3031 hashtags right. They use a few. And a lot of them like me don't even use any at all, because we know how to run ads and it's like $5 come on, you can spend $5 you reach more people with $5. Then you would a whole month of using hashtags so what's the point you know it's like, okay you can spend $10 and double that right. So, so back to the question. But I wanted to say a bit about hashtags long on it. If you will use hashtags, like I said, it's not. It's free traffic, but don't just do random stuff. I think of hashtags as a community of people. That's really the most authentic and effective way of looking at it so before you start using a hashtag you should search that hashtag. And so, who are these people that are posting here, and do I want to be net caring with these people that are posting here on this, because if I do, because guess who follows hashtags, the people who use them. I mean, you're, you're reaching your, your colleagues you're reaching your peers your niche major not reaching potential clients. You're reaching people who might share your stuff with their audience and they're your potential clients.  And if it is people you like it's a post that you like I want to show up here to it it makes sense. Then yes, you might then actually follow some of them. Right.  And then they they might follow you a few of them I follow you back okay. So, that's how we get our first few followers right friends colleagues and maybe the hashtag people that we want to connect with. And follow hashtags to right because then you'll start to find new people as as they post hashtags. And then, step two, if you want to use you find some hashtags that you really like the kinds of people that are posting there. Go ahead and use it. Like I said, three hashtags proposed doesn't look spammy. It looks respectable. Go ahead and do it, you know. But, like I said, you know, you could do all that for years and still just be reaching a few hundred people, when you could spend $10 and reach up to 1000 people. You know, are targeted people fans of Brené Brown fans of Eckhart Tolle fans of Pema children or Tara Brock or Tony Robbins or name the influencer you want to reach fans of theirs. You know, so the answer is sorry for such a long answer Nick. Yes. Tell us are going to grow your audience. I mean, I'll say one more besides hashtags and paid ads Instagram ads Instagram boost, etc. The other common way of growing your audience on Instagram is collapse collapse are basically you as so many ways of doing it and you'll see people doing it but the most common way of collab collaboration on Instagram is to do an Instagram live with somebody else. I mean, you probably have seen people doing that.   This is a mistake people make 10am Pacific like 20% of your audience isn't the correct time zone.  Yeah, okay, announce it. And then once the time comes, one whoever the host is right whoever is helping the other really the host is the one promoting it essentially the other person can promote it later through their stories. And maybe download the video and upload it themselves but you the host starts the IG live. And of course the other person has to be ready on IG like waiting waiting for the host right so the host starts IG live and the other person waits, waits for the host to start and it goes and joins the IG live as a viewer. And then once the host sees that the speakers there as a viewer, they can invite that viewer to become a speaker of the IG live and now now you've seen that before that's like, you know, two people up top and bottom they're talking to each other. So that's the most common way and Nick, you know, how we do collapse, you know who we reach out to is basically people with a similar sized audience as you. Yeah, this is free. Right. You know how to pay money for this. You just have to pay for some potential rejection when you reach out to somebody because not everyone's been say yes in fact it's been a minority of people will say yes, unfortunately.  It might be worth doing it. Now, you're going to get a higher yes rate. If you if the message you send them is more thoughtful than generic. I get a lot of generic DMs and make a tell they basically copy pasted that to a thousand people. Okay, but it's like, George, I am just, I'm so grateful for your for your kind of content out there. I really like your recent posts about authentic this or blah blah blah. And you know, I have a similar audience, you know, I think we both share audiences of blah blah blah blah. And, you know, and we have a similar sized audience as well and I wonder what if what if we do an IG live together. I think it will help grow both of our audiences. And even even if you even if you have only, you know, 100 followers on Instagram, right. And someone else has between 50 and 300 followers, some kind of ratio like that. Okay, so if you have 100 look for someone between 50 and 300. I usually 50 and 200 that's, but it's like you can stretch it, you can stretch on the high end a little bit if you're bold enough to reach out to someone with three times the size your audience. If you have 300 people, you reach out to someone between 100 and 1000.  So you just keep on doing that kind of IG live. And when when when once that happens. By the way, not, not all of your speakers that you interview or have a conversation with are willing to promote it so don't pressure anybody, but just let them know when it's when it's up when it's recorded. And they can easily share it as a story or you could even give it to them as a video file you download the IG live you give it to them as a Google Drive video file and say hey you are welcome to upload this as an IG TV IG video as well if you'd like. And if you do please tag me I love to see that you know. But that's so so long story to free ways of growing your IG audience hashtags, thoughtfully, as a more of a community feel and collapse. Most people just do it that way, because people don't know how to do Instagram ads. But if you can do Instagram ads, you're just saving your shaving years off of your audience building this, you can reach thousands every month just targeted, you know just like So yes, it's still worth doing now, you might say well George, I just have stage one content so. But Nick, the thing is, remember, we start off with our colleagues our friends and peers right that follow you back. And we might start off with some hashtag colleagues that we started to get to know and they might follow us back. You're going to get. And let me ask you Nick, are you getting at least one like proposed. Do some of your posts get at least one like. Yes, I, of course, average song, at least five to 15. Oh, well there you go. Okay, well that's better than that's better than someone who's starting out. But I was just speaking to the person who's starting out I'm like, if you're starting out. Do you get at least one like sometimes on some of your posts and the person will say well yeah of course I get one like no not not from your mom. Not from somebody else other than your family, you get one like. If so, that one like is more than the others that got zero likes. So the three stages of content still apply. The thing that got one like made an impact because remember every single one like you get represents multiple likes, because multiple people enjoyed it just only one person bothered to click like others like oh wow that's cool and then kept just always remember that one like equals who knows between two to 10 to 20 people who like to enjoy it. Okay, one comment, positive comment is even more representative because someone has to actually type out a comment represents you know five to you know 30 other people who enjoyed it but didn't come out of the comment. So yes, even one like represents who that one is worth running an ad on you see what I mean. Obviously Nick you're if you're averaging five to 15 you have plenty of data, you know this one got this one got five likes. This one got 15. Now you know. So, yeah, hope this helps. Alright and a couple of related comments I'm going to bring forward. Thanks to Chris says that Brock Johnson was explaining that hashtags are like a folder like a filing system yeah hashtags yeah can be seen as that so it's a community of content creators who are saying hey everyone. This is about this topic, and you might get inspiration. So really think of a hash like I said hashtags the community of net caring. Find find peers that you can collaborate with, but it's also a community of inspiration content like hey other content similar to this topic might inspire your own say help. I have my thing to say about that to right like that's how you can get content ideas is through through hashtags and faith also said some hashtags are really bloated like several million followers right or several million posts for a very generic hashtag like hashtag boss babe. I don't really like that or hashtag winning. Come on. Yeah, like who are who are remember, like, even if you're one of your hashtag winning just remember the people you're reaching are really generic and, and you don't want to you don't want people following you that are not really your ideal ideal clients or ideal collaborators because if you have generic people following people who are not your ideal clients or collaborators, you will run up your ad costs over in the future when you say George I'm ready to run ads. I'll be like, Have you been using hashtags or like hashtag winning, because now you have to pay a lot more for ads, because your warm audience is now huge. You know people who have checked out your account is now in the tens of thousands and you have to pay a lot more. Sorry, you didn't take my class because no you want to keep your Instagram audience small and targeted. No one ever tells you this.  That's in madness. I'm always trying to push people away who are not my ideal people I want. I want 10,000 10,000 ideal clients or ideal collaborate great.  So anyway, that's why that's why you should use it like faith is saying you do do a smaller hashtag where it's really more of a community and you're reaching people that are really, you know, good people you want to actually reach more of. So, we're calling great question. Before starting to run Instagram ads, should I already have a certain amount of content. Absolutely not. I'm glad you asked it. I started running ads for a partnership I was working with where we were starting and I ran ads from day one we have one post one ad, you know, put it out there, and then just just build it up over time. Obviously, some people who look at your most people who look at our ads Instagram ads are just going to engage right there, like they're not going to go to your profile, they're just going to, they're going to engage and comment or whatever and then they're going to keep moving on. And reach them again because the fact that they either liked it, or they scrolled on the carousel, or they commented any of those are engagement signals that then allow you to run ads to them. Again, it's called a warm audience ad, which is why you want the right people doing that, not just people doing it, right.   Once a month for $5 $10 really good deal, you know you continue nurturing the people who have commented or liked or whatever so. But yes, over time, obviously you're going to post more and, and once you have like three or six posts, that's enough. But even starting with one like I said you know that kind of extreme example I think it's really, really fine as well. So, let's see here. Okay, and colleague asked me any tips I want to share for IG ads. Basically, take your stage to content and run IG ads with them. So in other words, that's the most efficient way of doing it because you already see that it's making an impact, especially ideally content that has at least one positive you know, and if you have like a buddy of yours, and you're like doing some IG ads together and you can buddy up and say hey, hey, Mira, I'm about to run an ad on this one. Would you mind just adding a positive comment like, and ideally more than amen, you know, amen explanation mark or more than more than like a heart or a fire icon, like just try to add a few words. Like if it's a few because basically thoughtful comments beget more thoughtful comments. And so when, when people see it, they're like, oh, that's the etiquette of this post and I'm going to. So yes, that's that's my biggest tip is stage two content and try to have a thoughtful comment if possible.


In today's session, I'll be covering the topic of craft consensus algorithm and demonstrate the uses in the acolyte-distributed database. I'm grateful for the Euro-Python community to be providing me with this opportunity. Let me quickly introduce myself. I'm Tanya Thne and I currently work as a software engineer at a financial services firm. During my work, I have interacted with a number of database systems like DynamoDB, AuroraDB, and JogCV, and I'm passionate about building high-performance systems around these databases. In the past, I have also worked with computer vision and game theory, and I love to keep reading about these technologies. I also spend my time volunteering for social initiatives and have recently participated in a number of initiatives that have been organized by my firm. In my free time, you can find me painting, listening to an audiobook, or planning my next trip. Without further ado, let's dive into the topic. I'll be discussing distributed system and how they can be useful and the challenges associated with them. Then we look at a particular problem of establishing consensus and discuss the draft consensus that got them in detail. At the end, we look at draft in action using the acolyte database and see how we can send commands using Python. The topic of distributed systems is VAT, and this talk is a beginner discussion on the topic, and it will enable you to read up more on distributed systems. So, what are distributed systems and why are they needed? In today's world, data has become an entity of utmost importance. Whether you are scrolling through social media, ordering a pizza, making a transaction, booking a doctor's appointment, or even using the JPS, you are turning and using a lot of data. Therefore, it is important that the systems that work with it are designed to be able to handle such large sales and meet the demands of speed with which the application should run. Let us try to understand the need of distributed systems to an example. Say, I own a social media company and I store all of my data and run the application on a single machine. This is clearly a recipe for disaster life. If the machine crashes for whatsoever reason, the application will become unavailable. Moreover, if the disk gets corrupted, we could end up losing all of the information. Even when the system is up and running, all of the requests are being directed to one particular machine. This would lead to an immense workload on the system. And let's say your users are located geographically apart, then those data situated part of the data center would experience a lot of latency. Distributed systems can come to a rescue over time. It is designed to distribute the processing load, data, and resources across multiple nodes. So our system becomes more scalable. And since all of the information is distributed, is replicated across multiple nodes, we also introduce data redundancy. So if one of the hosts crashes, we do not end up losing all of the information. Moreover, the users can connect to the data center that is closest to them, and this way they would give experience minimum latency. We also introduce fault tolerance. Say one of the nodes crashes, we can design our system in such a way that the connection of the user is now being redirected to another node. These systems can range to two node systems, to large-scale systems like that of cloud infrastructure that contains thousands or even millions of interconnected nodes. While distributed systems offer a host of advantages, does it come with caveats? Well, the devil is in the details, isn't it? Unsurprisingly, maintaining a distributed system comes with its own set of challenges. Let us look at some of the problems that we must try to handle if we are working with distributed systems. The first is the issue of consistency and consensus. If the same data is hosted across multiple nodes, we need to ensure that all of it is in the same space. This is made difficult by a number of issues that can arise. Let's say one of your nodes is experiencing network lag and there is a delay in it receiving the changes from other nodes. So it will lag behind the other nodes and the users that are connected to that node would see data that was in the past. Then if a particular node crashes, and by the time it is brought up, a number of instructions are lost. That way the data will surely become inconsistent, right? And we wouldn't want the users to see inconsistent information. We can easily be connected from our laptop and our phone to the application and it could be potentially different servers. We do not want them to see different information, right? Now let us look at the second issue. Hosts would be connected over a network. And once network connections come into the picture, there's always the risk of the channel breaking. As a developer, we must be prepared for handling such scenarios. They can also be additional issues like that of security breach or unbalanced workload between nodes. While all the problems are not in our hand and something unexpected might always happen, it is best that we remain prepared and design our system carefully. In this session, we'll dive deeper into the problem of establishing consensus. So let us try to understand the curious case of consensus. In simple terms, it means getting several nodes to agree on something. This coordination can be facilitated by a node that acts as a leader. For example, if three people are trying to book a seat for a movie theater at around the same time, these nodes would send their request to book a seat to the leader. The leader will make a decision and it will decide which of these nodes got the seat. Let's say node three books the seat. This could be decided in a number of ways. One of the ways could be the fastest request, the earliest request, right? But if the process of achieving consensus is not handled properly, errors like that of double booking are prone to happen. Another situation that can happen is, let's say node one crashes and it did not receive the response that node three successfully booked the seat. In this case, if someone is viewing the browser, what should they see as the status of the seat? This is where consensus comes to rescue. Now, let us try to formally define consensus by a set of properties that must be satisfied. There should be uniform agreement. That is, everyone should agree on the same outcome. The second property is that of integrity. That is, once you have decided, there's no going back. You cannot take a decision twice. Further, a decision must be valid, which means that if a node decides on a value, it must have come from some node in the cluster. One can ask why is this required? Well, this helps out rule-trivial solutions. For example, if your application is continuously deciding on a value of an integer X to be five, irrespective of what the nodes then, it would satisfy the first two properties because the nodes are all agreeing on the value and they are only taking the decision once. But this is clearly faulty, right? Such algorithms would be kept in check by the validity property. Now, this seems like a good enough criteria to reach the center. But if we think these properties do not take how the leader is being collected. It is a design choice. I could say that only one particular node will be the leader of my cluster. What happens if it goes down? My system cannot respond to requests and will have to wait until the leader node is brought up. Here comes the property of termination. It says that a consensus algorithm must progress. Even if some nodes fail, the others must read a decision. But of course, this is not always possible. What happens when all of your nodes crash? Or if we think about it, a majority of the nodes must be up and running for the possibility of reaching a consensus. All right, with that out of the way, let's jump into the Raft Consensus Algorithm. Raft was developed by Diego Ongaro and John Astrohout at the Stanford University in 2014. Please pardon me if I mispronounce the names. It was designed to be easy to understand and is equivalent to the PaXOS algorithm in its performance. For context, PaXOS has been around since 1989 and is considered a Fundamental Consensus Algorithm. It has been widely studied and has inspired the design of previous other practical implementations for consensus protocols. Now, Raft worked by having each node store the data as well as the log of operations that have been performed on it. It ensures agreement on the commands in each server log. So all of the servers would have the same set of logs in the same order. As a result, each machine will process the same order of operations and thus would arrive at an identical state. This algorithm can be thought of as working in two stages. The first stage is that of leader election, where all of the nodes decide who the leader node is. And once that is done, all of the changes would pass to the leader node. So the leader node is now responsible to replicate the changes that it was asked to do in all of the other nodes. Let us look at these stages one by one. So what happens in leader election? So a node according to the Raft algorithm would be in one of the three states. It could be a leader, it could be a follower or it could be a candidate. In this pictorial representation, I am going by color. So green is the leader, blue is the follower and yellow is the candidate. When the cluster starts, all of the nodes would be in a follower state. And if they do not hear from a leader for some time, they can choose to become a candidate. Let's say there are three nodes, A, B and B, all of which are followers and A decides to become a candidate. The candidate will then ask for votes from the other node. And if it receives the majority of votes, it would become a leader. A question that comes to mind is, how long does a follower wait before it must decide to become a candidate? This can be handled, this needs to be handled carefully because if the time is too low, the followers would keep on becoming candidates and there would be elections all the time. This way our cluster would not be able to get anything else done. But if the time is too big, then what could happen is if the leader crashes, you would have to wait a lot of time, wait a long time before another election happens. This is controlled by the election time-out setting. Each node is assigned the value of an election time-out. After, so if a particular node has not heard from the leader for a duration of the election time-out, it can become a candidate. This value of election time-out is randomized to be between 150 to 300 milliseconds. So all of the seconds, sorry, all of the nodes, follower nodes would keep on maintaining time of how long they have not heard from the leader. And once that time hit the election time-out value, they would become a candidate and request votes from the other nodes. Now it could end up, it could happen that we end up having multiple candidates and none of them get a majority of the votes. In that case, a re-electing the trigger. Okay. Now, what happens if there is a scenario where there could be multiple leaders? Well, if the leader node gets disconnected from some part of the cluster, the majority of the cluster, then any of the nodes in the majority would not receive the communication from the leader. They would become a candidate and there would be another leader. Now, if the network is healed and the leader, the older leader comes back, there are two leaders in our cluster, right? We cannot let this situation happen. This could lead to conflict because there are two nodes doing the right and communicating their values for the rest of them. In this case, what happens is we use the election term. So whenever a candidate decides to request for votes, a new election term starts. So when in our example, the older leader comes back and it sees that a new election term has started, it will step down and there would be just one leader. Okay. Now, let us say we have established that A is the leader and we store the value of an integer X, which is currently five. A client connects to the leader and sends it a command to set the value of X to 10. What would the leader do in this case? The first thing that will happen is it will copy over this instruction in its own log. Now, a point to note here is that this value is not yet committed. So the value of X is still five on the node. Then it will instruct its followers to replicate this particular log entry. Now, it will wait for a majority of the followers to perform this replication and then it would update, it would commit the transaction. So at this point, the value of X becomes 10 in the node, in the leader node. The leader then communicates the followers that the commit has been performed. And soon enough, all of the nodes in the cluster reach a consensus on what is the value of the integer X. Okay. Now, I'll do a quick demo using RQ Lite, where I will have four nodes, one, two, three and four, up and running. And one of the nodes is currently a leader. This node will perform transactions and we'll see if the changes have been reflected in the other nodes. Then we'll also see what happens if a node fails. For example, if a leader node fails, a reelection must be triggered and whoever gets the majority of the votes must become the new leader. So the command that is used to start the process looks something like this, which has two important things, the HTTP address and the draft address. Now, the draft address is the port that is used to communicate things related to a draft consensus protocol. And the HTTP address is where the commands are sent by the Gantt. Okay. So in this case, a node with ID two is being established whose HTTP address is 4003 and the draft address is the port 4004. And it is joining an already running host whose HTTP address is 4001. This node is called node two and I'm storing all of the logs in this particular file. Okay. If I see what happens over here. We have just last five minutes remaining for the talk. Sure. So in this case, I have executed a command that is showing me the status of the host at 4001. We'll see that this is the leader node and the other nodes are at 4003, 4005 and 4007. And all of these nodes are the follower nodes. Okay. Right. Now, I am connected to, I started an ArchiLite command line and I'm connected to the port 4001. Here, I will try to create a table. Okay. And let's quickly check that it is created correctly. Yep. And then I try to insert value. Okay. If I try to see what happened to the table, I should be able to see the value of it. Now if I try to do, try to see what happens for the other nodes. So I'll quickly run the command for one of the nodes and connect to 4005 where I will select all from my table. Yep. And it would be replicated another data.  So, yeah, it has been killed. And I try to quickly see, this is a follower. So one of them have to become a leader. Well, 4003 is a follower, 4005 is a follower again. And 4007 now becomes a leader. So you see how it works in action. Now, if you want to do the same thing using Python, we can use PyArchulite, where we'll establish a connection and use the connection cursor to execute the months. And using the same, we can see that the table will be created and values would be inserted. And the same would happen in other nodes of the cluster. Okay. There are a lot of information that is available. And here are the resources that I found much helpful is the book designing data intensive applications, the original paper for us and the demonstration, the simulation provided by Secret Life of Data and Archulite documentation. That brings me to the end of my presentation. Thank you all for listening to the talk. And I hope to see you all again. Thank you. Thank you.


Welcome to Toffy TV, it is the Everton News Daily. According to Alan Myers, there are a number of bids on the table for Everton, or certainly to buy a steak in Everton Football Club. Farad Meshiri has been looking for investment since last summer really. He reiterated the game and speaking to the fab in January, that investment was close, he was close to signing an agreement with someone. MSP have been the main contender shall we say since January. They did have a couple of their delegation over in January when Everton played Southampton, that faithful day. They have been consistent in this all the way through and they've remained the favourites to be the ones to buy into the football clubs. The venture capital group 777, based in Miami, they've been heavily linked with a full takeover that happened last week and this week as well. They're still in the conversations apparently, but also there are other interest parties, no idea where they're from at the moment, but the interest is clearly there for Farad Meshiri, who wants the investment to finish Everton New Stadium as well. It's talking about Everton New Stadium, the last piece of roof structure has been completed on the south stand. That means the north and south stand now have the full roof structure in place. Which is excellent, it's coming along really quickly. I was down there on Sunday just to have a little look and it's huge. You see it right in front here and it's a stadium now, and it's a strange feeling when you're looking at it. I think we're going to be going there to watch Everton every other week. It's a bit of a strange realisation when I saw it the other day because it does now look like a football stadium. Last time I saw it, it was just structures, but it's looking coming along really well. Obviously, that last bit of roof structure has gone in today on the south stand. According to reports in France, St Etienne are ready to buy Niels and Cuncu from Everton, and then sell him immediately to other clubs at a profit. In Cuncu has been in excellent form since joining St Etienne in January, scored lots of goals, created lots of chances, and there's a lot of interest in them. But St Etienne, I thought you have an agreement in place with Everton for around £2.4 million to take the young friends defender to there permanently, and that Everton paid £240,000 when they took him from Marcel under Marcel Brands, but it looks like he may well be back on his way to France permanently. Everton today have again been linked with a move for on-loan Villareal striker Boulay Daya. He is it on-loan at Salon Atana. He has scored 11 goals and got six assists in 28 games this season. He is available for around £12 million this summer. The 26-year-old has been linked with Everton on a few occasions, and this is simply the latest one. According to reports today, Tottenham Hotspur are interested in Jordan Pickford. They are looking for a replacement for Hugh Golarice. They are going to replace him this summer. They took him off a half-time the other day in the 6-1 defeat at Newcastle. Jordan Pickford is high on their list of priorities for this summer, apparently. Pickford had just signed a new deal with Everton to keep him at the football club until the summer of 2027. So, see what happens with that one. And finally, Everton is under 21-side, won 4-1 at Leicester last night. Goals from Ocaroncu to Pater, Stanley Mills and Liam Higgins give Paul Tatman an excellent away victory for goals so on so. Well done, then. That is it for the news today. To give the video a thumbs up, subscribe if you haven't, and if you want more daily live videos, exclusive content, become a Toffee TV Premier Member.

Now, as gunshots echo across the windswept snow-covered reaches of the wild Northwest, Quaker Pop Wheat and Quaker Pop Rice, the breakfast cereals shot from guns, present the challenge of the Yukon. It's Yukon King, swiftest and strongest lead dog of the Northwest, blazing the trail for Sergeant Preston of the Northwest modern police in his relentless pursuit of lawbreakers. Un-King, run! Gold, gold discovered in the Yukon, a stampede to the Klondike in the wild race for riches. Back to the days of the Gold Rush, with Quaker Pop Wheat and Quaker Pop Rice bringing you the adventures of Sergeant Preston and his Wonder Dog Yukon King as they meet the challenge of the Yukon. When it comes to breakfast, I'll skip it.  Say, just listen to this. Nutrition authorities say breakfast should furnish from one quarter to one-third of the day's total food requirement. You mean folks should eat good breakfast? That's right. A lot of folks should eat a better breakfast. Eat a cereal. You can't go wrong if you eat plenty of cereal, fruit, milk, bread and butter. So tomorrow, enjoy a heaping bowlful of delicious Quaker Pop Wheat or Quaker Pop Rice topped with milk or cream and fruit. It's delicious. What's more, for added health benefits, natural grain amounts of vitamin B1, niacin and iron are restored in wheat and rice shot from guns. Yes, and talk about good. Just triumph. Thanks, Mr. That sounds terrific. Yes, everyone loves to eat Quaker Pop Rice and Quaker Pop Wheat. When Sam Jackson retired as constable, he bought out the general store in Horsehead. He was straightening his shelves when the day's first customer came in. It was nine-year-old Bobby Lennox. Well, Bobby, you're shopping on your own today. I'm going... Fine and dandy. I guess this case right here will have what you want. Now, these are two percent, and these come to one cent each, and the candy's right here. You get a whole scoopful for penny. I know. Look them over and make up your mind what you want. Is that your pal from? Yes, sir. He's reading a handle about Grizzly Grayson. I just put that handle up this morning. I reckon a lot of folks will read it. Is it really true that there's a $2,500 reward? That's what it says, Bobby. $2,500 to the man who captures Grizzly Grayson. Oh, golly, that's an awful lot of money. It sure is. But on the other hand, son, Grizzly Grayson is an awful lot of crook. Hello there, Sam. Oh, hi, Lennox. I was just reading that handle. It's a nice reward, huh? $2,500. Gosh, enough to pay up all my debts and take Mary and Bobby and me back to the States with enough left over to see us through till I get some kind of a job. You're not counting on that reward, buddy, are you? No, I'm not counting on it. But there's no law to keep a man from dreaming. What's this Grizzly Grayson look like? All I know about him is right on that handle outside the door. Heavy beard, shaggy hair, and eyebrows. Quick shooting with either hand. I read all that. They say Grizzly's mighty tricky, too.  That's why he's been able to stay out of the hands of the horse so long. Sam, that's gunfire. There's something going on across the street outside the bank. Let me get this door open. That one! It's Grizzly Grayson. Can you hear that, Lennox? Someone said it's Grizzly Grayson. I see him. He's firing at anyone he sees. Grizzly Grayson, eh? Well, I'm going to get that truck. Lennox, hold on. Come back here. You're no matrix.  Why are you taking this? Lennox! Lennox! Bobby, look out. Get back out of the way. His pocket's bulging with stolen cash. Grizzly Grayson kept two guns blazing as he raced across the hard-packed snow to the end of the short street where a strong horse waited. Come on, Bobby. Two men lay on the snow in the middle of the road between the bank and the general store. One of these was Lennox, the father of Bobby. Let me have a look, Bobby. Let me see how hard your dad's here. I'm sorry, Bob. I'm downright sorry. There's nothing I can do to help you, Pa. And by Juniper, I swear I'm going to do my level best to see that justice is done. Oh, won't! Won't, Daddy, ever! Isn't he? He is gone, Bob. It'll comfort your Ma to know he didn't suffer none. Bob, look who's coming. A dog team. It's more than a dog team. It's Sergeant Preston and his lead dog king. That money couldn't have come here at a better time. Sergeant Preston. I heard the shooting. It was Grizzly Grayson. Lennox here and that other man, you see, got in his way when he came out of the bank after staging another robbery. He was that way. The ones who started out to chase him are coming back. How did he get away? He had a horse waiting at the end of the road. A horse? That's right, ma'am. Howdy, Sergeant Preston. You should have been here five minutes earlier. Grizzly Grayson stuck up the bank. So I hear. I think I'll be done for this man. I'll have a look at the other one. We went after Grizzly until we saw he had a horse. When he hit the saddle, it was no use trying to chase him on foot. How about Lennox over there? He's gone. And this man, he's beyond help too. Boys, there are a few horses here in town. Let's get him and go after that killer. How about you, Sergeant Preston? You want to borrow a horse. It's no too deep for horses, Sam. Boy, we do anything else. Let's do something about Bob Lennox. Oh, boy, young one. Come with me, kid. Bob, you and I have a man-sized job to do. Yes, sir. Your mother must be informed of this robbery and the shooting. You better go with me, son, while I tell her. I'll need your help. Despite the fact that everyone in town admired and respected Sergeant Preston, most of the men thought he was making a mistake when he turned down the offer of a horse and set out on Grizzly Grayson's trail with King and the dog sled. Half a dozen men had started out on horses. They were far ahead of the mountains. Come on. Deep snow had drawn heavily on the strength of the horses. Why didn't Sam Jackson come with us? His horse is stronger than all these. Oh, he wanted to talk to Mr. Pollux in the corner. He's never loved us before he started out. Hey, Constable, look dead ahead. You see that clump of evergreen? Yeah. There's something behind it. Yeah, I just saw it move. I think it's Grayson's horse. See, I told you his horse had tied just as quick as ours. Have your guns ready, boys. I'm ready. Be prepared to shoot on sight. And remember, there's a big reward that's waiting for the man who gets that murder in Grizzly Grayson. Now spread out and close in from all sides. Come on, now. Get up there. Now spread out on the opposite side of a clump of evergreen where an exhausted horse stood silently. But there was no sign of Grayson. Well, where is he? There's no place you can hide near here. Hey, look at that. Don't spoil the footprints in the snow. Boys, he's put it over on us. Same as he's put it over on the lawn in other parts of the Yukon. He planned this job ahead and planned it well. Look at those tracks in the snow. Tracks of a sled and dogs. Yeah, dogs.  We've got no chance of overtaking him with these horses. Well, we'll have to go back to town and get dogs and sleds. We should listen to Sergeant Preston in the first place. We'll probably meet him when we're on the way to town. All right, let's get started. Grayson drove his dogs at a killing pace. Sometimes he rode the runners and sometimes he ran behind the sled. He headed deeper and deeper into the mountains looking for a hiding place. Then he saw a large man bearded like himself who panned one of the many mountain streams. An idea took form in the killer's evil brain. Dogs look like they had a hard pull. Yeah, sure they have. They've gone just about as far as they're going. My name is Baskerman. I've got a shack not far from here if you'd like to rest up. I got other plans. They call for switching hat and parka with you. Hey, put down that gun. All right. Yeah, put it down right on your head. And that'll hold you till I switch clothes. The constable and his men didn't follow their back trail. They returned to town by a more direct route. Therefore missed Sergeant Preston and his dogs. King followed Grayson's trail to the clump of evergreens. There, the mountain read and understood the footprints and snow. We're enough, King. Grayson had a sled and dogs waiting for him. Here's where the dogs were tied. Constable's party must have taken the killer's horse back to town. Looks like it's up to us to run down, grizzly Grayson. Back to work, King. Get the dogs in line. Untake one! Presently, the mount he reached the place where Hank Baskerman had been knocked out. The prospector had regained consciousness, but his head still ached from the blow. He's a little dull. When I come to, I was wearing this hat in parka, and that crook took mine in their place. So that's why King was interested in the parka. Recognized the scent he'd been following. Grizzly Grayson had a heavy beard, too, just like yours. Hey, uh, see, if you suspect that I'm the murderer... Not at all. Look at King. He knows the scent of the boots he's been following continues beyond here. He's trying to tell me. Sounds like your dog's impatient. Look it on our way.  Sam Jackson, owner of the strongest horse in town, had started out long after Sergeant Preston in the hope of finding the man who would kill his friend. He had traveled at an easy gait, saving his horse as much as possible. He had followed the double trail made by Grayson and Sergeant Preston, and he, too, came upon Hank Baskerman. Sam saw the beard and the clothes of the killer and whipped out his gun.   Hey, now, hold on a few seconds. I gotcha at last, your $2,500 prize crook. No, no, no. My name is Hank Baskerman. Your name is Grizzly Grayson. Now listen to me, you jughead. I was slugged by that crook and my clothes stolen. He left that dog team here and went ahead on foot. No likely story. It's the truth, Dad, ready? The body Sergeant was here, and he believed me. Sergeant Preston? I guess so. He went on a huntin' for the killer. I reckon you're tellin' the truth all right enough. Yeah, I am. You can feel the lump on my head. That'll back my story. Maybe you're not Grizzly Grayson. But by Juniper, you'll do. What do you mean? That beard and clothes. You'd fool anyone. You're worth $2,500. Come on, you travelin' back to Horsehead with me. No one in town got a close look at Grayson's face. You'll get biased, Grayson, especially if you admit that you're here. Admit it. You think I'm localized? Stay there. I'm still holdin' a gun on you. But... I'll take you in.  And hang? If I'm not lynched, I'll hang by law. You won't hang, I'll see to that. I'll collect the reward as soon as I turn you in. But I don't want to get out. I'm not asking what you want. That reward goes for Grayson dead or alive. And that's how I'll take the in by thunder. Dead or alive. We'll continue our story in just a moment. Man, oh man, here's a breakfast treat. It's got them all beat. It's Quaker Puff Rice or Quaker Puff Wheat. These famous ready-to-serve breakfast cereals are shot from guns. Yes, Quaker Puff Wheat and Quaker Puff Rice are choice premium wheat or rice grains shot from guns.

He's your guarantee that you're getting the one and only delicious Quaker Puff Rice and Quaker Puffed Wheat. To continue our story, Sam Jackson thought he had captured the notorious outlaw named Grisly Grayson. He was considerably let down when he learned the man was a harmless prospector who had been compelled to change clothes with a fugitive. But Sam was not warned to give up easily. He decided that the townsman and the constable might be fooled as he had been. So he planned to take the prospector into town in the hope of collecting a $2,500 reward. Meanwhile, the real outlaw had kept going deeper and deeper into the mountains after switching clothes with Baskin. Sergeant Preston followed relentlessly with his great dog King picking out the trail. On King, on you hookies! The Māori reached Leblanc Plateau, a wide expanse of mesa that was as flat as the top of a table. Then, far ahead, he saw the killer. There he is, King. That's the man we want. Go on, King, get him. He can't get away. Put toe ends in the shoe drop. Go on, boy! Grayson ran awkwardly. He ran half-turn toward Preston and the dogs. He fired wildly without taking aim. Grayson!  Look ahead! The killer wasn't looking ahead. He was watching the Māori and the charging dog who was much nearer. Watch it, Grayson! There's a drop! Grayson went out in the grip of panic. He didn't hear the sergeant. He didn't look ahead and he didn't see the sudden drop. Suddenly, the big Plateau came to an abrupt end. Look out! Grayson went out into space. When Preston reached the edge of the Plateau, he saw the lifeless form of the killer on the rocks a hundred yards below. Well, King, he beat the law. It's a long roundabout trip to the floor of that canyon, but we'll have to make it, boy. We'll have to bring the body out and see if we can find the stolen cash. Get the dogs in line, King. We'll get started. It was a hard trip to the rocks where Grayson had died, an even harder trip back to town. It was evening when the Mountie and his tired dogs met the constable at the edge of Horsehead. The dogs halted and flopped to the snow at a rest. Well, Sergeant, glad to see you got back here.  Wild goose chase? Yep. Old Sam Jackson put it over on all of us. Went out single-handed and brought back the killer. The killer? Sure. Grayson. Grisly Grayson. Brought him back alive. Oh, you got ahead of the Sam. You mean to say Sam Jackson brought in Grayson? That's right. He's in the jailhouse and he says meek is a lamb. How did Jackson get him? Well, me and a posse went out on horses, but had to come back for dogs. Sam started later and didn't travel fast enough to wear out his horse. Just kept going till he found Grayson in camp. Got the drop on him and brought him in. Hmm. What's the matter, Sergeant? Did the prisoner admit that he was Grayson? Oh, sure. How could he deny it? A dozen men identified him. By his clothing? Clothing and his beard. All in money. Well, that hasn't been found. I guess Grayson will keep the hide-and-place a secret and the hope he can make a deal with the law. Return the cash for leniency. Has Jackson applied for the reward? Sure he has. He's got a right to it. He has not? What? Grayson's not in jail. He was killed trying to escape. His body and the cash he stole from the banker on my sled. Under that road down. All right, then who's the... Oh, guys, Sergeant Preston. I just don't know what to make of it. The prisoner admitted he was Grisly Grayson. Jackson's trying to get away with something. We'll find out what it is. Have you got any idea who's in jail taking Grayson's name? Yes, if he's wearing Grayson's clothing, he's probably an old prospector from the Hills. A man named Baskin. Hey. Take care of my dogs and sled and Grayson's body. Will you, Constable? Yeah. But what are you going to do? I'm going to see the prisoner. Oh, Jim Herkimer's on guard. You know him. Yes. He'll unlock the door for you. All right. I'll see you later. Come on, King. Here you are, Sergeant Preston. Be careful. Grayson's dangerous. So have heard. Come on, King. Call if you want anything. Well, Baskin? I... I'm Grayson. Grayson, eh? You've changed your name since we met in the Hills. Fooled you, didn't I?  Fooled your dog, too. You didn't fool anyone. What's the idea, Baskin? Did Sam Jackson promise you a share of the reward he hopes to collect? I told you my name was Grayson. Baskin, you can't get away with this. We'll see. We'll see. For the last time, will you tell me the truth? I said I was Grayson. I'm sticking to it. Very well. I've given you a chance to come clean. Put on that parking. Park it. Why? It's a cold night, and it's a long way to Whitehorse. Whitehorse? I'm not going to Whitehorse. Oh, yes, you are. But he... I... I want it here in Horsehead. Grayson's already been tried and convicted of murder in Whitehorse. The hangman's waiting. Now get into that parka. Hold on, mister. This ain't right. Don't tell me the law. But I... I didn't... The parka. Goodbye. No, no, I... I'm putting it on. Don't... don't set that dog on me. But listen, Sergeant... Open this door. Tell the constable I'm taking the prisoner to the hangman in Whitehorse. No, I... I don't want to hang him. This way, Grayson. Just go straight ahead. I didn't figure on things turning out like this. Now listen, Sergeant, I like to... Yes, you said your name was Baskin. You certainly fooled me when we met in the hills. Fool king, too. No, no, I... I don't mean that. Just now I lied. I'm not Grayson. I am Baskin. I said it was Grayson because Sam Jackson promised me a share of the reward. Why would you want a share of the reward? What good would it do you if you're going to hang? Sam said I wouldn't hang. He promised to get me out of jail, and he swore it set me free. Oh, wait a minute, Herkham. So Jackson was going to set you free. When? Tonight. He said he'd come masked and overpower the guards. Jackson said that. No one would ever know I wasn't Grisly Grayson, so Sam figured he could collect the reward for bringing me in, even if I did get loose. I see. I didn't have no choice. Jackson said I could come willingly and have a share of the reward, or he'd shoot me and bring me in dead. Where can I find Sam Jackson? Well, he said he was going to call him Mrs. Lennox. Was her husband who was shot this morning by Grisly? Oh, yes, Bobby's mother. I know where she lives. I'll see Jackson there. I'd like to call on Jackson with you, Sergeant Preston. No, Herkhamer. You take Bascom to the edge of town and see who starts back to his camp. You're letting me go.  Yes, sir. I won't give you no more trouble. Go with him, Herkhamer, and be sure he leaves town. Herkhamer left the jail with Bascom, and a minute later, Sergeant Preston and the Great Dog King made their way through the darkness to the house that had been saddened by the murder of Bob Lennox. Through the window, the Mountie saw Sam Jackson talking to the widow. I'd like to know what he's telling Herkhamer. The two were at the far end of the small house. The window at the rear? If we go around with that, we may be able to hear him. I don't like to use John King, but this is a mighty unusual situation. With his dog, the Sergeant moved to a rear window. Inside, Sam Jackson was talking to Mrs. Lennox. You might just as well take that cash, Mrs. Lennox. You sure got a right to it. Mr. Jackson, $2,000. The reward for Grizzly Grayson is $2,500. And by rights, it should go to your husband. He was after that reward when he went gunning for Grayson this morning. What's more, he'd have got the honorary killer if he hadn't had the bad luck to stop a bullet. Now, you take that cash and I'll see that Bob's debts are paid up out of the other $500. But you haven't collected the reward. This is really your own money. I'll collect when the reward is paid. But you can't wait. Bob wanted you and his son to be back in the States. If you leave here first thing in the morning, you can just about catch the last boat. You wait around till the reward is paid and you'll have to wait till the spring thaw. Well, he'd want you to take that cash and get out of the Yukon. So you just get your things together and figure out starting out tomorrow morning. What? You, Baxter. What is it?  What does this mean? We've come to see this crook. Now, you'll see him. We know all about your scheme. The banker will fix you. You bet I will. Bank of Morton. Herkimer told me everything. Jackson, you tried to pass off a man named Baskham as Grizzly Grayson, the crook who robbed my bank. Now, please, listen, Mr. Morton, you hope to collect the reward for that crook's cash. I'm surprised you didn't try to collect my personal reward as well. But then you couldn't collect that without recovering the bank's money that was stolen this morning. You mean he didn't really catch your Grizzly Grayson? No, he didn't. We ought to throw Jackson in jail. I'll fix him. I'll break you, Jackson. I'll use all my influence to put you out of business. Well, I didn't mean no harm. I wasn't going through with any claims for that reward. I just wanted to help Mrs. Lennox. I knew she wouldn't do that. Mrs. Lennox, I knew she wouldn't take no cash from me, but I figured she'd take it if she thought it was rewarding. I like this story. I'm telling the truth. I don't believe you. I do. It's Sergeant Preston. Sergeant, where'd you come from? I was outside the back window. I heard most of what went on. I'm satisfied that Jackson simply wanted to help Mrs. Lennox. I don't think he had any selfish aims. He's already given his own money to Mrs. Lennox. At best, he could only break even if he collected the reward for the capture of Grizzly Grayson. How about the thousand dollars I offered for the return the money stolen from my bank? Do you have it with you, Mr. Morton? Yes, I got it ready when I heard about the capture.  Well, no. Then how could Jackson claim it fraudulently? There's no way Jackson could benefit by putting Baskham in jail in Grayson's place. He did it only to help the wife and son of his best friend. Here, Sam. I can't take this money now that I know it's your own cash and that you'll not get it back. Dad read it. You won't be able to go back to the States like Bob wanted.   You're wrong, Herkimer. Grayson didn't escape. He's dead. He was killed when he fell into a canyon. I brought him back. And Mr. Morton, I've also brought back your money. You have? All of it? I'm sure you'll find it intact. Well, then you, Preston, you're entitled to the reward. No. King's the one who ran the upload on. Your dog? Yes. Well, in that case, I suppose the dog will claim the reward. The government reward for the capture of Grayson will not be claimed. As for your personal offer of a thousand dollars for the return of the money stolen from your bank... I'll pay it. I'll be glad to pay it. King has no use for money. I suggest you give it to Mrs. Lennox. That's the chicken. That'll take her and Bobby back to the States. How about it, Morton? Well, I'll be happy to. I'll bring you a cash within the next half hour. Very well. Here, Mrs. Lennox, I guess I can take the sergeant's word that the cash will be in my hands soon. Here, take this money now. Oh, Mr. Morton. Sergeant Preston and Sam Jackson. I'm so grateful to all of you.  King's embarrassed. Come on, King, we'll get the bankers' cash and then we'll call this case closed.

He was been so badly mistreated that he feared and hated all men. He was known as a killer. But I couldn't believe that he was really vicious at heart. That's why I agreed to train him. To try and train him, I should say. It was dangerous work every second of it. And I was more than thankful I had King to help me. Be sure to hear this exciting adventure one day.
