Right. Welcome back. Sorry, Kennedy. I didn't see your question now because the reason is I project the notes so I don't get a beep or I'm not able to check the messages. So, all right, so here's a question from Kennedy. Do these cell groups meet in their leader's house or is it rotational among its members? What are the challenges in terms of space connectivity, refreshments and privacy? How do we handle 12 because this relatively a big number? Yeah. So, Kennedy, usually the life group leader, the life group meeting happens in the life group leader's house. Right now, sometimes the life group leader may say, you know, I have guests in my home or they may say, okay, you know, it's a little bit too much for me. Can we also split it out? Can we meet in other people's house? So, it's open, right? If they want to meet in other members' house also, it's open, right? So, that's not a problem. As long as the life group happens, right? So, it can, here at APC, it's usually the life group leader's house but there are times when they have met in other, within the life group, the life group members' house also, they have met, right? Because it's all around the same vicinity, according to the location, like the area that they stay is all same, very close by. So, yes, so to answer your first question, usually it happens in the leader's house but it can also happen in some of the members' house, right? That's an understanding between the life group itself. What are the challenges in terms of space, connectivity, refreshments or privacy, right? So, for example, there's a life group and there are, you know, maybe 12 people, right? And this life group member leader says, hey, my house is kind of small, not able to manage 12 people. So, not a problem. What we normally do is we will, you know, divide the group into two. So, we'll have a life group. This person will have six or seven people and then we'll raise up another leader either within the life group or we'll raise up a leader around that area or maybe from a different area also, somebody who's within our church, raise up another leader and we'll ask them to start, you know, to lead this life group. So, now you have six and six, right? So, in terms of space, you have, all right, six people, I think that should be a good number. In terms of connectivity, some of our life, all our life groups actually meet based on locations, different areas in Bangalore. So, we have North, South, East, West and then we have wards in each of these locations. So, what happens is we, you know, we make sure that people don't have to travel like 10 kilometers for a life for a study group, right? Maximum two, three kilometers and they're able to reach the life group. So, that answers connectivity. Refreshments. Now, this is something that we did mention when we have our life group leaders training. We tell the life group leaders, see, there's no compulsion of refreshments, right? If you feel you can't do it, it's all right. It's not, they're not, you know, we're not meeting for refreshments. Even a simple tea and biscuit is all right. Even if that can't be done, it's all right, right? So, we inform the life group leaders and that, you know, this is, this is not priority. But, you know, some of them just give tea, biscuits. Some of them have, some of the life groups after the life group, they have dinner and leave, right? Some of them just have tea. Some of them have a juice. So, all of that is there. It is important being hospitable to those who come to the life group. Yeah. So, basic refreshments, it shouldn't be too much. So, even when, there are times when some of them have come back to me and said, you know, I meet every week and every week giving refreshments is a little bit difficult for me. And it's completely understandable because there are 10, 12 people, right? So, it's going to cost them and every week they're meeting. So, I said to him, hey, don't worry. You don't have to do anything. And I also spoke to the life group members. I said, see, this is the thing. Every week refreshments, we may not have every week since. So, I hope that's alright. But over time, what happened was people who are coming for the life group, they started bringing snacks and, you know, some of them got to flask with some tea and, you know, that's alright. It's all just, you know, working together. And so, and in terms of privacy, this is again a challenge because there are times when we have life group leaders in their homes. They have their parents staying in one room. And then, you know, the maybe the in-laws are staying in another room. And it's hard, right? There's no privacy. So, we keep it open. We tell them, right? If you can't, as a life group leader, if you cannot host the life group in your house, please let us know. We can find somebody else who are willing to host the life group, host, meaning they are willing to open up their space, their home. But you will continue to be the life group leader because many times, you know, life group leaders or cell group leaders, they may have this feeling like, if I say, I'm not able to do this or I can't open up my house, what if I, what if they tell me not to be a life group leader anymore? Right? So, what we do is initially is we inform the life group in the training itself. We tell them everything. Feel free to get back to us just because, you know, the life group can't happen in your house. Doesn't mean you're not a life group leader.  And it's just that we're going to meet in another person's house. So, so they are also, you know, they're comforted. They know that, okay, because they really want to serve, right? So, Kennedy, these are things that we normally do. And we do this before the life group starts. So, even before the life group, the leader knows that if in case something, you know, I'm not able to have the life group in my house, I have the option of, you know, asking one of the life group members or I can contact my life group coordinator to, you know, help me with this. It doesn't mean that I will not be a life group leader. Two, the life group leader also knows that about refreshments. So, okay, if I'm not able to, I can always contact the life group coordinator and I can also inform the life group members. So, that is why the training is very important when you, when you, when you choose a life group leader, you need to explain to them all these things, right? Initially itself.  These are things I should not be doing. Kennedy, I hope that answers your question. Yeah, all right. All right. Yes, Christopher, go ahead. Oh, yes. Thank you, Pastor. I wanted to just find out with regards to the, you know, the actual, in the format of the, the life group meeting. There is some, you had mentioned about this, you know, like a sermon summary. Yeah. And I remember that they used to be on the, on the website, there used to be something called a five-minute summary. And that is, you know, that is used to, you know, to be able to provide the detail of the, of the, of the, of the, of the, of the sermon at a summary level. But I just wanted to, I was actually trying to do a search on this and I could not find it anywhere. So, just wanted to understand, is this actually provided to every cell group leader? Yeah.  Because it used to be there on the website available to everyone, but it's not there now. Okay. Sure. Sure. Thank you so much for that question, Christopher. Right. So, I'm just, as you were talking, I was just opening up the website. So what happens is, for example, we have this Sunday sermon, right? So the sermon notes are out. And if you go to the website, I hope you can share, let me just see if I can just pull up that just a minute, please. Right. So if you go to the sources, sermons, okay. So if you go to, on the website, apcwo.org slash sermons. So you have a list of sermons there. So last Sunday was plans, pursuits, and purposes, plans and pursuits. So there, if you go to notes, let me just project it for you. Let me see if I can download this and project. So go down. Okay. Hold on. Let me just download this and show this to you. Sorry. It's just opening this. Okay. Everyone can see this. Right. So this is last Sunday's sermon notes. And this usually comes up on Saturday. So the previous day, it will be on the website. Right. It was probably Saturday evening. It's already on the website. So this was a sermon that we preached last Sunday.  Right. If you go way down, you will get to this place. So end of the sermon here. And then you have life group study guide. Right. So in this life group study guide, you just put a few things here. The life group may commence with the time of word, prayer, worship, and fun activity. Listen to God's word. Read the following scripture references. They can read these. These are basically the verses that were there in the sermon. Then, you know, they can start off with worship, do all of that. And then here are your discussion questions. Question one. Let me highlight that. Discuss the example of a life plan in the template that was presented. Are there ways you can improve upon this template? Are there other ways to help write out a plan and pursue God's purposes that can be useful? So you can probably, you know, give them time, five minutes, 10 minutes. You can just write a few things. Like now the sermon was is more a practical sermon. Right. So it has these things of writing down. Then you have question two. Discuss the truth that seems to be paradoxical. How do we live out this practically when pursuing the God's purpose for our life? Then you got question three. Four factors we talked about. Discuss a few practical examples, how we can keep pressing towards the purposes of God as we navigate through. So you got the questions here.  And we can share, each of them can share their thoughts, share their, you know, their inputs. And then if time permits, each one can take a few minutes to share fellowship by sharing with each other. Then you can encourage each other for praying and ministering to one another. So sometimes what you can do is you can, all of you who just hold hands play together, or you can just make groups of two, if there are 12 people, groups of two pray for each other. And then you can regroup together, pray together, pray for certain prayer points and close with Thanksgiving. So Christopher, this life group study material is available the previous day. So on the 21st Saturday, it will be, it was available. And so the life group leaders, all they have to do is download this and just go down the life group study guide, they can either take a print out, or they can just use their phones and just follow these three questions. So basically, you know, if you have these three questions with you, it's more than enough, right? So you know how to lead the life group. And these are the main questions within the life group. I hope that answers your question. Yes, I understand that part. But if you go one paragraph before that, you will see that there's a mention, or right in the beginning actually, it's mentioned that in that section called preparation. It says to prepare for the life group meeting, you can listen to the sermon key points, sermon somebody in five minutes. That's what I'm looking for. Where is that? Okay, okay. So that is the video. So what what we have is if we go to YouTube, so let me just see that. If you go to YouTube, I hope I have it here. Sure. So what happens is we usually have a, I don't know if it's out yet, but we can see the previous ones. We usually have a five minute kind of a four or five minute clipping of that sermon. I'm not sure if I can find it now. It's basically the sermon highlights. Right. So if you go on to YouTube, you should be able to find it there. So there are some videos, but some of them have not yet come out. So yes, Christopher, to answer your question, if you go on to YouTube, you can listen to the sermon key points. Basically, what the video editing team does is they, so we have the entire sermon, which is about like 15 minutes. So they take key points, do some editing and they have a five minute sermon highlights. So if you go to YouTube, I'm not sure if they've been doing it right now because I just went to YouTube. I didn't see last week's five minute highlights, but I do see some of in the year 2022 it is there are those two minute sermon highlights that are available. So that's something maybe I can talk to the media team and check with them as to if they are planning to restart that. But yes, we used to have that out of the entire sermon five minutes just to highlight the important points. You can listen to that and just to help you. So what I do encourage the live group leaders is listen to the whole sermon. It's only 45 minutes, 15 minutes. So listen to the whole sermon. You can make key points as well. So but to answer your question, that video, that five minute video is over the last few months from what I'm seeing on YouTube right now. We haven't been doing it, but I can check with the team and if I can get their feedback and get back to you on that. I hope that's okay Christopher. Yeah. Okay, Kennedy has another question. As a church, how to evaluate and monitor the developments of a cell group? Example SWOT or any other methods since you have mentioned a coordinator. Yeah. So some of the ways, you know, initially as a live group coordinator, what we used to do was we used to ask people to send in their feedback, send in their reports, right? So there was like weekly reporting and the reports had, okay, this is what we did. We were 10 people. We started with worship for five minutes. We did this, this, this. These are the questions we discussed on and we prayed and ministered to each other and we ended with prayer. Now, over time, what happened was, you know, those reports were, it was not a way to check to know the progress of the cell groups. So what we did was we opened a WhatsApp group, we would connect with each other. So as a live group coordinator, what I would do was I would call the live groups and I would ask them, hey, how did live group go?  Anything, you know, is everything okay? Are the discussions good? Are people coming? Are people being ministered to? You know, you have any questions, feel free to call me, feel free to email me. We don't do the SWOT analysis. So because the SWOT analysis is, it's going to be really, you know, too much for the live group leaders. We want to make it very informal, but we also want to ensure that we are growing. So one of the main ways of, you know, is just by calling them, talking to them and we get to know. And sometimes what we also do is we visit the live groups and we see what's happening, right? Especially if it's a new live group, six, seven months or a few months old, we just go help out initially. So for example, last week, we started a live group in a certain area, but what happened was nobody was there. None of our church folks went to the live group. So the live group leader on Sunday met me and said, you know, we had prepared everything, but nobody came. So I just encouraged them. I said, don't worry. We did continue to talk to people and all of that. And over the week, we found out that there are two families who stay close by. So I just messaged them.  And I'm sure it's going to be a blessing. So they said, yes, we will definitely connect. So there needs to be this constant connection with the live group leaders. That's where the live group pastor or the live group coordinator has to do. He has to ensure that there's this one-on-one happening. People will register. They'll say online, I want to be part of this live group. So you call that person, you email them and say, hey, this is a live group that's closest to you. So there's this coordinating work that the live group coordinator has to do. So that's how we evaluate, we monitor live groups. And of course, sometimes if a live group is, if it's not growing and if it's still just two, three people, we encourage them to continue. But if the live group leader feels he or she wants to stop, we just tell them, hey, let us know. And if you want to stop, it's all right. So we don't take things personal. We don't say, oh, how can you stop God's work, all those things. Let's keep it open. So that's how we make sure that and overtime. So something that we are planning to do this year is since we are growing in live groups, we have many, many live groups. We want to have live group coordinators for North, South, East, West of Bangalore. So we have, so for example, eight live groups in the North of Bangalore, eight in the South of Bangalore, maybe seven or eight in East and West. So what we want to do is we want to have live group coordinators for each. So one person, one live group coordinator will look after those eight live groups, meaning he will oversee all of them. So that's something that we were planning to do this coming year and we're going to work on that. Okay, Abhinav says, a cell group is only for church believers or outside the church. So people from other churches can join, but here's what we tell our live group leaders in the training. People from other churches can join, but when they join, they must understand that APC has a vision and in APC, we discuss the Sunday sermon. And in APC, this is how we do the agenda. We follow the agenda. This is what we do as a live group. Now it's their choice if they want to come, but they cannot come and say, why you want to discuss this? Why you want to do this? Why not? They cannot do that, right? They may be from another church, very good church. Every church has its essence, right? They may say, hey, you know, what an art church we do like this. Why don't we try it here? You say no. So very important when people from other churches come, let them know, especially if they are already believers, let them know the first time they come. This is what we are doing. And if you're comfortable, you're free to come back. But this is how our live group is. This is how we will do it. This is how we've been doing it. This is how we do it. So they know that things will not change just because they have come. Yeah, so is that okay, Abinas? Yeah, okay. All right, shall we, any other question? Okay, so let's go to our notes. Sorry, I just checked the notes. All right, so you know, live group, especially the family life groups, what do we do with our children? Children are a problem or what are they? They will keep crying. Are they going to keep disturbing the meeting? Now, here's something that we can be motivated in. Presence of children and young people is the arrival of the next generation, right? So it is our, it's up to us. It's in our hands how we release them and do things for their life, for their futures, right? A lot of neighbors says there is no further excuse for delaying the equipping of every saint for the work of the ministry. And the word there is every saint which includes children and young people. Now, there are going to be challenges.  This is going to be challenges, right? Then another family may come with a nine-year-old and a seven-year-old, right? Now, here's what we must do.  First one, don't underestimate the spiritual capabilities of children. Children are really, you know, they understand, especially the generation that we are living in now, they understand so clearly, right?  He keeps asking me things about Trinity. And I asked him, what do you understand about Trinity? That's what he said. He said the Trinity is God in three persons. So I said, can you give me an example? And he was able to explain the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit and what they are. He's seven years old. Now, it's not that I have thought, right? I have spoken to him. I keep, you know, playing these videos and all of it. But all of it, he's learned from children's church. Right? And I thought to myself, wow, children are able to understand spiritual truth so much. Right? So you and I have a responsibility for the next generation. We have to build our next generation. So we want our children to be discipled. How do we do that in a cell group? Some of the ways, some of the things that we can do firstly is if they are, you know, above, you can keep a, you know, certain number. You can say probably five or six years and above. They can be part of the worship. Right? They can be part of the worship. Two is if there are more than maybe three, four kids, you know, if you have a children's church team or a children's church pastor or anybody, you can, you know, get resources for them separately so that, you know, when we, you're having a life group, they can meet and one adult can, you know, just make sure that they are also, it's not like you bring crayons and colors and they keep coloring. No, they also are in a place where they learn God's word in that cell group. Right? So children below five, you can bring crayons and snacks and all that. That's okay. But children who are growing up next, six, seven, eight years old, nine years old, get them into the world. Get right resources. Right?  Let them know. Okay, you come do the declaration. These are points we're going to discuss on. Now, it need not be the Sunday sermon, obviously, because it may be something which they may not understand, but it can be something very important. Now, here comes the preparation. So for example, there are 12 in the life group and there are five children. So one person is in charge every week to minister to the children. So what that person must do is he or she must take up a topic, come up with two, three questions and basically lead the children. Now, there is a reason why we want children to be part of the worship and the prayer times. Why? Because they can learn just by observing. They can really learn by observing. And here's an example. You know, when we were in Mangalore, we were a small church about 50, 60 people, 40, 50, and then eventually we grew. And my little one, my first son, he was probably about three and a half, four years old. And every Sunday we used to come to church. It's a small church. So there's only about 50 or people, but we had a drum kit. And all he would do throughout the worship is sit and stare at the drummer. He would keep looking at the drummer. I didn't know. I didn't realize it because I'm leading worship or I'm probably doing something else. But he would sit in another place. It's right in front of the drummer and he'll keep watching him. He did that all through his four years old, all through five years old and six years old. Then the lockdown had come. So what happened was, that was my personal drum kit. So I brought it home thinking I will practice and develop myself during the lockdown. So I brought the drum kit home. I remember this boy, he was six years old. He sat on the drum kit and he started playing and I was shocked. I'm not saying this because he's my son and I'm bragging about it now. He started playing things that people play after two, three years of music classes. But he, tiny, couldn't reach the symbols. But he was really playing well. I took a video and I said, I said to him, how did you learn all of this? You don't have a drum kit. How did you learn? He said, I used to sit in front of the drummer. No, I've watched everything. And right now he plays for Children's Church and the church that we go to. But he's not gone for any classes. He's really good and all by observing. And the Children's Church keeps saying, they know the declaration by heart. They know how to pray. They know how to speak in tongues. They know how to minister to people, pray for people all by watching and learning. So during the ministry of the word, make sure that we don't look at children as, okay, oh, they may not understand. No, they understand. They know. The mistake that I made is I say, oh, the kids are small. They don't know. They understand. They really do. So keep somebody in charge. They can have one person each week, every time you meet for a certain group, one adult, make it exciting, make it meaningful where children will really get an opportunity to share and minister. And also here it says, give children the opportunity to stand and preach. Let them stand. Let them, all the stage fear and all those things that were there. Everything will go away. So give them opportunities. Make the whole life group creative, exciting, meaningful, and God focused. So it's not like, okay, children, because I remember there was this life group that I went to and there's this nine or 10 year old boy. There were two, three of them.  And, you know, those indoor games, chess and all of that. I remember saying, no, no, this is, I mean, they can do all that. But this is sad group. And we need to minister to them as well, right? They need to learn. They need to see. They need to grow. And so that's something that you can do. Now, this involves a lot of planning. But the moment you have two, three children, go ahead, do it.   They'll be really able to stand on the truths of God's Word. Right? So you can think of that as well. Right. Let's get into this. The cell leader. And we have a life group leaders training. We'll just look at these two points and we'll close with today. Responsibilities of the cell group leader. Right? These are basic responsibilities. One, prepare for the cell group meetings, which means we saw those questions. Prepare for them, right? Prepare for the word. If you have additional pointers, you can add them, add additional questions if you'd like, in line with the Sunday sermon. Guide the discussions of the cell meeting. Right? So you are the leader and the mentor. So set a godly example. Very important. Right? Influence through your life context. Set a godly example. Now, why? Because people will see our life. Right?  Right? You are the leader. You are the mentor. Set a good example. Pray for the cell group members. Follow up with the individuals during the week, either by phone, email. Or you can visit them if they are okay with it. Now, we look at what's happening around us. Everyone are working Monday to Friday. So they may not prefer visits, but emails, phone call, WhatsApp, all these things makes connectivity very easy. Lead cell members in ministry and outreaches, like I said before, we have life groups that go to children's homes, life groups that go to destitute homes, old age homes. And so you can lead them, encouraging cell groups to evangelize. And these can be done, especially during Christmas and Easter and times, and even other times you can do that as well. Develop cell members into leaders. Get them to start their own cells. Don't keep them in the nest saying, oh, you belong here itself. No, when you can identify people who can become leaders, they develop them into leaders and release them. Sometimes you may feel, oh, man, there are 12 in my life group. These two are good leaders. They can become good leaders. But if they go, who will look after them? They do so much for my life group. Who will do this? Now, don't feel that God will bring people. God will raise up. You can raise up other people to do other things. So release them. And let's get them to start their cell groups. Now, ministering to the needs of cell groups, which means counseling, supporting. And then there are times when things may need additional help, additional counseling. So for example, there's a youth, he says, hey, I'm suicidal. Kind of depressed. Suicidal has been happening over a year. You can minister to them. But if you see that it's a constant thing, the wise thing to do is connect them to a professional Christian counselor because they will know how to deal with this. And don't say, no, you are part of my life group. Only I must minister to you or the church pastor. No, you must lead them to the right person, right counseling. If there's a couple that is going through bad time and it's leading to a divorce and you know it, if you feel you're not able to give that additional help, lead them to the pastor or lead them to the right counselors. By doing that, you're saving their marriage. It's not like I'm protecting my ego and saying, okay, no, I lonely minister, they have to come to me only. Right. Be open to helping going that additional step. Impart the vision of the church every week or every time you all meet to say, hey, you know, you can make it very informal. You don't have to say, this is the vision of the church. You can just say, hey, let's remember that as a church, this is what we want to do. This is our vision. This is the mission that we have. So you're just putting it across in the right way. Be accountable to your cell pastor and to the church. Now reports, as I said, we don't follow that, but if there are difficulties, if there are challenges, if there are questions that are there, the cell pastors must always be available. And as leaders, you can be accountable to the cell pastor. Right. Personal life and character. We'll talk about more on this, but just a few things. Be an example. Be a model. Leaders produce their own kind. If there's a leader who's always angry, offensive, and it's very likely that the leader that he will raise up will be the same. So remember that we must set the example. Have a passion. Plus have a passion for what you're doing. A passion who a cell group minister leader must be passionate about the vision of the cell group. Must be passionate about why he or she has the cell group and what impact they're making towards the body of Christ as a passion. Intense driving a conviction that demands action. Right.  The Paul says, fan into flame. Right. So it's something that we must do. We can't say, oh, passion is not there now. We must fan into flame and say, God, but somewhere I feel the passion to read your word or to pray is going. It's not there like how it was before. We must fan into flame. Right. And finally, conviction as the leader is a cell that is full of life is led by a leader driven by conviction. Be convinced that your ministry to the 12 in the cell can make a difference in people's lives. Right. Don't feel that, oh, only 12. When will I become the pastor of a church or a thousand people? If that's God's calling you for, start with the 12. Be convicted that you can make a difference in 12 people's life. Then God can give you bigger things. Right. So we'll talk more about personal life and character in section 2. Right. So any questions? Any questions? Any thoughts you'd like to share or just close in prayer? Okay. Hope says in our church, we have 68 cell groups and 30 cell groups of children. Oh, thank you so much for sharing hope. Yes. That's wonderful. Involving children in cell groups are very important. Yes. Very true. Very true. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. All right. Let's close today. We'll meet next week and continue from where we stop. Let's also pray for Abinaz. He celebrates his birthday today. Let's just pray a blessing over his life. Right. Let's pray. Father, we thank you for your word. We thank you for what we have learned today. I pray God that you will continue to impart, empower, equip us, Lord. Fill us with your Holy Spirit. Give us the passion, the zeal, the wisdom, Lord, to lead your people in the right way. Oh, God, Lord, help us, Lord. We need your Holy Spirit. We thank you. We thank you for that. Each one of us are called to minister, whether we are in ministry, whether we are in the workplace. We all are called to minister, Lord. Give us opportunities. Give us the grace that we need a lot to do this. So, Father, Lord, we thank you for what we have studied today, Lord. And we especially want to lift up Abinaz into your hands.  We pray, God, that you will just continue to release your word, your revelations into his heart. That Lord, even as he steps into this new year, we just declare that you are able to do exceedingly and abundantly more than he can ask, think, or imagine by the power of your Holy Spirit that is working in and through his life. We thank you, Father, for the equipping that he is receiving and pray, Lord, that you will use him for your glory, your God. We pray for each and every student of God.

Hey, guys, I'm answering questions from Instagram today and I've got one here from John Doe Glass.  So the worst smell is actually one that happened a couple months ago. You guys probably saw the video. It was the sewage backup. It was by far worse than any death that I've ever cleaned up. If those of you that haven't seen the video, check it out on YouTube. But the problem was is that this elderly lady who was a veteran had entire sewage backup in her apartment. She was afraid to contact management so she lived like that for a whole month. We were walking through soupy, sludgy, poop carpet filled with roaches, but we were able to get in there and remove all that debris for her and cut all the drywall. That by far was the worst smell I've ever encountered. Thanks for your question, John.


I'm Christina from Uproxx and I came to the beautiful island nation of Palao to experience one of the few untouched countries on Earth. I quickly and tragically discovered most people may never get the chance to see it. The sad reality is they could be underwater in mere decades. It's a remote island nation of 20,000 people and hundreds of rock islands. Palao is quite unique because of its geographical isolation. It sits on a ridge where hundreds and hundreds of miles from the closest large land mass, whether it be Indonesia or the Philippines. Diving here is world-class. A lot of people rate it best in the world. The water was super clear, it was amazing, it was like a space walk. Coral here is some of the healthiest in the world, the amount of coral. Hundreds and hundreds of sharks. Different species of fish, it's like the highest anywhere in the world that you can go. Of all the places I've traveled to, this is by far the most beautiful, but Palao is in trouble. We are living on the front line of climate change. The president of Palao has been one of the pioneers when it comes to fighting climate change, so we sat down with him to find out why it was so important to him to act. Sea level rise is already destroying our low-lying atolls and our crops, our home land. The chemistry of the ocean is changing. Weather patterns here are getting pretty crazy. Palao rarely even saw typhoons at all, but in just two years, two super typhoons have hit. And it just decimated the reefs on the east side. What used to be some of the most pristine and spectacular reefs have just gone. People have this apathetic feeling that we're worried about it when the time comes, but actually it's already too late to just talk about it. Our children will not inherit the same world that we grew up in. It's changed, but I think the question now is, can we create a world for them that is habitable? It's not a matter of whether we believe it or not, it's happening. And of course we don't want to leave, this is our homeland. Rising waters around the globe have already swallowed up other Pacific islands, forcing residents there to flee. When we think about that possibility happening to us, it scares us. This eco-minded community is single-handedly doing more to fight global warming than the US, the country 17,000 times its size and population. Palao has done a lot and has a long established history of preserving their marine environments, going back hundreds, even thousands of years. So they're really at the forefront of conservation, if you will, for the oceans. Palao has decided to take a step forward and create a marine sanctuary with our entire exclusive economic zone. They've also established a no-fishing zone in 80% of their water, protecting an area larger than the state of California. Climate change is going to affect everyone, not just the ocean. We're going to see different weather patterns, we're going to see longer warm periods, a melting of the glaciers, we're going to see species disappear. What we hope is that the world will take notice and make similar commitments. We have to be more proactive, we have to deal with it as a global community. Because only then can we address it. Some say we've already gone over the tipping point, some say that we can slow the rate of change down and the Paris agreements and everything that have recently happened. We have to try it, we don't try. It's our, my children, it's your children, it's the children of the future that are going to feel all the impacts of it.

In late 2021, it was reported that pop star and former boy bander Liam Payne was selling his home in Surrey, England he bought back in 2015. The Georgian style mansion was given a modern and chic update inside, boasting open-plan living spaces and over 9,000 square feet of space. Liam had been renting an estate in Buckinghamshire with ex Maya Henry since 2020, and sold his 10,000 square foot home in Calabasas, California to Halsey last year, but it's not sure where he's moved on to next. In these videos, we don't reveal any addresses and even though I've done a house tour of my own place, please do not show up at any private residences because it's not safe for anyone. Liam Payne is an English singer and songwriter who rose to fame being a member of the boy band One Direction. He made his debut in 2008, auditioning for the X Factor and after being eliminated, auditioned again in 2010 when he was chosen to be in One Direction. Liam's debut album as a solo artist came out at the end of 2019 and went on to sell over 18 million singles in just two years since One Direction. At the time of this recording, Liam is estimated to have a net worth of $70 million, an amount that he's continued to rack up after the boy band days through modeling deals and his solo career. Hey guys, it's Kara The Vampire Slayer back with another exclusive house tour here on Famous Entertainment in this one checking out where Liam Payne has called home. Don't forget to like, subscribe and hit me up on Instagram to chat and now let's get into this video. In late 2021, Liam had listed his residence in Surrey, England, which he purchased back in 2015 for $6.8 million. This time, he hoped to score a healthy profit with the asking price of $8.9 million, but in the end he sold it for $8.1 million, still making a good amount in the sale. The Georgian style mansion sat on a 2.9 acre law near the small town of Woking in Surrey, England, about 35 miles from central London. Liam also carried out a major overhaul of the property back in 2018, which resulted in some modern interiors for the classic abode. The three-story mansion was transformed into the ultimate bachelor pad after Liam's split with his baby mama Cheryl Tweedy, who formerly lived here with him. While they were together, they asked for approval on a number of renovations, but those plans dramatically changed once he became single. Inside, the estate boasted 9,170 square feet of space with five bedrooms and seven bathrooms as well as a one-bed and one-bath annex attached to the main home. His house backed onto a golf course and in its quiet location seemed ideal for a couple or a family with children. The grounds boasted rolling lawns, a swimming pool and turf tennis court soccer pitch, while the front of the home had a stately motor court and fountains. Looking at interiors, we can see the mansion boasted open-planned living spaces and was given a very modern look once Liam was done with the renails. There's a foyer with white marble flooring and white walls to match, while moving into the multiple reception rooms, including the main living room with fireplace, the floor is supposed to dark hardwood. This room flows into the dining room and the contemporary kitchen with top-grade appliances, a bar-style seating and an attached TV room with built-in modern fireplace and French doors to the yard. The glass-railed staircase connects the three floors of the mansion and leads to the bedrooms while the glamorous master suite has everything from a plush bed to a sitting area with fireplace and not one, but two massive skylight-topped ensuite baths. Elsewhere, there's a luxe home theater with starry ceiling and a home gym complete with a hot yoga room. Since 2017, Liam reportedly had plans to build his dream man cave on the property and it appears he finally got around to doing that. We can see that this game's room offers a billiards table, bar and several pinball machines. There's even a separate cottage with one bed and one bath for staff or guests. At the end of 2020, it was also reported that Liam and his former fiance Maya Henry were renting out a mansion in Buckinghamshire. He decided to stay closer to where his son Bear lives with his mom, Liam's ex Cheryl. Liam and Maya were holed up in a rented $7 million mansion with seven bedrooms that looked more like a grand hotel from the curved staircase and towering hallway. Other features in this residence included a billiards room, swimming pool and home theater. The couple had shared a number of photos from their time living at the Buckingham Shire mansion where they spent evenings in together and with friends. In a bunch of social media photos, Maya showed off the glamorous hall with carpeted staircase and an open dining area behind her. It seems that Liam had lived here for quite some time but since the pair parted ways it's not sure where he's since moved to. Before we wrap this up in early 2021, it was revealed that Liam found a buyer for his mega mansion across the pond in Calabasas, California and it was none other than famous singer Halsey who snagged the pad for almost $10.2 million. Liam's former Calabasas compound spent 4.75 acres of land and was situated at the end of a tree-covered private lane while the driveway led over a stone and wooden bridge up to the front of the Spanish-style main mansion which spanned 9,659 square feet. Inside there were five bedrooms and eight bathrooms in total and outbuildings like a guardhouse, two guest houses, a fitness pavilion and a recording studio. Another beautiful bonus was the Japanese-inspired tea house and meditation space that sat on a hill beside a koi pond. The grounds of Liam's former home also had waterfalls, picturesque gardens and plenty of rolling lawns. This mansion was built in 1991 enlisting photo shows stunning archways and Spanish tiling on the house. The grand interior is boasted walnut flooring, soaring-beamed ceilings and a full audio system throughout the mansion. You could greet guests in this barrel vaulted entryway that was flanked with columns leading into a great room. The room had a double-height wood ceiling, an arched window flooding the space with light as well as a limestone fireplace. We can also see the wooden staircase leading to the upper level of the residence and a pair of doors to the patio. This space is classic but it's hard to compete with the amazing library Liam had here. The double-height library featured ornate details and was decked out in wood with a second floor gallery, fireplace and sitting area. The kitchen was big enough to host an entire boy band and then some with the double-sized island and bar style seating. But something tells me that his ex-bandmates would never be joining him for a meal anyways. Aside from the high-end appliances, there was also a unique aquarium built into the custom cabinets here. Other main-floor spaces included a formal dining room with fireplace, a breakfast nook and elsewhere as state-of-the-art home theater with widescreen projector. The master suite on the upper level boasted more wood-beam ceilings, a sitting area, a walkout balcony and epic ensuite bath. With double vanities, a soaking tub and separate tiled shower, bathroom had an impressive design as well. A basement level in his former mansion was the perfect space to kick back with family and friends and had a large games room with billiards table, arcade games and more while nearby there was a wine cellar. Liam's home gym was located in its own outbuilding so as you would imagine it was fully stocked. Aside from this, there were the two guesthouses on the property along with ample outdoor space, a fire pit with plush seating and an outdoor kitchen. The extensively landscaped grounds had a rock-lined creek, waterfalls and mature trees as well as a private corner with a hammock to take in the surroundings. Of course, the terraced area also had a mosaic-tiled swimming pool and spa and elsewhere a meditation building. Alright now that we've looked at the homes of Liam Payne, what did you guys think? Did you have a fave? Or what did you think of the modern renovations that he carried out on his surrey home? Be sure to let me know your thoughts down in the comments.

Dear Lord Forster, Dear Kent Larsen, Dear Gesar Ziemer, Dear researchers from the MIT Media Lab and the International City Science Network, distinguished guests from Hamburg and all over the world, welcome to Hamburg. My today's 90-minute lecture is about the basic principles of AI in smart cities. Oh wait, sorry. Today it is without. So Alfie without a lecture, good luck for you. So no, seriously. Firstly, I'd like to welcome you, friends from all over the world, to the third city science summit, taking place for the first time in Hamburg and I think the city of Hamburg can be proud that you have organized such a well-working conference and I hope that you're gonna enjoy the next couple of days here in Hamburg. Secondly, I have to congratulate you and thank the whole CSL team and especially Gesar, not only managing director of the CSL, but also vice president of the HCU, our university. And I think it is a special applause only for you because you have done so well. It is outstanding your efforts and I think for the city of Hamburg as well as for the HCU, it's a great effort that you bring it straight forward to make a better city out of Hamburg. So congratulations. Thirdly, I'd like to address the main motto of the conference. It is cities without, I really love that and Kent told you what it means, cities without. So there are many withouts, without cars, without pollution, without housing shortage. That would be great as cities, right? We all love that, we wanna have that and we wanna have that right here, right now. But I think there's another without and this is the most important thing for me and this is the reason why I wanna talk about that shortly. For me, it is cities without fear. If we have worldwide people suppressed, they have to flee, they have to be refugees because of oppression, wars and dictators, I think our cities have to be the place for those who have lost everything. So and when I heard the first time about HCU and they asked me if I'm interested in the position of being president there, you start Googling, everybody does it, right? So and I found finding places and I was deeply impressed about finding places and I read a lot about CSL and that was really so good that I said, yes, this is a fantastic university, I have to do that and luckily I won. So in a free world, I think we have to ensure and I think this is very important, we have to ensure that no right wing parties or presidents building walls stop us from being free and stop us helping people who are in need. For me, these are the cities without fear. For the next two days, I'd like to wish all of you a great conference, fantastic exchange with older new friends, new experiences, insights into the absolutely hot topics and the research on cities and all around this area, fun also and friendship. I hope that this is the conference you do love and you do remember for a long time. Thanks again, Gesar Kent, now it's up to you, enjoy the show, thank you.


Having a shared passion helps to solidify and strengthen a relationship from a long-term perspective. What about things like taking care of grandkids? I know a couple that one of their passions is, I think the man has four grandchildren and the woman has one grandchild. And this is a couple in their mid-60s, actually early 60s. No, I think he's mid-60s and she's early 60s. But one of their shared passions is spending time with the grandkids. Now, this is tricky for a lot of midlife folks because some people don't have grandchildren. And when one person has grandchildren and the other person doesn't, sometimes that can be a problematic circumstance.


So section 4.4 is all dealing with triangle congruence proofs dealing with side side side and side angle side type of theorems So that's what we're going to work on. We're going to practice proving triangles are congruent using those two congruency theorems So every triangle congruence theorem proof is going to follow the same kind of general theme or the same general format We have three boxes and all of these three boxes together Lead us to the third box or sorry the fourth box. So these three boxes Let's call them box one two and three. They all funnel into box number four and here's why So all of these theorems. So for example, if we have side side side Then then we can prove that the triangles are congruent So what that means is we need to prove each pair of sides are congruent. So we have in box one This would be one pair of sides in box two and Also in box three we have a different pair of sides and what that allows us to do then is it allows us to prove That the triangles themselves are congruent. So it's a triangle something or other I don't know its name yet. We'll be congruent to triangle some other thing So that's why we're always going to have this three boxes kind of flowing into one So let's begin our first proof. Let's give it a shot. Oh, I forgot about one thing Sometimes there are things from diagrams or just how these pictures are drawn that we can consider as kind of given information So when we have two triangles that share a side, then we can use that shared side in our proof so for example triangle side length AB and BA would be congruent to itself and then also we have the Sort of this bow tie type shape whenever we have two lines intersect then we create these vertical angles So in this case vertical angles one and two would be congruent and that doesn't need to be specifically given to us But it's sort of one of those pieces from the diagram. It can be assumed given to us Now we're ready to start some proofs


Okay, hey But it makes a 3500 colors brush stainless metal finish is the best for most kitchens It's gonna stand the test of time the longest the a 3500 is probably gonna outlast the design of your kitchen So that's the one that fits best with most people and in most appliances just watch a fridge stainless steel It's gonna look just like that other options graphite is a matte black This is the one that's gonna show the least amount of fingerprints But it's all relative because even if you get the the brush stainless, which is Silver and you'll see fingerprints the amount of surface area is so small it doesn't really matter but Graphite is great. It's matte black Black stainless before I show you just want to say if you want to support our work You can go to life is no yoke comm and use our links to make your purchase The easiest way to do that is just to type in life is no yoke comm Slash activate so you've decided which color which a 3500 you want to get you're ready. You're About to push that button or tap that proceed to check out Just go to the browser and type in life is no yoke comm slash Activate that'll reroute you back to your shopping cart but it'll tell Vitamix that we sent you and we'll get referral credit and if you want to let us know that you Did that we'll send you a copy of our e-book as a thanks So we really appreciate it and okay, so let's take a really close look at black stainless is kind of like a Gunmetal brushed gold. It's not really black.  It's nice. You can't really go wrong with it. It's also a metal finish You can see it looks different in different lights. I Can make it look black. I can make it look gold. I can make it look Blackish brushed gold. I mean it really depends on the lighting what it's next to its colors There is a premium an up charge for it But just because for no other reason just to have something to have an up charge for It's not any quieter or anything like that or any more durable Hey, alright, I adjusted the camera so I don't have to look down so much Okay, the white the white isn't all white all the way around it's white It is a plastic shell compared to the the metal shells of the Graphite the black stainless and the brush stainless There is a very small difference in the noise output from it if you ask Vitamix They'll say there's no difference if you do test You might even might not even be able to tell the difference with just your ears, but by nature of the materials The the metal is going to dampen the sound a little better than the plastic all white But don't let that be a deterrent for you because it is really immaterial in the grand scheme of things If your eye in the all-white and It would look great in your kitchen go for it. You'll love it It's it's it's great. The other metal finish that we didn't mention is that I didn't mention it's just me And a Shalva she's home with the kids is copper copper is copper It's a copper metal finish and this looks best if you're well If if your kitchen would fit well in a restoration hardware catalog go with the copper. Otherwise, you're probably better off going with Brushed stainless the candy apple red. I don't have a candy apple red a 3500 to show you the plastic shell and some people have a white Black and red kitchen in a red a 3500 is pretty cool Here's the brush stainless metal finish next to the black stainless And here's the brush stainless metal finish next to the graphite And here's the brush stainless metal finish next to Copper and then here's the black stainless next to the graphite. You can see which one is actually black But I guess you could say that the graphite is Kind of a gray. I think because the graphite doesn't change color depending on the light It's more of a black and the black stainless is More of a gunmetal and if you're still here when you're like, why am I still here? Do I like this guy? Do we should I trust him? Well, we made a video Can you trust life is no yolk put a link to it right here? You can click on it and it's a little bit about our story How we got into this and just just watch it's a little dramatic, but it's It's nice. Okay Thanks for watching Excited for you in your 8 3500. Can you trust life is no yolk? Okay?


Is there anything worse than having greasy hair? How about greasy hair when you can't have a shower? You want to have a clean barnet, but there's no way to get rid of all that grease. No matter how hard you try, you just can't get that salad and fresh look. The Tap Dipping Flicking There's no use.  But wait! There is something that can help save the day. Science! Science has been known to solve a lot of life's problems. And now it's helping fix the blight of dirty hair. All you need is a simple silicate and a brush. Worried you won't have any silicate? Well, don't. It's only science for a type of rock. You can just use talc. Now take your silicate, shake it on the hair, making sure you cover everything. That's right. And then brush out with a scientific brush. Keep brushing. Now that's salad and fresh. Nice one, science. And here's how it works. Silicates like type of hydrophobic, which means they don't like to mix with water, but they love to mix with oils and groups. The talc absorbs the oils in the hair and takes them with it when you brush it out. Kind of like dry shampoo that you might have seen. So now you'll never have dirty hair again. Thanks, science!


Hey, this is Brett, and this 2018 Ford F350 regular cab, 142 inch wheelbase XL is stock number 13214Z. I am here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, your new and used heavy-duty truck headquarters. This 2018 Ford F350 has the 6.7 liter power stroke diesel engine. This truck has been fully safety inspected by our service shop, has a fresh oil and filter change. All the fluids have been checked and topped off, and this truck is 100% ready to go. I'm going to do a thorough walk around on this vehicle. Go under the hood, start it up, take a look inside, check out on the underbody, just fill you in on everything that this truck has to offer. Shadow Black is the color, and I shoot all my videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or television, I highly recommend turning them on right now because it is your best way to check out the quality, condition, options, and cleanliness of the truck before seeing it in person. So this one has a CM flatbed on it. It's 8 foot 6 inches by 7 foot 9 inches. So it's in really nice shape, and it does have a gooseneck hitch in the middle there. I'll show you that in just a little bit down the driver's side. Those in the bed and in the body all look really good. Front fender is in nice shape, and if you like the video, you can subscribe to my YouTube channel, which is YouTube.com slash Summit Auto. Click the bell notification so you get updates on the videos I do each and every day here at Summit Auto. This one has the STX appearance package, and it also has the polished aluminum rims. Michelin tires on this one, these are LT 235 80R 17s, and they are Primacy XCs. Front tires look very new. I would say 80, 85% of the tread left on those tires. Look at how clean that frame and underbody is. It's like new under there. Front fender is in excellent shape. Didn't see any major dents or dings in there. Headlight lenses are nice and clear, and the front bumper is in fantastic condition. You get the chrome trimmed grille. The hood is in really nice shape as well, and it does have the clearance lights up top. Didn't see any dents or dings on that hood, and the passenger side front fender is in nice condition as well. Passenger side rim, no major scuffs or scrapes on there. Down the rest is side of the truck. You can see just how clean the body is, how reflected the paint is. Comes with some nice step bars. And I take these HD videos, so if you are far away or even if you're close by and you just cannot make the trip down, you can still see the truck, hear the truck, and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here. So when you do get here, there's absolutely no surprises. You can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at. And if this video helps you make that buying decision, let your salesman know that you saw the video that it was helpful and that Brett sent you. Frame and underbody looks really good. See the flatbed on there, how that's attached. This one actually does have the FX4 off-road suspension package, so you get the skid plates, has all the remaining factory exhaust, so it hasn't been altered in any way. And the lower rockers and cab corners all look really good. Comes with the nice step bars, and these back rims are in excellent shape as well. You can really see that anti-sway bar with the camper package right there. All my other videos, you can't really see that, so that's pretty cool. And the back tires, they have just as much tread as the front tires, and they're exactly the same. You can see it has little wear knobs on it, so really new tires on this truck. I don't know if we put those on in our safety inspection or not, but very new tires. It does have a receiver hitch and seven pin wiring back here. We'll hop up into the bed. So I can show you that gooseneck hitch there. There is seven pin wiring right there as well. All right, we'll hop down. This back rim for full disclosure is in nice shape as well. And it looks like this bed is from Madisonville, Texas. Does have the heated telescopic tow mirrors, built in directional signals. They do telescope out like that. They fold in like so. Inside the XL package gives you the gray vinyl interior. There are no rips or tears. They get 40, 20, 40 split-bends seating, fixed glass rear window. Seats are all in pretty nice shape. Weather or all-weather rubber floor mats or floors, sorry, it's been a long day. Auto headlamps, tilt, telescope, external power windows, power locks, and power mirrors. We'll hop inside and check out the miles, the radio, and everything that this truck has to offer on the interior. It does have the MyKey. It does have 38,678 miles. You do get a digital speedometer, or I'm sorry, a compass display on there. You might get a digital speedometer too. I'm not really sure, an outside temperature display. Instrument cluster is very nice and clean. You get the cruise and information center controls on the left, Bluetooth and audio controls on the right. The six-speed automatic transmission with the optional tap shift. This one does have the touch, it's not touchscreen radio, but has the AM, FM, and serious satellite radio capabilities. It also has a CD player. This is also where your backup camera shows up. Not only do you have the backup camera, not that it's very helpful, but it does have the cargo cam. You can see it's blocked by that headache rack there. It does work, and the backup camera works nicely as well. Downhill assist control, stability control, and your factory exhaust brake. Turned out four-wheel drive factory brake controller, climate controls right there. Audio controls, it does have a USB jack down there as well. 12-volt power point, and 110-volt 400-watt max plug-in. Passengers side floor and seat are in excellent condition, smells very clean inside this truck. I don't think it's ever been smoked in, and the headliner is in nice shape. You do get six auxiliary update switches and map lights right there. We'll start it up and take a look under the hood. It's right up. No check engine lights or anything like that. I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today. And hopefully from this HD video, you've been able to verify the quality, condition options, and cleanliness of this truck all the way around inside and out. See those cab lights are working nicely. Under the hood, we have the 6.7-liter power stroke diesel engine. The engine bay is very clean. It runs very smooth. This truck has been fully safe and inspected by our service shop as a fresh oil and filter change.  And this truck is 100% ready to go. Saw your emission sticker right there, and I will show you the tire and loading information sticker on here. So there is that. Probably changed a little bit. I don't know if you can see the truck bed information right there. Anyways, thanks for checking out the video. And I would highly recommend this truck from a quality and condition standpoint.

Cool. All right. Let's go to listener Tom here, who has a question about Monterey says I have an older Mac of 5k Retina mid 2015 and it continues to serve all my needs. I would like to move from Big Sur to Monterey, which requires an iMac late 2015 or newer. I'm looking for your guidance, experience direction on moving to a non-Apple-supported version of macOS on my current iMac. I'm concerned about things like future macOS point updates, application support, new capability limitations, performance, etc. I don't want to get caught. Are there any reputable online sources that I could use to install the unapproved versions of Monterey on my unsupported Mac? It says I do expect to purchase the first large screen iMac version that has an ARM-based M series chip, whatever that's going to be called, when it becomes available, hopefully not too much longer of a wait. I've never had it. I've been tempted to head down the path of installing the latest macOS on an unsupported older Mac that I have, right? I've looked into it and there are online sources with plenty of information and help and all of that stuff. But all of the things you mentioned, Tom, the point updates, breaking things, applications not running right because they're expecting libraries to work that don't because your Mac doesn't have the hardware to support them, any other new capability limitations. Literally, all of the things you mentioned, including performance, are the reasons that I've always stopped in my tracks. It's like, yeah, you can often do it. I don't know that I've seen anybody doing it for Monterey yet, but I also haven't looked. So it's possible they're out there already and they probably are figuring out how to make this work. But Apple doesn't generally choose to make an operating system unsupported on a given Mac arbitrarily. Usually there is a specific reason. When there were all those machines whose graphic cards didn't support metal and then when the operating system required metal, that was the day that you couldn't run the new operating system on those Macs. And those Macs were still plenty fast, but they just didn't have hardware that metal supported and Apple was moving forward and needed to be able to leverage all those technologies. And so they did. But those are generally the reasons why your machine's not supported anymore. I've rarely seen it where I would say, well, that feels like a money grab, right? It's never really felt that way. It's been more of a technology limitation. And so I think, even if you can make it work, you're going to wind up with a, you know, you know me. I like living on the bleeding edge, but that just felt like more headache than I wanted to inherit. Sort of just to run a computer.


Alrighty, so lots of work is starting. As you can see, they are digging out two narrow paths in the second tunnel. So what's going on here from what I understand, and I'm gonna give you guys my speculation, so keyword speculation, is that they are gonna be building a ramp, temporary ramp to get up in there, whether they keep it as a maintenance loading dock or whatever, they're gonna be building a ramp, and if you look closely, you can see that yellow machine down there beside the hot dog sausage timber building, whatever that it was called. That is what they use to carry in Yukon track back in the day. So I have a feeling that they're about to build a ramp, and this is where they're gonna load track into. So to picture it, essentially, they don't carry track vertically in, so they have to carry it sideways in. So they needed a really big cutout to carry these bigger track segments into the mountain. With that being said, that's because we know that the station is being constructed inside the mountain, so it'll be interesting to see what happens over the next two weeks if they're getting ready for that already. So just really interesting. Outside of that, front gate work is going along nicely, welding on Leviathan's going along nicely. The updates have been a little slow, guys, because the wind has been like 85 kilometers an hour, so I haven't been able to go out and fly, but that worked for our advantage. You're gonna see that in a second, but here they are installing the last pile on the left side of the reinforced tunnel. They are then gonna go work on the right side and reinforce that side of the tunnel as well. This is really interesting. We're gonna have to keep our eyes on this. Obviously, they're not reinforcing this tunnel for no reason, but this whole project has been extremely confusing to cover. It's just every week.  Just to make fun of it, because, honestly, there's just every week something changes and it just gets even more confusing. With that being said, the wind has knocked the tarp off of that track piece that was stored down there, and yes, we can confirm that it was Guardian's piece of track exactly located where we thought it was located. So definitely interesting. As work is now, literally, where that hole in the tunnel, by the way, to put it into perspective, is very close to where this track segment would have been taken off two floors up in the mountain, so just keep that in mind. With that being said, nothing else much going on. Gonna go fly today, and yeah, I have a feeling and I have something to report for you guys, and the podcast will be tonight at 9 p.m., tonight at 9 p.m., so definitely looking forward to that, and thank you so much for supporting the construction updates. Drop a like if you're still here, and have a good one, guys. Bye.

Hello, everyone. My name is Dr. Malik Arjun Kalashatthi. I am a consultant hematologist and bone marrow transplantation physician at Manipal Hospital, Old Airport Road, Bangalore. 4th of February is globally marked as World Cancer Day. On this day, across the globe, we all want to reach out to as many people as possible to set right the true information about cancer to do away with stigma and misinformation about cancer. We all know, every year, across the globe and in our own country, there are researches going on with regards to almost every cancer. With each passing day, every cancer has newer modalities of treatment. There is indeed a paradigm shift in treatment of many cancers wherein we are moving away from dreadful toxic conventional therapies to more precise, targeted and less toxic immunotherapies, for example. And same is true in our own country as well. We all want to reach out to patients and their families to say that cancer should not scare anyone, that it is important to diagnose it as early as possible. All of us have suffered due to the global pandemic of COVID-19 infection. I want to reach out to our patient and families to say we take utmost precautions in terms of treating our patients, using safety norms and using all the safety checks when we treat individuals with cancers so that the treatment is not interrupted, their disease should not progress because of lack of follow-ups or timely treatment. As with many cancers, I, being a hematoconcologist, I can tell you that increasingly in blood cancers like acute lymphoblastic leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, Hodgkin's lymphomas, various non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, were increasingly either using immunotherapy modalities in isolation or combined with chemotherapy protocols. And with these newer modalities of treatment, more and more patients are getting cured, even those with difficult cancers, cancers which have come back after initial therapy, cancers which several years before were almost incurable are being treated with lesser and lesser toxicity. In this day and age, what we do as individuals in our families, in our communities, universities and in our countries do matter and have impact not only on our lives, but on the lives of everyone around us. Together, our actions can help save lives and that is the theme for 2021 World Cancer Day.


One thing narcissists don't expect you to do. It may always seem like the narcissist has the upper hand.

And more hardware coming in after a stellar fall season for BSU. Senior goalie Anna Foby was named a Division II Academic All-American today by the college sports information directors of America. Foby set the school record for wins and shutouts in a season and carries a perfect 4.0 GPA. And on the gridiron, Gunnar Olszewski was named to the D2 coaches All-America first team. The senior defensive back recorded three interceptions this year and finished his career second in program history in interceptions and first in solo tackles and they'll leave a big hole for their teams last next year.
