Everyone's getting going again starting to get busy. It's what's seven in the morning Eastern time here in North Bay, Ontario Just going to walk the weasel here Get him some fresh air, stretch his legs, do his business And run over there grab some timmies.  That was the town I was trying to remember yesterday Angcaster, Ontario And then we've got Ottawa But I think Ottawa's tomorrow morning. So I think I've only got two deliveries today Should make for a bit of an easier day not so rushed. Hopefully This will see what happens. Thanks for joining me. Hey, if you haven't already hit the subscribe button make a new video pretty much every day The day can now begin. Just look at my delivery slips here. The next town is Angcaster, Ontario now I thought that that would be close to North Bay because that would make sense right because we came from the Toronto area Around Oshawa up to North Bay this morning and then I thought I'd run over to Ottawa. Angcaster is by Hamilton That's like between Mississauga and and Hamilton there So I go all the way back down to the Toronto area the other side of the GTA and Then come back up to Ottawa for tomorrow Why wouldn't they have had me deliver Angcaster while I was right by Angcaster? There's a strict order that I have to follow right because the trailer is loaded in order I wouldn't have been able to get to that to Angcaster before today I guess I could have gone there this morning Then I could have gone from Oshawa back to Angcaster then back up here to North Bay and then to Ottawa That would have even made more sense But they sent me up here to North Bay now I've got to go back down to the Toronto area and then all the way back up to Ottawa which Ottawa's like right over there It's not that far away from here That's a strange delivery sequence, but I have to follow the sequence, right? Don't ask questions trucker Josh. Just do your job All right, so we're going back down to the GTA for three boxes Three boxes. That's it. I could carry them. I could put them in the back of a Honda Civic All right They want that to be the delivery sequence that'll be the delivery sequence trucker Josh doesn't ask questions He just whines and complains Doesn't really matter to me because I get paid for it either way What's this? Oh, it's nothing. I get paid for it either way. So I Actually make more money out of this route by them routing me this way. It's not my fault. They told me to do so. Hey I'll take it Maybe next time they'll Do the this road I think was created by someone in Illinois those so they may not be familiar with this area They probably thought that like North Bay Ottawa and Toronto are like neighbors. They're actually quite a little ways apart We're a pretty big country Ontario is a very big province and this is just southern Ontario.  Okay We were just down here. Okay, so here's Detroit. So you guys know about where we are here, right? There's Detroit, there's the US. Okay, and Here's Toronto. This is where we were yesterday So we came all the way up here to North Bay. That's four hours north My next stop is back down in Toronto, and then I got to go Back all the way over here to Ottawa See, I could have delivered this yesterday. I would have had time and Then gone up to North Bay and then to Ottawa, right? But now instead of just going from North Bay over here to Ottawa I got to go all the way down and back down to Toronto and then back To Ottawa and then we go to Montreal after that, which is a great next door right there So it's whatever like I said Doesn't really matter to me because I'm getting paid for it, but it's not exactly the most efficient routing Hold by you So maybe there's a reason they routed me this way, you know, maybe it was like a scheduling appointment time type of reason Who knows? Doesn't really matter to me either way It just makes me go, huh? So off we go. It's a four-hour drive plus traffic Plus stops plus bathroom breaks stuff like that. So We are still on schedule. We got to deliver there at 2 p.m Get out of North Bay here. Look at the fall colors. Hey, this is what I was talking about Like look at this straight here like bright orange bright red Northern Ontario is just amazing Amazing in the fall time We've delivered our freight now we're on because yesterday told you they I had to make sure that they wouldn't take People's product Well, it turns out they didn't take enough They left some of their own on there like six big boxes So I got a swing by their place there on the way to Ottawa because right on the way and drop Kilometers keep to the right on highway 401 East RTE 401 It's not really a big deal because I guess it's right on the way Literally just off the highway But if it wasn't man, that's ironed the bill they signed the bill saying that they received everything in good order Clearly they didn't count bit of smooth drive through Toronto only got flipped off once His whole family in his truck and he was weaving in and out of traffic and cutting off truck after truck after truck Trying to get ahead traffic was that much more of a standstill than this cut off the truck Who's coming up beside me and he almost got rear-ended and then I ended up pulling up beside him because traffic was out of Standstill and I was just looking at him right. I didn't say anything. I didn't roll my window down I didn't make any gestures. Nothing. I didn't look at him and I shook my head just once like That's really cuz I'm looking in the back seat.  So I just you know shook my head and I looked away. I also I hear yelling, right? Like well, what's this now? I look over them. The guy has his passenger window rolled down because he's on my driver's side, right? He's leaning over his wife swearing and yelling at me and giving me the finger wife. Obviously he's turning beet red. She's so embarrassed I don't blame her but I worry about families like that, you know because You all see it too. These people are out there. You've probably met a few of them on the road, right? They're in the wrong.  They get mad at you That's if it's your fault for existing in that time and space they explode, right? I'm just thinking I'm looking at him. I didn't roll my window down. I was looking at him shaking my head even more I'm like if he's willing To swear a stranger up and down and give the finger to a random person on the road that he just cut off And the things he was saying and I'm looking in the back seat And if he's willing to say that in front of his children and with his wife right in the middle, he's leaning right over her Like I wonder if he's got that short of a fuse. I'm worried about that family How angry does he get at home if that little bit triggers him into that kind of rage? Well, that's our good deed for the D for the for the day or for the week the day and the week deke Brought these cases back where they belong They had signed the paperwork and said that they received everything So I showed up there like but our paperwork says we got everything Somebody didn't count right so they went and looked it up. Yeah, no kidding They overlooked those five so they were very thankful that I brought them their product I could have just dumped it somewhere and no one would have ever known but you don't do that Gotta bring it here. They paid for it belongs to them and it was right on my way. It literally two minutes out of my way, so So I'll show you what we got left Inside the trailer not too much The majority of it's going to Ottawa tomorrow morning So Ottawa in the morning and then we have Montreal in the afternoon Put these all away. I had these all organized This trailer was loaded really weird Supposed to be all loaded in sequence, right? But it's all mixed up like this stuff for them They didn't unload it yesterday because it was buried behind two other deliveries So what were they supposed to do? Unload the whole trailer pick apart their stuff and then put everything back in like that's not their job to do that It's supposed to be loaded in sequence It's one of the worst trailers I've had in a while Well, we're here in all the nation's capital Gotta deliver right across the street tomorrow morning shouldn't take too long I think it's just like a few boxes and then the rest goes into Montreal And then we got to go pick up our reload and book it back home. I want to get back home I haven't spent too many nights in our new house yet and Britt and her stepmom have done amazing work making it like home Already unpacking settling in I can't wait to get there and see it But for now me and the weasel here are going to watch the presidential debate in the US Because it should be pretty entertaining And I'm sure that's gonna get the comment section right lit up So that'll help you with YouTube algorithm, right? Let's see what I did there I said the loud part quiet quiet part loud again Well the debate's not gonna watch itself Have a good night everybody and I'll talk to you tomorrow


Moscow continues to impose Russian passports on residents in Ukraine's occupied areas. In Geneshevsk, district of the Kursan region, Russian invaders are threatening to deport locals without Russian passports, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces reported. The occupiers are forcing Ukrainians to receive Russian passports by threatening them with deportation, the General Staff said. It noted that additional groups of Russian soldiers have been stationed in some settlements of Karkovka district in Kursan. The invaders are now moving into civilian homes while residents opposing this face the threat of eviction. Recently, the enemy has boosted counterintelligence measures in Kursan province, which is temporarily occupied, the General Staff stressed. In particular, the number of checkpoints on the roads between residential areas has increased significantly. Vehicles and documents are being thoroughly checked.


Yeah, hi, I Sometimes pretend to be a cryptographer, but at the moment I'm involved in a startup that's doing data mining for real estate. It's called Deckard and What we do is we find out interesting stuff about people and their properties and we sell it to the government Now by way of anecdote governments are not smart So here's here's the anecdote. Okay, so back in the 1970s 7400 series TTL proves I'm old we the Australian government put out a tender for these chips and of course all of the chips at the time were produced in the US except Japan was trying to get in the game and Japan put in a tender that was much much much cheaper than the Australian that sorry than the US people and They won the tender and when the chips arrived We it had a note. We don't know why you specified 5% defective chips, but we packaged them separately for your convenience so Recently Recently we had the same kind of interaction with I'll just drop a hint here that I live in San Diego And it was probably my local county we're tendering to give data to the government and They had they said oh, no, you can't just have a contract you have to go through the tender process the RFQ process So they put out an RFQ But the only template they had for think for an RFQ was things like light bulbs or office chairs or whatever and and it says give us 250 and We will choose 50 at random and test them and give you back the other 200 You know, this is just what they do stuff like this Except of course, we're selling them data and we can't give them 250 and then take back the 200 that they've already seen So of course I came up with the trivial Zero knowledge proof basically given them a spreadsheet with slightly obfuscated addresses and a nonce and a hash and It's essentially a really cheap and nasty zero knowledge proof that there's no duplicates that it really is You know that when you chose the particular sequence number that that's the one you ended up getting It all sort of worked So you have to seed the hashes with different nonces so that you know You can't just do a trivial address matching thing because there's only a million properties in San Diego And you know the addresses of all of them if they do they're the county So you know pretty obvious and We only included the partial addresses because we wanted to convince them that you know that they really did got get what they asked for So I thought this was pretty cool. It took me nearly 10 minutes to think of it I was describing it to Nadia. Of course it took her. No actually wasn't Nadia is Christine It's what I was describing it to Christine It took her maybe 30 seconds to tell me what the answer was. I mean, you know came came up with the same solution So, you know But of course that wasn't what they wanted to do What they wanted to do was sit beside somebody with a spreadsheet on the screen and point and They would accept the fact that what we emailed to them was what they pointed out on the screen so That was it Thank you very trivial


Good, stop, clean that grip. 90 degrees, you're going the wrong way, player.  Yeah, start over, single leg. Stuff the head, clean the grip, 90 degrees. That's a funny single leg, though, free. You gotta high leg and pass the leg. That was really good, though. Good single leg, good spin out. So we're gonna pass the leg this time. Single leg, go. Stuff the head, clean the grip. You know what, like you did, 90 degrees. While I'm taking over the hands, it's a nice slap. We're gonna do it right here. Start spinning. Don't look at him. Right there, that's what we want to be. We're gonna work. We're gonna do the slip, we're gonna run around the board, and then stuff the lower stand. Alright? So we're gonna do the high cross, we're gonna swing ankle roll. At the end of the ankle roll, you're gonna slip, or you're gonna start running in the corner of the single leg. If you run in the corner, we'll spin out. If you split, we're gonna park forward. Good! Let's get it, go! Is that dude got a compound shirt on there? Oh, yeah. Oh, where was I? I'm taking over. That's actually his, right? Let me see this. Yeah? Yeah, this is getting texture. Yeah, yeah? Even though I'm from Ohio. Okay. You still did it. You gotta roll it. Alright, I'm crunching. If he runs the corner and beats me, round the corner and beat me here, I stuff the head, clean the grip. Okay, I continue to scramble. If he splits me, I got my hands set in the cross.  Alright, they're gonna get head inside. They're gonna try to get strong again. They might beat us. We gotta start wrestling again. Do we got it? Doesn't make you look like that.


The following is a production of New Mexico State University. Getting information out in the early years of New Mexico State University was vastly different than the high-tech approach of today, and sometimes unusual methods were used. The Cooperative Extension Service, now part of the College of Agriculture and Home Economics, introduced the demonstration train in the early 1900s. The train traveled New Mexico statewide, stopping at towns large and small to give lectures and demonstrations on new farm crops, horticulture, and animal husbandry. Some tours lasted eight days, sported a staff of ten instructors who would speak to more than 13,000 people by trip's end. Others carried electric generators so that films could be shown in towns where no electricity existed. Demonstration trains continued throughout the 1920s on the Santa Fe Railroad, with the service finally ending in 1930. For the early years, I'm Carla Aragon. This was a centennial minute from New Mexico State University. The preceding was a production of New Mexico State University.

Hello and welcome to the session. In this session, we will discuss the following question and the question says, tell which of the following relations are functions, part a is y is equal to 2x plus 3, part b is x is equal to y squared plus 4. In part c, we are given two sets in which the element 12 from the first set is mapped to number of planets and number of bananas in one dozen and 31 is mapped to number of days in January. Let's start the solution now. In part a, we are given y is equal to 2x plus 3. We have to find whether this relation is a function or not. We know that a relation is a function if each element of domain has a unique image. Also for this relation, we can see that for each value of x there exists a unique value of y. So, we can say that since each value of x gives only one value of y, therefore y is equal to 2x plus 3 is a function. So, this is our answer for part a. Now in part b, we are given x is equal to y squared plus 4. Now if we take y is equal to 1, then x is equal to 1 squared plus 4 which is equal to 5. Now let y is equal to minus 1, then x is equal to minus 1 squared plus 4 which is again equal to 5. So, for two different values of y, we get the same value of x. So, the ordered pair 5, 1 and the ordered pair 5 minus 1 have same first component and we know that the condition for a relation to be a function is that no two ordered pairs in the relation should have same first component. Therefore, we can say that x is equal to y squared plus 4 is not a function. Now we will move on to part c. Here the first box represents the domain and the second box represents the range. We can see that the element 12 is mapped to two different elements in the range. Hence the element 12 has more than one images. So, we can say that since the element 12 has more than one image, therefore the given relation is not a function. This completes part c and with this we end our session. Hope you enjoyed the session.


Hi everyone, Joe for jaskiescasebreaks.com, coming at you with a pack of 2019-2020 Panini Optic Basketball Sello Pack Edition. This one actually does not sell out FLIR. This is $148, you can see $149 in the background that I X'd out. That's the one that fills up the FLIR, and that's coming up in a separate video next after this. So we're coming live from the National. Thanks everyone for stopping by, for hanging out with us. Big thanks to these folks for filling up this break, and we'll do the break itself first. Now at the end, we'll re-randomize everyone's names to see who ends up with those FLIR spots. Let's randomize names and teams 4 and 2, 6 times, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in final time. 4 and 2, 6 times, 4 the teams, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in final time. The Warriors down to the Magic. Just get the sizing right here. Alright, so here's the first half of the list right here, and the second half of the list right over here. So now, no trade windows, let's just rip this pack, and then we'll get to the randomizing part. Good luck. Right, yeah. Put in my Restless Jack as we open those, so that's the light up too early.

We'll see you for that break a little bit later tonight at jaspyscasebreaks.com.


Hello, in this presentation we will take a look at some multiple choice questions related to the closing process and financial statements. First question. A classified balance sheet A is not often used B groups items into categories of assets liability and equity C presents information in a way that makes it easier to calculate the current ratio D includes more accounts than an unclassified balance sheet and E is not usually provided to external users. Once again, a classified balance sheet is we're going to go through these and check them off or cross them out as we go and see if we can narrow this down A is not often used. So a classified balance sheet now the classified balance sheet is going to be is going to be the one that we typically will use it's going to basically break down the balance sheet into those normal type of classes we have the current assets and long-term assets the property plant equipment the current liabilities in the long-term liabilities rather than just having just everything in terms of assets liabilities and equity we're going to have the subgroups in other words for a classified balance sheet. So it's going to be the norm so I'm going to cross that out it's going to be the most often used B groups items into categories of assets liabilities and equity now that you might say that that's kind of true because the balance sheet does have those groups assets liabilities and equity so that looks kind of good but there are some subgroups too so I'm just going to leave that one for now C says presents information in a way that makes it easier to calculate the current ratio I'm going to go ahead and leave that for now D then says includes more accounts than an unclassified balance sheet and this one's a little tricky actually because it does have more account categories but not more accounts so this one this one can be a little tricky and you got to be on the terminology because we're going to have the same number of counts mean we're going to have an asset section while we'll have cash while the counts receivable will have a you know property plant any equipment or not property plan that will have equipment we'll have buildings and whatnot but the subcategories will differ if it was just like a an unclassified balance sheet they would all just be listed under assets all the accounts and if they're classified they would be listed and grouped into the category so there's the same number of accounts just grouped in different formats so this one's actually not it I'm going to cross that out and then e is not usually provided to external users that's not true because mainly when we think of the financial statements we think of external users and once again the classified balance sheet is the one most often used note that a here and e are really similar so when we when we work these multiple choice questions a says is not often used and e says is not provided to external users that's pretty much the same thing because we provide these financial statements for the external users that's who we prepare them for so because those are the same week if we didn't really know we can cross those two out probably by saying hey it can't be both of those those are pretty much the same thing let's say it must not be either of those so we're left with B and C so once again the question a classified balance sheet a groups items into categories of assets liabilities and equity that's B and C says presents information in a way that makes it easier to calculate the current ratio now the current ratio is calculated as current assets over current liabilities and so we have to kind of know that that's one of our most common type of ratios and note that that's breaking this out into more groups into current assets and current liabilities so if we did not have a classified balance sheet which already does that breakout it would be more difficult for us to to you know figure out what the current assets and current liabilities are so C is actually the correct answer here the reason B is not correct is because although the classified balance sheet does group in accordance with assets liability and equity the main groups it does have also the subgroups so C is more correct because it's saying it's referring to the fact that it has these subgroups so the answer once again a classified balance sheet C presents information in a way that makes it easier to calculate the current ratio next question the closing process is necessary to a calculate net income B close all permanent accounts C close out net income and owner draw for the period to the owner capital account D comply with regulations once again the closing process is necessary to a calculate net income the closing process isn't really used to calculate net income because remember where we are at or after we've already prepared the adjusted trial balance we've prepared the financial statements we've made balance sheet income statement statement of equity income statement calculating net income the process after that is the closing process clearing out zeroing out net income making net income now zero in essence by closing out revenue and expense accounts to prepare for the next time period so it's not going to be that B says all close all permanent accounts now that is you might think that that might be right because one of the two it's going to close not the permanent however but the temporary accounts so this is kind of backwards we're not going to close the permanent we're going to close the temporary and then C says close out net income or owner draw for the period to the owner's capital account that sounds pretty good I'm going to keep that for now and D says comply with regulations now you might say hey you know that's generally accepted accounting principles to do this and so in a sense there may be regulations that that we're complying with in order to prepare the closing process but C might be more more specific so if we look at C close out net income and owner draws for the period to the owner's capital account that sounds pretty specific and oftentimes if you see kind of a some shorter type of responses and then a long detailed response that seems very specific to something you want to take a look at that that detailed response maybe that's maybe there's a reason it's describing the whole process here and so this is basically it sees is what is happening we're closing out what is the closing process it closes out net income revenue and expense accounts and then it closes out draws those being all the temporary accounts for a sole provider and it closes them out to the owner capital account so D we're going to say that's not the most you know defined answer C looks like the best answer here once again that being the closing process is necessary to see close out net income and owner draw for the period to the owner's capital account next question the final step in the accounting cycle is a posting transactions be the adjusted trial balance C financial statements D the post closing trial balance and E preparing a worksheet once again the final step to the accounting cycle is posting transactions that generally happens during the month so we were gonna basically record the transactions and post them to the general ledger so that's kind of like the first thing that as part of that's towards the beginning so I'm gonna cross that out the adjusted trial balance that's getting towards in remember we have the normal journal entries and then we have the adjusting entries that are gonna have what we make the unadjusted trial balance and then we enter the adjusting entries to get to the adjusted trial balance but it's not quite there yet because we are ultimate goal is really to make the financial statements so they just the trial balance then will be used to create the financial statements so I'm gonna cross that out C says financial statements and I just said that that's basically our ultimate goal so I'm gonna keep that but I'm gonna keep going through them because there's kind of a this might not be it and then D says the post closing trial balance now the post closing trial balance says closing in it and when we're talking about the final step to the accounting cycle it might have something that says closing in it if it's a legitimate name so I'm gonna keep that one and then he says preparing a worksheet now the worksheet is part of the process but obviously we have to fill in the worksheet so I wouldn't say that just preparing a worksheet it's gonna it's gonna be that the end test we're gonna have to to fill it out so I'm gonna cross that one out and we're left with C and D so once again the question the final step in the accounting cycle is financial statements or the post closing trial balance now it notes that when we're looking at this work we're considering the name of these multiple choice questions with the kind of like the section we're on is the closing section so note that the answer just given that and just be mindful of this when you're looking at multiple choice questions the answer is probably gonna relate more to the to the closing process although we are talking about financial statements as well so but some multiple question multiple choice questions can be answered in that format just by knowing what topic are we on that's probably gonna be one of the related things that will be there so it actually is the post closing trial balance and I know I said that the financial statements are the kind of end goal and they are really kind of the end goal but but then there's like the after that the end goal of cleaning up the shop kind of thing so it's kind of like if you if you have a concert or something the actual concert is the main event that's the end goal to generate revenue by performing the concert and then after the concert is over you got to clean everything up the cleaning everything up is really the end thing in the cycle but it's really there to prepare for the next cycle and the main event is kind of the concert and here the main event is the financial statements but it's not really the answer because we have to then clean up after the financial statement and that's gonna be the post closing trial balance that we'll do that that's the final thing we will have after the closing entries will be left with a post closing trial balance having just temporary accounts of zeros which will then be ready for us to move forward in the next time period so once again final answer the final step the final step to the accounting cycle is D the post closing trial balance


Frank, you are going to be taking it away. All right. Thank you, Rachel. Thank you. This is going to be an essay or an article that was written by S. Brian Wilson about our involvement in Korea. And Brian is probably one of the biggest experts in this country, his knowledge of Korea, what we've done in Korea, as strong as anyone. He's been there seven or eight times. But just for any of those who are watching who don't know who Brian is, Brian was raised in upstate New York. And when he went into the Air Force as an officer, he was at that time a conservative Republican, anti-Castoral. He was an anti-communist. He was a valedictorian of his class. And he was an all-eagg athlete. He was the all-American young man. And when he went to Vietnam, he as an officer, he was involved. He was ahead of 40 men in his group. And one of the first assignments he had, he was sent out to a village, sent out to inspect a result of a bombing that the United States had done. It was a South Vietnamese lieutenant trained in the United States. And Brian didn't even know what he was going to check on. And he got out there. And what he discovered was it was a fishing village. And the Espen napalm bombed an napalm. And he explained, is there about 100 people there? And they were all dead, are dying. And there were no soldiers. And there were no weapons, women and children, some old men. And he had his epiphany that day. And in the next week or so, he went to four other villages and saw the same thing. And then Brian started speaking out against what we were doing there. And they sent him back to the United States. And he ended up getting out of the Air Force. And he became an activist. And when I first heard about Brian, it was 1986. He was involved in a veteran's fast for life. And they were fasting, four veterans fasting in front of the Capitol building against US policy in Central America. And actually, that was learning about Nicaragua at the time. And he was very involved. And then one of them almost died 40 days. And a year later, Brian was doing another action on Concord. They were blocking naval trains. They were carrying weapons to put on ships to go to Central America to use the killings of people down there. And I'll never forget, I heard Blaze Bomb Pain and on KBFK announced one day that Brian had been run over by this train and it cut off his legs. And a year later, he came to Los Angeles. And I want to hear him speak. And it changed my life. I've never heard anybody speak like Brian, especially that first time I heard him. And then I made friends with him later on. And he's in my film. He's lasting up to my film. And we made the film about him called Pain to Price for Peace. The story of S. Brian Wilson, directed by Boba Dhar. And I was a associate producer in that film. It's a great film. It's available out there, 2016. And his book, Blood on the Tracks, the lifetime of S. Brian Wilson, another great book. And if you don't want to buy anything or all that, go to his website, www.brianwilson.com. Everything he's written on there is worth reading. So he's also, like I said before, been to Korea numerous times. And so Brian wasn't able to be with us tonight. But we're going to have what he's submitted read by Emily Dorrell, my daughter. And that's it. Emily's going to take it away. Thanks, Debbie. The US decision to artificially divide an ancient homogeneous Korea upon the surrender of the Japanese, the subsequent US directed reign of terror that led directly to the war of national independence against Western imperialist intervention, and then consequently the hot war to be followed by extensive periods of military dictatorships until 1997, supported by the US government, surely must rank as one of the cruelest tragedies of the 20th century. This is virtually unknown history in the West. And today's issues relating to Korea cannot be understood without knowing this diabolical assault on the Korean soul. Everything we learned about Vietnam has its forerunner in Korea, US support of a corrupt tyrannical ruler, regular atrocities, mass slaughter of civilians, torture, and imprisonment of dissidents not assassinated, cities and many agricultural areas bombed to total destruction, intense and calculated management of the news narratives about the war, and consistent sabotaging of peace talks throughout the war's duration. On August 8th, 1945, exactly three months after the German surrender, Russian troops entered Manchuria as they had earlier promised at the Yalta Conference overwhelming Japanese forces there. On August 12th, they entered Northern Korea, further ousting Japanese forces, thereby assuring no more US casualties. This significant Soviet involvement now made it impossible for the US to exclude the USSR in a post-war Korean settlement. On August 11th, three days after the entrance of the Soviet troops in the Japanese arena, and as it turns out, only four days before the imminent surrender of Japan, President Truman unilaterally ordered his Department of War to hurriedly identify a supposedly temporary line dividing Korea into two zones. The 38th parallel was chosen, a division that placed approximately 21 million rural people, 65% of the country's population, and historic capital city of Seoul in the US zone. 9 million people and the more industrial sectors with 55% of the land base were to be in the Soviet zone. Of course, the Koreans were not consulted. The US understood that if it was to assert Western style, capitalist control in Korea, it had to defeat then eliminate the broad-based popular Democratic KPR, Korean People's Republic, that immediately organized themselves after the Japanese surrender on the entire peninsula north and south. Instead of repatriating the defeated Japanese forces as mandated, the US military government manned by nearly 2,000 US officers, most of whom were unable to speak or understand the Korean language, quickly recruited them and their Korean collaborators to continue administrative functions. More important and egregiously, the US military government revived the feared Japanese colonial police force, the Korean national police. About 85% of the Koreans who had served in the Japanese colonial police force were quickly employed by the US to man the KNP. Other collaborators were recruited into the Korean constabulary created in December, 1945 by the commander of the US forces in Korea. Secret protocols later revealed gave the US operational control of the Southern Korean police and all of its armed forces from August 15th, 1945 to June 30th, 1949. Systemic planned repression began almost immediately despite the fact that US government knew full well of Korean desires in 1945 for independence. The US possessed a thorough study entitled Joint Army Navy Intelligence Study of Korea which described the strong desires of the Koreans for their independence and that they preferred a cumbersome autonomous transition to the danger and dread of continued control by some successor to Japan. The study described the extent of the 40-year Japanese rule and its collusion with an aristocratic Korean minority reiterating that the majority of tenant farmers were terribly oppressed. Nonetheless, the US had no intention to grant the Koreans their historical, legal and cultural rights to independence. And a subsequent US survey of Korean attitudes disclosed that nearly three quarters of the population clearly wanted a socialist rather than a capitalist system. Furthermore, early reports revealed that their socialist leanings were quite independent of any directives from the Soviet Union and were cooperative but not under the thumb of Northern Korea communists. The US hurriedly organized wealthy conservative Koreans representing the traditional land-owning elite and on September 16th, 1945 convened the Korean Democratic Party. US intelligence had quickly identified several hundred conservatives among the older and more educated Koreans who had served the Japanese who could serve as the nucleus for the rapidly convened KDP. These were the Koreans who had grown wealthy as a result of years of collaboration with their Japanese colonizers. Nonetheless, both US Secretary of State Dean Atchison and George Kennan, Asian specialist for the US State Department, made it clear by 1949 that the ability of the democratically elected Singh Menri to suppress the internal threats to his regime was very important for the success of US containment of communism policy. The guerillas had to be quickly eliminated so that the world could clearly witness Korea's successful landing of the communist threat, handling of the communist threat. The stakes were high in Korea for the US and the West in general in the new Cold War. The US wanted to make sure that their puppet, Ri, would prevail at any cost. Ri was a US educated Christian in a primarily Buddhist and Confucianist society who had been flown to Korea on General Douglas MacArthur's personal plane on October 16th, 1945. The US cared not one bit about the aspirations of the Korean people for a reunified country. Thus, the US exercised a large role in suppressing any and all resistance to the Ri regime, advisors with all Korean army and police units, use of spotter planes to ferret out guerillas, daily briefings of counterinsurgency units, interrogation and torture of prisoners, regular intelligence briefings, use of transport planes carrying armed troops and supplies and even the occasional use of US combat forces. The US Re forces carried out a ruthless campaign of cleansing the south of dissidents, identifying as a suspected communist, anyone who opposed the Ri regime, whether openly or quietly. In fact, most participants or believers in the popular movement in the south were socialists and unaffiliated with outside communist organizations. As the repression intensified, however, alliances with popular movements in the north, including communist organizations increased. The Jeju Island insurgency in the south was crushed by August 1949, but on the mainland, Korea warfare continued in most provinces until 1950 to 1951. In the eyes of the commander of the US military forces in Korea and President Seung Min-Ri, virtually any Korean, not a publicly professed rightist, was considered a communist trader. Therefore, massive numbers of farmers, villages and urban residents who were systematically rounded up in rural areas, villages and cities from throughout South Korea. Captives were regularly tortured to extract names of others. Thousands were imprisoned and even more thousands forced to dig mass graves before being ordered into them and shot by fellow Koreans, under which the watch of US officers. Estimates of civilians murdered under the pretext of killing communists during the era of legal US occupation and the succeeding extended period until June 30th, 1949 are in the 500,000 range, with the lowest figure being 100,000, the highest being 800,000. By mid-1949, there were 30,000 alleged communists in Ries Jails and it estimated 70,000 in so-called guidance camps used as overflow prisons. By December, 1949, as many as 1,000 people a day were being rounded up, tortured and imprisoned. Meanwhile, numerous others were being murdered after torture, not even having the privilege of being thrown in prison. US and Korean agents had penetrated every organization, every student group, every cafe, every workplace seeking any evidence of publicly expressed dissent and contempt for the re-regime. US officials, including at the US embassy, knew and were complicit in the reign of terror that preceded the open hot war that began on June 25th, 1950. Thank you very much, Emily, for reading and thank you, Brian, for writing that beautiful piece. Such important testimony that will be put into the record. And...


Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Larry Ellison. Can we turn that up, that moniker? Thank you for joining us here this lovely Wednesday afternoon in San Francisco. All right, six years of engineering. You know, my first version of that slide was four years of engineering. Then I changed it, so it took a little longer than we had planned. But it was a huge, huge engineering project to build a complete and integrated suite. ERP, human capital management, CRM, all the different pieces built on top of modern technology, rebuilt on top of modern technology. Complete, integrated, and...


الحديث الثاني عشر the 12 حديث عن أبي أيوب الأنصاري رضي الله تعالى عنه قال قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم إذا أتيتم الغائطة فلا تستقبل القبلة بغائط ولا بول ولا تستدبروها ولكن شرق أو غرب قال أبو أيوب فقديمنا الشامع فوجدنا مراحظة قد بنيت نحو الكعبتي فننحرف عنها ونستغفر الله عز وجل This حديث is collected by the narrated بألمام البخاري رحمه الله إن كتاب الوضوء عن إن كتاب الصلاة مسلم narrated in كتاب الطهارة So بخاري narrated in two places and مسلم narrated in one place The wording is the wording of ايمام المسلم The wording of this حديث is the wording of ايمام مسلم رحمه الله The صحابي that narrated this حديث His name is أبو أيوب أبو أيوب His name This is this, this is Korea His name is خالد ابر زيج ابر كوليب ابر صعلبة الألصاري، الخزرجي، النجاري هو جميل، اشتهر بكنياته هو جميل بكنياته شهيدا بدره هو باتل بدر والمشاهد كلها وكل أخر باتل هو باتل ومن من حذر بيعة العقبة الترثانية هو باتل والأخر بيعة العقبة مع المسجا صلى الله عليه وسلم ونزل رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم عليه حين قدمة المدينة ومن المفتاح أنه إلى المدينة المفتاح بانساري في المنزل أبو أيوب الأنصاري هو باتل هو باتل هو باتل شهيدا باتل رضي الله انه حروب كلها باتل و~" وقد تتلح أيها المشقة ولكم فرر ولم يزل و wasn't any further هل ذلك يخل العمل هو في مطلقته مضي جب Penguin خلق باتل إلى حتى، guitar台 ف لا في عمل يزويز ينو بعالية لyards شوارت وخلاف معاوية و كانت فعلت على قسطانطينية و كانت هذه هي الجهة الثلاثة هذا الحديث يتحدث عن استقبال القبلة في قبلها و استدبارها و تبقى في قبلها و تقوم بعمل قبلها أبو أيوب الأنصاري إذا أتيتم الغائطة فلا تستقبل القبلة لا تبقى قبلها لا تبقى قبلها يعني ماذا يعني لا تبقى قبلها إلا تولو وجهكم لا تبقى قبلها و تبقى قبلها تبقى قبلها ولا تستدبروها و also don't turn your back on the qiblah and don't turn your back on the qiblah meaning your back your bottom will all face the qiblah بغائطن while doing your number one and sorry number two and bowl your number one ولا تستدبروها and don't face towards it so what do we do ولكن شرق أو غربو turn to east or west شرق means east أو غربو means west turn to east or the west أبو أيوب الأنصاري أبو أيوب الأنصاري فقدمنا الشام we came to Sham we came to Sham سبسفاكري ديمشقا where he resided he said فوجدنا مراحيضة قدبونية نحو الكعباتي and we found that the toilets were built facing towards the الكعبات فننحري عنها so what do we do we turn away from it whilst we're sitting on it and turn away from it either towards the east or the west وَنَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ عَزَوَ جَلَّا and we ask Allah for forgiveness وَنَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ and we ask Allah for what for forgiveness the overall meaning in this Hadith is so the meaning that we have to take first of all is turn towards the east or the west that is referring to who the Prophet of Medina the Prophet of Medina so when he said turn towards the east or the west he's referring to the people in Medina if you're in another place in the world and the Ka'bah is at your east or your west you can't say the Prophet said turn towards the east or the west but rather you face towards any other direction other than the Ka'bah where you can't turn towards it no away from it this addressing was to the people of Medina and those who were next to it or who also take the same ruling as them such as the people of Sham and the people of Yemen they all take the same they can't face the Qiblah in that direction because the people of Sham and the people of Yemen they are exactly like Saudi Arabia like Medina where they also have to go towards the east and the west but anyone other than that then they don't follow that part of because wherever the direction of the Ka'bah is what you need to look at you need to look at أبو أيوب الأنصار رضي الله عنه he is talking about the prohibition that the Messenger of God put on this Ummah and that is to honor the Ka'bah and that the Ka'bah has a high status in the eyes and the minds of the Muslims and Allah ordered us to face the Qiblah in Salah at a time where impurity not at the time of call of nature you don't face it nor do you face away from it فق الحديث the thick of the Hadith number one ينبغي it is required إحترام القبلة to respect the Qiblah وتعذيم الكعبة and to honor the Ka'bah وتكريمها and to glorify it number two فيه كلاية in this Hadith is metaphorically speaking about المستخدرات the things that are disliked things that are not good without saying the word exactly what it is not referring to it by its name because the Hadith says don't face towards the Qiblah it doesn't say don't you're private but it doesn't talk about that it's a word that no one the person should not use now number three فيه ابتداء in this Hadith is starting العالم وأصحابه بالعلم it is in this Hadith is the scholar has to start with his followers first if he's teaching them a matter if he knows that they are in need of it so the man starts with his wife and his children and he teaches them and he educates them or your students or those who are around you you teach them and you educate them first أنه ينبغي للعالم and then it's required from the scholar التنم التنبيه it is required from the scholar to look at على الوقاع the scholar has to observe situation that oppose knowledge the religion has to observe and to come back from it so the scholar has to observe the things that go against the religion and the شريعة in matters and has to come back from it himself and also ask Allah to repent us and forgiveness 5 فيه بيانون in this Hadith is a clarification that which the messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم was upon in terms of standing up to clarify matters for his Ummah he prohibited them from the things that were prohibited and he mentioned for them that which they were allowed to do so what did he do he said you're not allowed to do this and he gave them an opening عليه صلى الله عليه وسلم 5 6 أهل الوراع والمناسب العلياء the people of knowledge and the people of high status and the people of piety in their heart there is piety when they come with shortness in a matter and they see that in themselves first and they ask Allah for forgiveness and they don't become deceived with themselves because as you've said we ask Allah for forgiveness so the people of that level that noble companions with a high status were asking Allah for forgiveness now


Hi, she was seven. Okay, so I'm going to tell y'all how to use the law of attraction and visualization to attract the type of people you want in your life and to also attract how people treat you, like how you want people to treat you. Okay, so if y'all don't know what the law of attraction is, it's basically whatever you're thinking about, whatever you're focusing on is going to attract to you, whether it's positive or negative, okay? So if you're constantly worried about something, you're gonna attract more things to be worried about, okay? If you're constantly afraid of something, you're gonna attract more things to be afraid of. But if you're constantly thinking about what you do want and focusing on positive things and things that you like and want to come into your life, then you're gonna attract that as well, okay? And instead of focusing on what you don't want, you need to focus on what you do want. So we need to stop focusing on these type of men that we don't want in our lives. We need to stop acknowledging them. We need to stop talking to them. We need to stop complaining about them. And we need to just focus on the type of men you do want, okay? So right now we're not going to even acknowledge those guys who aren't about anything, who don't know how to treat women. We're gonna focus on the men who do, okay? So the type of men that you're gonna want is a good man who is financially stable, would make a good father if you want children, knows how to treat you, has manners, someone you can bring home to meet your parents, mom, dad, and someone who is respected, you know? Someone who you can brag about to your friends and someone you can be proud to be married to, you know? Someone who is marriage-minded. Someone who values and understands the true worth of having a wife or a long-term relationship. So this is who we wanna focus on now. The guys who have their stuff together. So I just wanna say, guys who have your stuff together or who are getting your things together are your life in order. Thank you for being who you are and striving to be, you know, the type of men most women, you know, want. Thank you for being almost like a lottery ticket when a woman meets you because you are what others strive to be, you know? So thank y'all, thank y'all, good guys. Okay, so track one of these good guys or if, you know, for guys to track one of these good ladies who have their stuff together and not crazy and mentally messed up from past relationships and who know how to let stuff go and move forward in life and not be emotionally paranoid about everything. It's on the type of women we do want. Smart, understanding, kind, nurturing, knows what they want, not afraid to speak their mind. Okay, upfront, unhonest.  So yeah, there's an ambulance at your buy. Oops. So you're going to want to, like if you have a lunch break or something, you want to take that time to visualize the type of relationship you do want to be in, the type of guy or girl you want to be with, you know, just visualize the future. Like, oh, that's who I'm going to marry, someone just like that.   And also, don't talk about people that you don't want. Talk about only the guys or the women that you do want to attract. Don't talk bad about the guys anymore, you know. We've been there and done that. We understand the type of man we don't want.  People aren't going to see you as angry and bitter and mad at the world and mad at guys in general. They're going to say, oh, she's looking for a good man. She's looking for a good man, not just any man, but a good man and she is a good woman because she is talking good about men. So automatically this is going to start attracting good people in your life, good men, good women who know good men, who can introduce you. Okay? Because we all know some, most women aren't all about the money. They just want a decent good man, you know, a good decent medium life and that's fine. You know? So that's what you need to keep in your mind and don't worry about these other guys. Don't worry about the past guys. Don't worry about the guys trying to approach you that you're going to shoot down within two seconds because that's not what you want.  And when you're talking about these type of men, you know, say what you like about them. You know, talk about them to your friends, talk about them to your mom and dad. It's like, mom, I want to marry a man who's got all his financial priorities in the right order. I want a good father for my children when we have kids or stepfather, if I already have kids or whatever. Just talk about what you want, not what you don't want. Okay? Keep talking about it. Talk, talk, talk because you never know who's listening who might know someone who might introduce you or you never know what man is listening. Like, oh my gosh, you know, that's me. That sounds like me, you know? Talk up guys with good qualities, that is. And don't even waste your time dogging out guys anymore. Don't even waste your time talking bad about them anymore. Because obviously it doesn't work. They don't care. They're not going to change. I'm sure many women have tried to change them, including their mothers, but they probably couldn't. So they just like chalked it up to lost cause, which we should do as well. We should just move on to the men who are worth our time. Okay? Because while we're spending time bashing these guys, we could be praising the good ones, you know? So let's do that. I know plenty of good guys out there, you know, who know how to handle their business and have a good relationship and be a good father. I see them every day, you know? Sometimes I see them like outside playing with their kids, bringing their wife's flowers home. You know, I see that every day in my neighborhood. You know, people celebrating anniversaries at restaurants. Look at those couples. Try to look at couples that you want to, you know, one day be like, don't look at couples who you know have problem.  Because we can't focus on the bad anymore. It's just not gonna work. So, you know, go to places where you're gonna see families.  Go to places and, you know, just watch and see how they are towards each other. Observe, see what type of guy they are, you know? So when you're out and about, you'll recognize it in the man that you meet. You'll say, oh my God, he has qualities just like, you know, that guy I saw who was married to that lady with all them kids and they were so happy. He reminds me of that person. So you automatically know that he has good qualities, you know? So, yeah, I'm stepping away from the negativity for a while, only because it's not gonna really help you.  You already know what type of men don't wanna pay for your meal. You already know what type of men only want sex from you. You already know who that is, okay? Now let's focus on who the type of men who are gonna marry you are, okay? And they are out there, believe me.  Da, da, da, da, da, da. Yeah, yes, there is.  Did they forget about that? People are born every day and people die every day. People date out of their age range. People date younger, people date older.  People, you know, divorce. So they didn't factor in all of that kind of good stuff. So don't worry about that. I mean, think about it. The only people who are really gonna be single are those people that nobody really wants because something is actually just wrong with them, you know? And if nothing is absolutely wrong with you then you shouldn't have any problem finding a mate, you know?  That's just easy, you know? But is it gonna be the right one? Is it gonna be the one that it's gonna help you, you know, have a good life, have a better life? Is it gonna be a good father and this, this and that?  Focus on men who are good examples, who you wouldn't mind, you know, raising a family with. Based on those guys, you know, let's celebrate the goodness. Let's celebrate the good guys because they're very untalked about. They're very unacknowledged sometimes.  So I know there's a lot of guys who believe in the same thing as I do. And they will say, you know, you're right. Man doesn't need to take care of his family and he doesn't need to get married until he can do so. My man's job is to provide and protect for his family and his wife. And that's just how a lot of men still think. And those are the type of men who, you know, get left out. And so I'm just going to tell y'all, thank you for thinking like that. Thank you for holding on to those same values. And thank you for understanding and knowing a woman's worth, a wife's worth. Okay, so if y'all are seeing, if there's anybody, any of those guys out there who are single, who believe in that, you know, I'm sure there's a lot of single ladies watching this. So maybe y'all can put some in the comments and start a conversation. I don't know. I'm so thirsty today, y'all. Anyway, and you know, just walk around thinking about what you want instead of, you know, a lot of men complain about women walking around with attitudes and don't want to talk to you. And like, yeah, well, those women who don't want to talk to you, they don't know if you're a nice guy or a good guy. That's why they act like that because they're used to encountering negative situations.  Don't say nothing to her. Just smile and make eye contact. Let her know you appreciate what you're looking at. Don't make any, just like, you know, smile. Like don't make her feel uncomfortable with your smile. Like you're looking at her booty or whatever. Just smile like a respectful smile. And if they feel comfortable, they will actually give you a sign to come and talk to them. They will be like, they might look your way or they might look back and they might say, you know, walk a little slower or distract themselves or fake drop their phone so you can come and approach them. Okay, and women give off signals like that.  Let me get up out of here. You know, but if you just smile, a respectable smile and, you know, you look good, she looks good. You're attracted, she's attracted.  Okay, so that's the signal. I know that's what I used to do when I was single. Like if I saw a guy I liked and he didn't like hoop and holler at me, I was even more interested. I was like, oh my God, he's cute and he didn't even hoop and holler, but he did smile. So guess what? I'm gonna drop my purse or my phone or my lipstick or I'm gonna backtrack and go this way and I'm gonna make sure he sees me looking at him and then eventually, yes, they do come over, you know? So guys, remember that. You see a lady looking back at you and they drops something and they're fidgeting around and slowing down and that means they want you to approach them unless they're just really clumsy. But yeah, that's usually the sign, come on. Okay, so I'm gonna end this video and I hope that y'all take what I said into consideration and start focusing on the men you do want and ignore these other guys.  We already know those aren't the ones that we're looking for. So, well, I already got mine, but y'all, I try to put myself in y'all's shoes. I will say, thank you good guys, thank you good men and I'll see y'all later, bye.


Working together to connect. New digital technologies are emerging at a staggering rate. Cloud computing, blockchain, artificial intelligence, mobile, and OTTs are innovative breakthroughs on their own. Combined, however, their potential increases exponentially, creating even more opportunity and innovation, but also disruption. New digital technologies challenge businesses to innovate. As industries adapt to create better products and improve customer experiences, digital technologies can improve our lives with more services and more choice and help us find solutions to both economic and environmental challenges. For example, cloud-based technology has fueled innovation to improve water security. Mobile communication has fostered mobile apps to aid in disaster recovery. And cloud technologies have enabled scientists to accelerate COVID-19 vaccine research and campaign deployment. Regulators and policymakers need to keep pace and create enabling environments, promoting the use of new technologies and spurring innovation on one hand, while protecting citizens on the other. ITU members have co-created a report on the impact of emerging technologies for developing countries, specifically the impact of mobile services, OTT applications, and cloud computing. The report recommends promoting the adoption of emerging technologies to accelerate socio-economic development. It also recommends supporting the digital economy and the use of emerging technologies by adapting legal and institutional frameworks and implementing strategies to develop and share resources. That means secure, country-wide access to cloud services needs to be ensured. Cooperation between OTTs and telecommunication partners should be supported. Mobile services should be accessible by both feature firms and smartphones. Investment in digital literacy is recommended to encourage the use of mobile services. Financial, health, government and transportation services should be available as mobile services. Adopting collaborative regulation to enable core services such as financial, health and education. And data should be encouraged to flow freely to promote economic growth. In the end, new technologies should be improving our business environments and our lives. Working together to connect.


I make a ton of videos about file managers. It's kind of ridiculous. I have just a little bit of an obsession with Crusader. I know that it's a thing that I'm working on, not really, but I know that as a personality trait, I have a thing for file managers. So what I thought I would do today is make a top five GUI file managers for Linux video because I haven't done that before and honestly, I'm kind of surprised that I haven't. But we're gonna rectify that today. Top five GUI file managers for Linux. Now, before I jump in, I should say that I'm specifically saying GUI. I probably didn't say that in the title. It's YouTube. I gotta do a little bit of clickbait here, but I'm specifically excluding terminal file managers from this list. And that's not because I think that they're bad or unusable or anything like that. I use Ranger all the time. It's just that I'm going to make a future video about the top five terminal file managers and that'll be in the future. So if you're interested in that, make sure you hit the subscribe button. They'll come out in the future. So let's go ahead and jump in to number five on the list. So the fifth best file manager for Linux is Crusader. Now, if you've watched the channel for any amount of time, you'll know that I love Crusader. This is my daily driver. This is the one that I use. And out of all the other ones on the list, this one here has the most features of any of them. It's feature packed. It comes with a ton of dependencies, so much so that it's going to turn a lot of people away, but it does so much. I would go so far as to say that this is the Emacs of file managers. I'm just going to put that out there just for a joke. This thing does just an absolute ton of stuff. It does file synchronization between drives, comparison between drives, comparison between files, so you could do meld in this if you wanted to do something like that. Network attached storage, SSH, everything you can think of, this thing can do.  So all of the tabs and stuff you have open, they come back after a restart. It's fantastic. And the fact that it only has dual pane mode. Like this is the only way it works. Like you get two panes whether you like it or not. I think that's fantastic. So that's Crusader. I could literally spend all day just on this one file manager, but I've put it at number five for a reason because this thing is not for everyone. Like it has a ton of, when I say it has a ton of dependencies, it has a ton of dependencies, like a lot. Like it's a KDE application, so of course it does. So just keep that in mind. And it's so bad that you have to have dependencies to enable things like image preview, things like unpackaging or unzipping things. You have to have different packages for that. You could literally see this thing climbing up into the 40 or 50 dependencies range if you wanna literally feature pack this thing. And that's definitely not for everyone. Not everyone needs all of these features. So that's the reason why it's number five and not number one. Because if this thing could be for everybody it would be number one. Number four on the list is an oldie buddy goodie. This thing here is called Nautilus. And if you're used GNOME, you probably know this by a different name called files. And it's actually pretty good. I will say that out of all the ones on this list this is my least favorite. But I put it on here because it is still a very good very functional file manager. If all you need is a simple file manager Nautilus is probably one of your best options because it does everything you want it to do without a ton of frills. Like if you go into the preferences there's not a lot here. There's just a few things like you can control whether or not you want to double click or single click. You can do a few content menu actions but there's not a ton of stuff here and that's okay. Not everyone needs all the options that Crusader has. The downside to this is that it is a GNOME application. So if you aren't using GNOME or you're using Plasma or something like that this is probably not going to fit in well with your system. It works best on desktop environments that utilize GTK. As you can see I haven't themed any of this so it kind of looks kind of fugly right now but you can, I mean if you've looked on Unix porn for anybody who uses this you can do a lot of stuff in terms of theming it. It's fantastic in that arena and it's very simple which is also very good. So that is Nautilus or files. Number three on the list is Crusader's baby brother and that is Dolphin. Dolphin is the default file manager on Plasma and as you can see my install of it is a little broken. I'm not sure why the icons aren't showing up. That's something I'll have to deal with later. I don't actually use Dolphin so it's not that big of a deal. But if you like the idea of Crusader but you don't want to be confused out of your gourd this one here is a good option for you because it has almost as many features as Crusader does but they're not as in your face. It starts out just out of the box as a plain old file manager and then if you want to you can customize it and extend it as much as you want. So you can add things like Dolphin. It will remember your position which is really nice. It obviously comes with all the search functionality and favorites and stuff like that that is traditional in all file managers and it works really well if you use Plasma. So if you are a Plasma user or a desktop environment that uses QT this is probably going to be your best option simply because this is written in QT and it is easy to theme using Covantum or the KDE theme manager, whatever hell it's called. So that is Dolphin. It's really good if Crusader didn't exist this would be the one that I'd be using. I will say that if you are in a Tiling Window Manager Dolphin doesn't work as well as the rest of these on the list. For whatever reason, as you can see this doesn't really like Tiling Window Managers. I don't know why there's just something about it that they don't mesh all that well. So it works best in a desktop environment not a Window Manager. So moving on to number two. Number two is Thunar. Now Thunar is the default file manager for XFCE and it is fantastic, it's really, really good. It does have some flaws that prevent it from being something that I would enjoy. So for example, it doesn't remember your position when you close the application and you reopen it and it just defaults back to the home directory. Not a big deal for most people but for me it's a big deal. I will say that I don't prefer the places panel on the side, but you can replace that with a tree if you want to. And it's actually really functional for a file manager. It has dual pane, it has a few settings. So if we go up here to edit and show you the preferences it has more settings and preferences than Nautilus does but it doesn't have so many that it is going to confuse you or overwhelm you in any way. So pretty much anything you'd want to do with a file manager is perfectly doable in Thunar. It is also very snappy. So one of the things that's a problem with Nautilus or something that is it can be slow. It's not always slow, but it can be slow. I don't have any of those problems with Thunar. Thunar is fantastic in terms of speediness. It also works well no matter what you're using it in. So if you're using Windows Manager or desktop environment, whatever, it works well. It is a GTK application. So if you are on Plasma, it may not fit in as well as your other QT apps, but Plasma usually does a pretty good job of using GTK stuff. In this case, I haven't seen any problems with it and I don't use a lot of GTK stuff either. So it actually themes fairly well with like LX appearance or whatever. So that is Thunar. It's really good. So moving on to number one. Number one on the list is Nemo. Now Nemo is the default file manager for the Cinnamon desktop. But that doesn't mean that you can't install it at other places. Nemo is a fantastic file manager because it comes with a lot of features that everyone can use without being overwhelming. And it's just a little bit better designed in my opinion than Thunar. I like the design out of the box better than Thunar. Plus there are a few options like you can hide the file menu in Nemo. I don't think you can do that in Thunar. It has dual pane. The only thing it doesn't do is remember your position when it's closed. So that's the reason why I don't use it. But I do like the default pane along the side better than the one in Thunar. You don't have to do a tree in order to get something functional over there. And it does all the traditional stuff a file manager would do. So out of all of them, I think Nemo is like the every man's file manager. It works everywhere. It is fast. It has all the features that you'd want it to have. So if we go into preferences here, you can see that there's quite a few more settings than Thunar even. It does have a plugin system. So if you want to extend it, you can do that. You can customize the toolbar a little bit more than you can in Thunar. It's not as customizable as something like Dolphin or Crusader, but then what is? Other than double commander, there's not a lot of other options out there when it comes to super customizable file managers. This one here is customizable, but not so much that it's going to overwhelm you. So Nemo is number one simply because, like I said, I like the design of it more than Thunar. And it just has always treated me really well. It's like one of those file managers that I have no problem using whatsoever. Like at certain times I've had problems with Thunar not launching for whatever reason. I've also had problems with Thunar where when my external hard drive will spool up, it'll take like multiple minutes to actually load the file browser. I've never had that problem with Nemo. So Nemo has just been always rock solid. And that's really what you want out of a file manager. So those are the top five file managers for Linux, at least in terms of GUI. Now, like I said, I'm going to do a terminal based file manager list listicle video thing in the future. So if you are interested in that, make sure you leave a comment and hit the subscribe button. If you have other GUI file managers that you prefer, you can leave those in the comment section below. I know PCMan FM is very popular amongst my audience. And that's why it was going to be on my list. But again, I couldn't get it to launch, so I don't know what was going on there. If you want to, you can follow me on Twitter, at the Linuxcast, you can follow me on Mastadon or any of my other social media networks. Those links will be in the video description. You can support me on Patreon at patreon.com slash the Linuxcast.

Hello everyone, welcome to the English Writing Requirement Introduction video. This is Man from the ELC. In this video, I'm going to tell you what EWR is and the role of ELC. Then, we'll be going through the whole process of EWR. There will also be a quick Blackboard tour to show you where you can find all the important EWR documents. First, what is EWR? EWR stands for the English Writing Requirement. Students like you who are taking car subjects with EWR will have to write an assignment of at least 2,500 words in English. Understanding how challenging it could be for students, we the ELC stepped in to help. Through working with us, you will develop your writing skills by submitting multiple drafts of the assignment and exploring some extra online resources. Altogether, you will have to write 3 drafts. Draft 1 to be submitted to the ELC, draft 2 to the ELC again, and the final draft to your car subject teacher. For each of the two drafts that you submit to us, there will be an ELC teacher reading your writing and giving you feedback comments in the form of a feedback report. Based on these comments, you're expected to make revisions, so at the end, a Betsa final draft can be written for your subject teacher. Once you submit your second draft, you will also receive a grade from your ELC teacher, which accounts for 10% of your course grade. Your ELC teacher will be there to guide you through the process of writing and help you understand the type of writing required in your assignment by providing specific comments in feedback reports, which we have mentioned, and offering consultations. These are face-to-face meetings where you can meet your ELC teacher and ask questions. Before I talk about the details, let's take a look at the big picture. This flowchart shows the whole process of EWR. First, you are here now, watching this introduction video. Later, there will be an EWR assignment orientation where your subject teacher, together with an ELC liaison person, will tell you more about the assignment and answer any questions you have about EWR. Submit your draft in the week shown on the screen. After the submission due date, you can book a consultation. This consultation is optional, so whether or not you book us, you will receive a feedback report with your ELC teacher's written comments on it. Afterwards, you attend the consultation that you have booked. Then, the same cycle repeats. You submit your draft to, book us for a consultation if you want to, read the draft to feedback report, and attend the consultation. Now, the details. Submit your draft in the week shown on the screen. For specific date and time, please refer to the EWR Blackboard site. Before the deadline, please submit your work to the EWR Blackboard site. This draft should be 700 words long. You have to submit your draft with a cover page and a checklist. Don't worry, I'll show you what they are in a minute. For draft two, you need to write 1500 words. Again, please submit your work with a cover page and a checklist. You will also be asked to complete a reflection form online when you do the submission. This is a simple form that you should fit in to tell us more about your writing experience. Okay, we asked you to submit a cover page and a checklist with your drafts. So what is a checklist? An assignment checklist is a list of items that you're expected to include in your assignment drafts. It is a useful tool developed by your subject teacher and the ELC for your reference. Here is a sample checklist. What you should do is to read it before you'd start writing to get a general idea of what you're expected to write. Use it while writing to ensure you're addressing your assignment requirements. Then, complete and submit it with your draft. This is what feedback reports will look like. On these reports, you will see comments from your ELC teacher on your draft one and draft two respectively. When a feedback report is released, you will get an email from us telling you to go and check it out on the Blackboard site. What you need to do is to download and read it carefully, prepare questions if you're going to a consultation, and of course, plan your revisions accordingly. Each student has two chances to book a consultation. One for the first draft, the other for the second draft. These consultations are optional, first come first served, and 30 minutes long. The booking is done online via our Blackboard site. There can be up to two students attending the same section. However, if you want to come with a friend, both you and your friend will need to book us separately. Please note that the booking or cancellation closes at 6 p.m. the day before the consultation. So if you do not need a consultation anymore, please cancel it online or else your teacher will be waiting for you. If you forget to cancel, you will also be losing your chance for a consultation. And remember, you only have two chances throughout the semester. If you're coming for a consultation, remember to bring your own draft and prepare questions to ask. OK, here comes the most interesting part, how to fail the ELC component. Students will receive zero mark from the ELC if they do any of these. If they fail to submit both drafts to the ELC, they get a zero. If they fail to submit either draft one or two, they get a zero. Also, if a student submits both drafts but the drafts look the same, then he or she will get a zero as well, as there is no evidence of revision. The mark out of ten is given to draft two based on task fulfillment, organization, language, and revision. Revision is measured based on comments given in first draft feedback report. Your ELC teacher will look back at the comments he or she has given you before and see whether you have really improved your draft two according to these comments. Now, here is a list of issues to avoid when submitting drafts to us. Number one, do not submit a MAG file. Make sure your draft is a Word document file. Number two, submit your work to the correct site. There are two blackboard sites that you will use for this course. One will be the normal subject blackboard site. The other one, which you'll look at later, will be the English writing requirement blackboard site, where you submit your drafts one and two. Number three, if you plan to truffle, make sure you submit your work before leaving Hong Kong. Number four, in previous semesters, some students lost their drafts and therefore had to write their final draft from the beginning again. So remember to back up your own drafts. Number five, submit your draft earlier to avoid any last-minute technical problem. Motable submission is allowed before the deadline. We've also come across blank files before, which were treated as non-submissions. Therefore, you should download your submitted file from the site and try to open it to make sure the submission is correct. Next, let me show you where you can find all the EWR documents on our blackboard site. Okay, now we're at the EWR blackboard site. This is the site that you will use to submit your drafts to the ELC. This is also where you can find important information about your EWR assignment. Today, I'm going to show you a few useful tabs. First, if you click into important dates, you will see a weekly schedule of the whole EWR process, telling you when the drafts will be due and which weeks the consultations will take place. Subject information is where you can look at subject-related documents, including the course outline. Next, you'll see Writing Assignment, the most important tab I would say. Click into it and you'll see everything about the assignment. On top, you'll find the assignment guidelines that we developed together with your subject teacher. The guidelines show what you need to know about the assignment, for example the deadlines, the word requirements for each draft, the organizational and referencing requirements, etc. So this will be a document that you should refer to when you write your drafts. Also at the Writing Assignment are the checklists. When you open this, you will see a cover page and a checklist. When you submit your first draft, you will make use of this cover page, complete the checklist, and write your 700 words here. Then submit the whole file to us as a word document. There's a checklist for the first draft and another one for the second draft. Beneath Writing Assignment, you'll see English Writing Workshops and Writing Labs. Writing Workshops are delivered by the EWR team. They aim at helping you to understand your assignment and plan your drafts. If you're interested in joining these workshops, you can refer to the details on the posters. Writing Labs are one-hour sections during which you can talk to a writing teacher. Different from the EWR consultations, no booking is required. You can check the availability of these labs here on the calendar. If you want to attend a section, just bring your drafts, prepare your questions, and go to the venue on time. The last tab I'll talk about is the EW consultation registration tab. Click into it and you'll be led to the booking site where you book a consultation. If this is the first time you book us, please register for an account. Okay, that's it for today.  An ELC liaison person will be there to answer any questions you have, so remember to attend that lecture. You're also welcome to contact us anytime. Just click Contact Us Here, and then EWR Team, find a liaison person responsible for your subject, and contact him or her via email. Thank you for watching. We hope you have an enjoyable writing experience with us.


qualitatively not the same it's not so good so it's always better to have first and not self-consistent regulation and then and not self-consistent one it says it better to use Ibrav let me see but I don't understand why it's okay every time you run okay every time around the code it says it's better to use Ibrav yes it's true and because when you use when you specify an Ibrav vector then what happens is that the lattice is generated by quantum espresso itself so all the symmetry analysis is made easier and it's a little bit it's more protected it's safer when instead when you use Ibrav equal zero what happens is that you have to specify the lattice vectors and then it all depends on how many digits you are using in specifying the lattice vectors it depends on how this if the orientation of these lattice vectors is compatible with the symmetry analysis of Pw it should be but as orientations are infinite we never we actually never know exactly what may happen and especially when you run first calculation with Pw and then you want to use this information to run a phone calculation it's much more safer if you specify the Ibrav if you have an Ibrav that is correctly done I mean sometimes one needs to specify instead the lattice vectors then you can also use those ones and just take the warning and if you know what you are doing it's also okay not to use Ibrav then so the structure was not already optimized okay this one has already answered yes how should we decide if to describe the structure using Ibrav equal zero or specifying the Ibrav okay now in the case of graphene as I showed you there is no need to do in the relaxation calculation the relaxed calculation because by symmetry the forces are zero what you may need to do is to compute the to check that the lattice constant is the one that minimizes the the structure but okay this is this was this was not the scope of the exercise in this case the exercise we just took a value of the lattice constant it is close to the experimental one and with this one we just wanted to show you how to compute the density of states and the bands yes in principle obviously you may want to to use an optimized lattice constant even if in many cases as in many cases when when when you are computing quantities that depend on the on the lattice constant in many cases if the DFT doesn't give you a very accurate value of the lattice the lattice constant it may it may also be useful to use directly the experimental lattice constant also in this case is something that depends from case to case and one is to if he if he knows what he's doing he can decide by himself then okay as I was saying why okay here there is another question in pwc of that out we found 0.9202 for the for the density of states and instead when we do graph in those five we find 0.9207 okay the difference is not that large in this case but as I was saying we were using two different techniques to compute the density to compute the density of states and two different key point mesh the most accurate is the key point mesh the most accurate is the value of the of the of the of the Fermi level and so yes there is some slight change and so the most accurate you are the better it is even if in this case I mean the difference is very small 0.9202 and 0.9207 practically the same okay so there are other questions in the Slack channel that I still haven't opened and yes you can do a spin component project and then start a plot I will I will show some we will show something like this in the day of magnetism actually so which okay it will be a day seven so you have just to wait I mean if you are very curious you can also go to directly to the exercises in day seven and see how it's done there and otherwise just wait for the tutorial that day and what else sorry the Slack is taking something to open take a long time to understand okay day one okay you don't there are a lot of questions in this okay sorry I shouldn't have actually yes it's really a lot of questions but you don't need to do the Slack answer from here I mean okay okay okay we'll answer we try to answer the question afterwards yeah we do it just start doing the exercise because I've run very late and I was a little bit too long about what I mean yesterday I tried the presentation it was much much faster and instead it was a kind of complete confusion sorry so I think that we can start doing the calculation I will try to answer the questions in Slack now and I think it's I can stop sharing the screen now and yes okay I think it's everything for now yeah if somebody lost most of the steps or some like direct trouble they can join the breakout room with the with the tutors like one-to-one help yeah we'll start answering the question on the Slack now and yeah if there are no yeah we can close the session okay no no no the session we can close the streaming session we can remain available here for the people in Zoom


When I first started doing this work we were doing community engagement and we did that in a lot of different ways. I talked to people in the community and what I heard a lot of was there's not enough for youth to do and there's not enough places to be physically active. So we formed a resident council and out of that resident council came the idea that we really needed a recreation center in Walsenburg. We've been to so many schools where the kitchen staff is kind of an afterthought and the school meal program is just, it's an afterthought and when you have that type of environment it's very hard to create a sustainable change. Our food desert here surrounding the hospital is a food desert because it's literally so many miles to a grocery store and there's no public transit and so we're also a food swamp because we have three convenience stores in the zip code and we have an entire population of elderly and disabled and unhealthy people eating completely out of three corner stores. We look also at the residents living in these neighborhoods over decades. You know they have the higher statistics of poor health. They have no resources that they can access close so travel is an issue. If people do not have their own transportation and you're not near a bus line or you know public transportation then that creates another barrier. We've got to protect our land and our water first and foremost because if we don't have land and water we cannot produce the vegetables for our future generations because I have three kids and you know if they want the opportunity I want them to be able to return home to the farm. This used to be a place that was not alive it was not colorful people chose not to come here and then on this one beautiful September day around four years ago 300 people showed up in this park and what happened we built a new park but we started building a new community people started meeting their neighbors they started knowing each other in ways that they had never known each other before and they realized something that they all share a lot of the hopes same hopes and desires for their community and they also realized that when we come together we can do some pretty amazing things. Fortunately I was invited to a couple of Live Well Colorado activities and when they found out I was applying for SNAP they explained to me what Double Up Bucks was all about and the benefits of it so I was very excited to have two ways that people could come to the farm stand and use their SNAP cards and then double their vegetable purchase. Currently I'm working a pilot to bring produce like you see here in corner stores that have not had items like that for decades. When these stores existed at their origins there were the outlet in the neighborhood that people could walk to. So for Idaily a school district they are a rural school district they're rather small we have about 220 kids total in this school but a lot that they do can be applied even to larger school districts and it really comes down to the support and the investment that the community and the school has in their students and understanding and recognizing the importance that healthy food really plays when it comes to how these students are able to learn and participate in school as a whole. I live here in the city of Swansea and I use the Double Up Bucks program. It's very important because if we support the farmers who have more work and for us to consume fruits and local vegetables because they're more organic they don't have as many chemicals so it's very important to support our farmers. Anybody who does mission projects very rarely does it in a vacuum nobody does this alone. We collectively can have more impact than we individually. So Catholic entities are not strangers to reaching out to partners to help them get all of the pieces put together so that we can maximize the impact and effectiveness for the people we serve. And so it's been great obviously to have Snap Abort and Live Well Abort. We're not in it for the almighty dollar, we're in it because it's the satisfaction of providing for our family, our friends and our community. We are talking about people and we are talking about hope and when you talk about people and when you talk about hope amazing things start happening and a movement which is exactly what's happening right here in the Mara, Colorado because Live Well Colorado chose to invest in our community. We have a movement of change. We have a movement of change that is all about.


Wildfires spread in the western Canadian province of British Columbia on June 9, as the West Cascatino River blaze threatened the evacuated community of Tumblr Ridge. Canada is enduring its worst start to the wildfire season, with 2,392 fires so far this year and 4.4 million hectares burned, according to the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre, roughly 15 times the annual average over the last decade. The British Columbia Wildfire Service released aerial footage of the West Cascatino River wildfire in the provinces northeast, now estimated at a staggering 230 square kilometres. It said winds were expected to shift east and away from the Tumblr Ridge on Saturday, which could help firefighters' efforts to save the community after the fire came within a few kilometres of the town, local media reported.
