catch some big fish we're gonna try some different areas we are we're gonna try the pond over there that we fish briefly like off-camera I put one question we only fish this pond for probably what 15 minutes yeah it wasn't very long we've only fished that one for like 15 minutes I think we're gonna start off with that one today I'm gonna be chucking a frog because guess what man I love frog fishing we don't have much time for frog fishing bro it might it might cut out it's running thin it's running thin right now we got it we got a few weeks around here maybe a month if we're lucky where we're at now you know where we're at but you got a lot of frog fishing so anyways we're gonna hop right into this we're gonna tie up a rod I'm gonna show you guys exactly what I'm throwing and we're gonna try to catch some big fish if you guys want to check out the big bass energy clothing line link down below thank you guys so much for the support everybody who's ordered some of the merch recently can't thank you guys enough but let's go ahead and hop right into it well the combos that I brought out today I got the old Christmas edition in the look at this flutter I got a little low when I was yeah I got the Christmas edition man not not the most ideal thing I want to be throwing the red on the green but you know that's what we got today that was the bait I was throwing on the near you know what that is that's a big uh notice called what's it called it's a chug bug that's actually a saltwater louver yeah do they crush it I mean look at it look at it you can see the teeth marks on that thing they were just hammering that thing yeah you got there's galvanized hooks that's how you know it's a saltwater bait yeah but then we got a pro ti on a mock crush I'm gonna rig up a bottom bait on this for later on during the day if the frog bites just not happening but I'm am gonna put a frog on this rod if you guys are wondering what frog let me show you we got the ovega frog by 6 cents if you want to get the discount a pop a code up on the screen and you can go check them out but this is just a white vacant frog if you guys are wondering about the conditions is actually very cloudy today and it feels great out and usually I would not throw a white frog on a cloudy day I'd probably prefer a black frog but what are you throwing today I can't decide I've been catching a few on this on the swim bait right here recently so I might throw this for a little bit it's a little curly tail guy right there and then a wacky rig I think and we have a little so you're just throwing whatever you're just trying to catch the fish today that's exactly what that's cool guys we're gonna tie this up and get started like I said if they're not biting this we're gonna switch up let's get it all right so oh look at that bird all right so let's use on the phone right now so I'm gonna cast right here this is in the pond that we're gonna really start off on but guess what we're gonna make a few casts because if we can catch one real quick that would be awesome I'm just hoping they're gonna come up for top today I'm praying we don't have too much longer with this top water bite so I want to juice it for as much as I can get it for hopefully we'll get us a really good one right here there's no more grass there was a lot of grass here previously as you guys know from other videos that we filmed and all the grass is just about died off now guys oh my god there was a freaking Joe do do do what no way I don't know this is a different fish oh my gosh what look at that little fatty first fish today good thing we stopped here made some cast that first bite holy mother of pearl that was about three and a half pounder but we got us a little active one pound right here on the Vega frog in white dude let's go that's a good sign there's some aggressive freaking bites that first one oh most aggressive little tiny dude I've ever seen beautiful color dude I had a megalodon hit me right before so I cast it all the way up in that corner freaking like three and a half pounder dude I hook set my frog hit the water about 15 foot closer to me I popped it a couple times in this one ate it he's the he was just about to jerk my hand off a second ago I was one of the most hyper fish I've ever caught alright you should have saw him shaking a second ago if I had a seizure with that thing in my hand I can already see yeah that's fine let me cast in this corner one more time that bite was too too wicked here I'll show you it was right right there dude it the bite was like insane dude I made it over there I popped it about three times I was like look at this cast and all the sudden dude he was big what the heck is going on what is going on you can't tell me I have to leave here right now pleasure all right I'm gonna just make one more all right brother biting me something just hit over there too I mean I just jerked my frog under the surface and he ate it that just tells you that today's gonna be a good day I don't think I can ever recall a moment where a fish ate my frog while I was jerking it like a fluke what a great start to today guys that's just awesome right there I wish we would have caught more than that one fit I mean technically caught too but there was some fish in this corner maybe once we hit that new pond that we're talking about maybe we'll come back over here because they're eating it and if they're going you to frog you best of it I'm gonna throw it in there right there that's what I need to be doing come out of the tree needed yeah I'm down I got a little too excited there that's a good one yeah we'll go fish that other place as much as I don't want to when you're catching them like that it's pretty little fishing it looks a little bit better than the first one yeah little bigger just not as fat but I guess we're gonna go to the other pond they're biting in here we'll come back we'll come back for a few casts before we leave this area the second fish today technically third already it's gonna be a good day yeah we should probably wait for the leaf blower that's annoying well Fletcher just gave me another excuse to oh my god I'm about slipped there's zero tread on these tires boys Fletcher just gave me another excuse to cast again so you know shout out to whoever just bought some merch you're the man actually alright there's two orders shout out to Carl and Shannon big shout out especially to Shannon I'm pretty sure she's already made a couple orders this week big shout out to you guys thank you so much for supporting the brand supporting the channel it means a lot and you can get your merch today I kick in their best talking these fish bro they are really munching it oh no what in the world dude that's the one thing about braid it will randomly break your heart Fletcher I don't even know what I got going on dude no no bro I already don't have enough braid on this reel oh dude it did it to yeah it did it to me for no reason like literally no reason that's that's the thing about braid it will literally backlash for zero reason given it just wants to mess you up I will be right back it's just so aggravating why not have any more long cast today like if this was like my fault I would be more fine with it but the fact that it just did it for no reasons in mind all right we're gonna come back and grab this but I'm just gonna set this right here until we leave a ball it up so I can see it to grab it we're gonna retie this frog now basic uni knot only set it a million times but I know some of you guys haven't seen it oh what in the world are you doing over there boy yeah all right we're good almost at the scissors here so I remember to grab that break all right we walked down a little bit see if there's something along these tree lines I actually think these bass are roaming a little bit more today I think these bass are roaming this tree line edge with these clouds out so I've had a ton of bites in the same spot unless there's just a ton of fish stacked up there oh my god there's bass in front of me I might should throw at this bank he sees me or does he what all there's two oh yeah there's two bass probably should have thrown down the bank before I walked up on it one thing to think about all these fisher fish the bank before you walk up on it he did see me he knows it up to it like he was gonna eat it now all we gotta do is start throwing parallel catch these fish before we walk up on him pond is very clear today too it's actually been there's another one right there someone he's actually going right over to my frog they're not gonna eat it but I can tell you what those bass are doing and we were just talking about they're roaming they're roaming up and down this bank right now trying to find some bait to eat what they do on these cloudy days that's exactly what those bass are doing we're just talking about it then roaming that tree line they're actually roaming this flat bank should be one in this corner I'm a betting man all right there's one school and over there I started reeling in my frog and one just about the heck I didn't hook them you should eat it come on baby come on baby there's no way it's always stupid stuff that happened there we go you choked it dude I mean that one choked choked it oh yeah you like that frog don't you boy oh yeah your friends are over there schooling so I'm gonna get you back in the water they tried to distract me from catching you the first time good thing you fell for it they're they're schooling under them trees this is crazy all right thank you bud you're a beautiful little fish thank you so much for making the episode of kicking the bass TV baby okay now let's try to catch these fish I mean when I made those cast over there there's just amazing cast they're jumping over there let's see if we can catch one yeah these fish are roaming the banks guys that's exactly what those bass are doing on that side this bastard just going up and down the bank chasing bait but they're a little up that's a horrible cast they're a little up in those trees right now so I don't even know if I'm gonna be able to get one a bite I don't know if I've ever tried to cast all the way across this I had that wine that didn't break off I could easily do it that's it guys that's it something fell in the water ah no Jimmy dude they're just some of them just aren't eating it and I'm throwing my medium heavy because I wanted to jank them today and it's just if I have my heavy I'd probably catch all this fish I need to change out these tires on my feet dude I keep slipping I've literally almost fell probably four times since the last time you saw me bro I mean there's no tread on these things there ain't nothing schooling the frog action maybe I got some grass on my frog dude that's a good one but you actually ate it he's running at me so hard he came off oh no he didn't he was running at me I didn't even know he looks so much bigger out there it looks so big when they dive on us a good fish though and these fish got me huffing and puffing today they were just schooling out there I threw my frog in there and he ate it crazy I am walking the frog though you know I'm working it like a little tiny baitfish oh my gosh got myself soaked nice that was a perfect landing for that bass just so you want to get away from me usually I want to be able to throw a frog out there and stuff like this but this frog one being a poppin frog and two with with how I'm walking this thing I can work it in open water hold up we got a shout out coming up shout out to Paul for purchasing a big bass energy hoodie thank you so much Paul for the support you're the man a little bit of sloppery there my sunglasses off holy cow actually seem like a decent one you should hit it again he that's a decent one I think this is a different fish that's a good one that's fish today get up here boys look at this we're just smoking them today that's a beautiful bass right there oh my hook you twinkie the one time I asked for you to get off my hook okay beautiful fish almost a two-pounder they're going back in the water thank you Jimmy all right now let me get this grass off here holy cow that was a different fish I actually made a bad cast started reeling in and saw a wake behind me paused my frog completely and he engulfed it we might be able to catch like three fish right here we're not even gonna need to go to that new pond for a video I swear we're just they're biting today man I haven't seen these fish bite in a good couple weeks like that fishing has been tough everywhere I've really been what is up with that man well first pond very successful honestly we got way more fish than I was expecting to catch here this wasn't even our goal to come to this pond really we were gonna go hit the other one but there's a guy with the mower and which is really loud so we didn't want to go out there but I'm very happy with what we caught we're gonna go ahead and go on to pond number two and see if we can catch some more fish and hopefully catch some bigger ones but I think they're gonna bite today if we get in front of some big ones all right we just got to the pond guys we haven't really fished this one in the videos and look at the slop that we have in this corner that is perfect for this old Vega frog to go through we're gonna smoke them in the slop oh man don't do that are you freaking kidding me dude I mean I can't forward I have no tangled up and I didn't yeah that's just ridiculous like how ridiculous is that though my god like well guys we might be done frog fishing today we are gonna throw this little Ned rig I had on from that tip video that we filmed last week if you haven't watched that be sure to go check it out it's a cool little video all right by the way this network is not meant thrown on a big capture I think everybody knows that but oh a little tiny bash has hit my line and he ate it oh my god smallest bass I've ever caught that's a bass bro that's a bass he jumped up after my line and all right this is you gotta take picture on this it's more important than my PB shot what a freaking toad by the biggest fish I caught all year like this is a Ned rig guys this ain't no normal worm like that fish is every bit of four inches oh my god one is eight bait right there dude I'll really watch them dive over it yeah it was so cool yes sir little fatty that is a fat guy look at that oh my gosh he almost choked it short and fat that was awesome man that was a cool bite that was cool I really watched them like dive over that thing the same freaking thing bro that's a better one next cast he did the same thing as the last one oh my gosh it's the same fish that was literally deja vu if I know it bro that was insane it is literally hooked in the same spot to do that's literally the same clip there's nothing different like it literally the same thing that's crazy that was a little better though so longer fish not as fat he's still a fat guy man dude that is insane I'm having to kind of hop this bait because so much grass on the bottom so I'm kind of like throwing it out there and just hopping it trying to keep it a little bit off the bottom that's why they supposed to dive and everything like that dude that was insane bro they are munching it flutter this one has like a little kicker tail on it yeah they're up on the bank and I'm not even see the thing is I'm not letting it hit the bottom I'm just kind of popping it because it's so much grass gosh these fish are awesome so much fun throwing a bait like that I still don't do it much should be one right here see this little indention on the bank oh oh gosh oh gosh dude that's a really big one oh no bigger than that bro oh dude it's huge flutch oh god it has to be six plus I'm not even kidding I'm praying that my hook doesn't do oh my hooks a lot like a light wire bro oh dude right here flutter oh dude that's like a seven pound six seven pound grab that thing please oh man we were just talking about it dude dude bro that is oh my god you showed to your fam look at the belly on that fish man oh that thing's bent out to I know all right guys hold that fish up oh my gosh she's so big she's not was she like high five five and three quarters yeah I was gonna say high five 11 ounces baby wow six pounder you can't complain can't complain with just the way this fish looks that's how a ten pounder looks but just longer that's what I was saying I was like this fish was a little bit bigger just overall it'd be a eight pounder you know all day all that's a that's a future giant well guys we got to get back in there now get a beautiful release on this fish maybe get a quick picture that is just awesome all right guys almost a six pounder let's get her back in the water that man man on a net rig unnatural fish right here I just want you to look at that he don't catch him like that too often oh oh she's ready artist look at that she wasted no time we kept her in the water make sure she was safe I was I was kind of scared of an alligator bro when you were over there oh like one coming up in the off the video with that


if there are specific conditions unique to the proposal. And it sort of seems to me the specific condition unique to this proposal is you're already in nonconformance with that along Lockland because you know we're close to 20 feet. So I'm comfortable with giving you less than 20 feet as long as you don't exceed the existing nonconformance on Lockland, which it looks like you're not going to do. So as long as you're not exceeding the existing nonconformance, I think you're okay from my perspective. Can't speak to my other colleagues. However, I believe and I've read this numerous times, I believe we do not have the authority to wave or mitigate the fourth story stepback that is bringing that back seven and a half feet on the fourth story. David talked about the reasons why that was instituted by town meeting. And my understanding is town meeting had some discussion about giving us the authority to wave or limit that and it's not in the regulations. So I, I would hate to sink the project for this reason, but I really feel like my hands are tied by the bylaw on that and with the other pieces. I am with you on all of the other pieces. I agree with basically what Ken and Rachel said about some of the view of the building, but they're much more expert than I am about that. But I can't go with you on the fourth story stepback. That's it. Alright, I'm going to open this up to public comment. I would ask that we move through this quickly and respectfully. I'm not going to get into arguments with anyone, please. Please state your name and address and I will allow for three minutes. Each please use the hand raised function through zoom. I don't always see you. There are a lot of people in here. I don't necessarily see you if you have your camera on or you're just waving at me. So the best way to get called on is to use the actual zoom chat function. Ben Rudick, go ahead. Yeah, Ben Rudick 40 web Cowat Road and also got my way Sarah in the background. First I'll say that I'm very sad to see Toraya go that was the only source of high quality affordable sushi in the greater Boston area so if you could replace all 1200, 1300 square feet of retail with the giant Toraya that'd be awesome. On a serious note, speaking for myself and on behalf of Arlington neighbors for more neighbors which is an advocacy group pushing for more housing and greater in Arlington and all greater Boston. It's wonderful to see housing being proposed. I think this is of all the various ways and places we could build housing to build smaller units right along NASA have right near a bus stop. This is about as straightforward as housing production gets in this area. And so I'm really excited to see this get built. I'm hoping that the board can resolve the issues around the mixed use intention of the area. I'm excited to see some discussion about giving other variances to allow that to happen without eating into the residential space. Yeah, and just to say that that we as Arlington historically have done a pretty poor job of producing more housing over the last 3040 years. And if we're going to tackle the deep housing crisis in our town and throughout the region we need to produce a lot of it we need a lot of affordable housing we need mixed affordable market rate we need market rate we need small units we big units we know sorts of things. But you know small units right on transit right on Mass Ave. This is about as straightforward as housing gets and I hope from the bottom my heart that that this gets done so thank you so much. Thank you Ben Christian Klein. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. My name is Christian Klein I'm a resident at 54 Newport Street. I had submitted a letter in regards to the prior submittal. I must say I'm very glad on a lot of the changes that the that the applicant has made. The attention to the space around the butt shelter specifically moving the building back creating a little more of a buffer around that, and creating a better connection between the building and the sidewalk. I think that's a much more successful than it was shown originally. I also appreciate the changes to the basement level and the layout of the long term bicycle parking I think the parking is a much more accessible in the format it's shown now and moving the short term parking to the front of the building is also very well appreciated. I like the way it's cited. I don't know about the fourth floor setback but I do like that horizon line that sort of cut around the building I think that that does a very nice job of sort of making that delineation, even without the building necessarily moving backwards and playing. On the green on the landscaping in the front. I thought the renderings were very good. There's not a lot of very vertical greenery and so I was just curious if you would consider any sort of climbing plants for the front of the building that could help to sort of soften that edge so everything is not just knee height. As a possibility. In regards to the commercial spaces. My concern is just they're very shallow. And there's, I think a lot of the reason that the building across the street had difficulty attracting tenants was the shallowness of the space there's just nowhere to get out of being in front of the windows. If you're in front of a store and you want to have a back of house, you need to be able to get away from the front of the store and there just isn't that option here. And the two apartments that are on the parking lot there's no buffer between the parking lot and the side of the building. It's going to be very much like a motel with people driving in at night, you know right up to the side of your bedroom wall.  As a possibility. And then, since you said I don't know the full extent of the excavation that's going to be required for the hazard mitigation. But if that if the excavation is of such an extent would it make sense to consider doing any sorts of ground source heat pumps for the building where you're already doing the excavation to begin with. It may not be a viable at all. But as a possibility if you're already digging up the site to a certain depth, does it make any sense. That would certainly simplify your roof plan. The last, the last thing I have is in regards to the usable open space in the bylaw for a residential use in a mixed use development in the be to district it's supposed to be 20% of the gross floor area the residential portion of the building is usable open space and currently the building has zero usable open space as proposed. I understand the site currently has zero usable open space, however the site is being raised for this development. And so Mr chair I ask you does does leveling the site necessarily allow the current owner to maintain any of the pre existing non conformities in relation to the building, or the lot, because it seems to me that the zoning bylaws are very clear that it's supposed to be 20% of the gross floor area is usable open space on this site for mixed use building with residential, and I would just encourage the board to. That's something. Thank you Christian I let you go over a little bit that's something I'll look into and keep in mind as we work with the proponent here. I appreciate your indulgence. Thank you. Carl Wagner. You hear me okay. Yeah. Okay, Carl Wagner 30 Edge Hill Road Arlington. I want to thank the board for the useful questions and concerns that they raised to the applicant. I just should say as a person who lives in this town, not as a member of the board, that building just looks like it belongs in a city, not in a town.  I can't believe I miss it now, but this building manages to make it look like that. In fact, this building's massive size four floors basically straight up, even makes the terrible building across the street 882 massive mall and not so bad by comparison. So I hope that the board will consider that they should uphold the the rules of the B2 business zone B2 stands for something like neighborhood business zone. And it means that the businesses should conform and work with the neighborhood or whatever they were at the time, they were supporting the neighborhood, this building and the applicant's plan doesn't yet support the neighborhood. So in 2016, people like me in town meeting voted for the mixed use building by law, and that allowed all sorts of open space to go away, it allowed buildings to get much larger less parking it allowed all sorts of nasty things that belong in an urban environment. If we allow businesses to be supported by some accessory apartments or residential and a lot of people were thinking of the capital district down in East Arlington. This building is not the capital district. This is not supporting business. This is misusing mixed use law to make accessory tiny business on top of a ton of residential. And I think it means we have to relook at the mixed use law and perhaps get rid of it or substantially change it. I thank the board again for holding this building to the letter of the already ridiculously large rules that are allowed for in the mixed use law until we can change that it makes use law and certainly consider maybe three floors that would get rid of all the problems of the parking and the ridiculous size. That's it. Thank you very much. Thank you. Don Seltzer. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Is it possible to have the last of my slides put up. I want to go ahead. Let's move through this quickly. I don't want to argue about it with you. Next time please get it in. By Friday. Go ahead, Jenny. Go ahead, Don. Two and a half and 43. I like to call your attention to the parking situation. I don't see the slide. The parking lot, as it's presented there is greatly undersized. It does not meet the by law requirements for dimensions. One thing that's lacking is it requires a five foot landscape buffer between the parking lot and the building. You can't just have the cars come right up to the building as was shown. You also are required to have 24 feet in the middle for a drive aisle. The dimensions as we're shown here. That's the last one. Yeah. The last one. Thank you. It's seven feet short of what the bylaws require. The only way to really deal with that is reduce the amount of parking. The only way to really deal with that is reduce the amount of parking. The only way you would fit into this area is a three storey apartment building where the first floor was all commercial and you had 12 apartments in the two floors above. You'd have enough room for the parking. You'd have enough room for the usable open space. That is what the mixed law. Mix use by law was intending that type of usage. Thank you. Test. Can you hear me? Yes, please go ahead. Aram Holman, 12 Whittemore Street. I'll try to be respectful of your time and to get through things quickly. I want to address a couple of things. One is what I consider inappropriate use of the mixed business district. I think other people have said words to the effect that you're supposed to have a mix of business and residential. It was not intended to do a wholesale conversion of business areas into all residential or almost all residential, leaving only a token amount of business. That's not the way it was intended. What paved the way metaphorically for it was your removal of the 2,500 square foot per lot, 2,500 square foot of space per unit that is typical of residential Arlington. If for something that's 90% residential, you don't have that, you're really just cramming people in. This is not a good mix. One minor point before I forget it, a jump on your plans. If you look at the plans for the upper floors, if you look at the center apartment fronting Mass Ave, there is no stove. So I'd like to see your plans include a stove. Minor comment, digression. With regard to this building, I agree with all the people who say you really ought to expand the business use to include the entire first floor. That's what was envisioned. Right now you've only got 1,300 square feet and however you split it, that's not enough. And you're shoehorning in three other units. Part of the problem with Arlington businesses and why we have so much space is because too many of the units are holes in the wall. They're not big enough. And you're proposing two more units that are also not big enough and also have a high likelihood of failing. You need larger spaces and I will cite as examples of successful businesses that have lasted. Punjab and Asitron, both restaurants which took the enormous risk of combining two spaces. Tango did the same thing. Unfortunately it just closed due to the pandemic, but the business model is there. I'm citing evidence to say you need larger spaces and I would like to see the board require the applicant to create more business space and larger sizes. Finally, somebody referred to it, your question of whether you can waive jurisdiction. I'm seeing a lot of hearings where applicants are really pushing the limits. Just because the ARB has jurisdiction to waive certain requirements does not mean that it has to do so. I think it needs to send a message to applicants who are complaining of financial difficulty or financial hardship that that is their issue. They need to make it work with their banks, with their financiers rather than pushing and continually pushing at the edges of Arlington zoning. Thank you very much. Barbara Thorning. Yes, thank you very much. I am sitting here getting a tremendous sense of deja vu. We are quibbling about a lot of details of this project and the project before and I understand that you have to hear all the quibbling and weigh it out and be good arbitrators for the community. But I'm remembering way back when the Seaport was first being developed, when Dick Carpenter had the rights to develop the property and it was going to go forward and Anthony Athenas, who ran Anthony's Pier 4 was part of the deal and Anthony got greedy and he said he started quibbling and he said, we want a little bit more. Blew up the project and it was 25 years before the city of Boston had an opportunity to develop that area again. And I don't want to see that happening to Arlington because I live in the area that we're talking about right now. I drive by that property two or three times a day. I really would like to see something developed personally. Four stories sounds a little low. I'd like to see five or six, but we won't go there. Please, let's just make it happen. And remember the context that we're in. We're in the context where the economy is about to dive and we're not going to have developers coming to us for much longer. So let's make good use of them while we've got them. Thank you. Thanks, Barbara. Steve Revillac. I'm really glad to see a proposal coming before the board that adds housing, particularly some small apartments that adds them on a major thoroughfare right next to a public transit stop. I'm also glad to see something that actually triggers our inclusionary zoning by law and will add to our subsidized housing inventory. I have one question if I may ask it through you, Mr. Chair. Earlier, Mr. Anise discussed the environmental conditions on the site, and I get the sense that the property owner is going to be on the hook for remediating them, regardless. So what I'm kind of curious about is if this project were not to go forward for any reason for any reason, what would be likely alternatives. Thank you. Bob, I can jump in here and answer the question. So, and this is very quick, but the way that anyone who's not familiar with these environmental issues is when it gets flagged, you cannot ignore it. You are forced to deal with it or you face fines and other issues so you can't just push it off if we don't get a project that works, you're forced to deal with them. The reason why we're here is because we are going to be required to take the building down and remove that material. And we have looked at all their types of asset classes that we could build here that would try and make some financial sense, and this is the only thing that even squeaks through the finish line to be able to do something here. Otherwise, we essentially would have to wait until something else happens that we can redevelop the site even, you know, whenever that may be. So, that's the ground essentially. Yeah, you face fines and other issues like that. Thank you, Steve. Thank you, John. Any other members of the public wish to speak on this matter. Pam, go ahead. Hi, it's Pam. I'm Executive Director of the Housing Corporation of Arlington. I also live at one Gilboa Road. I'm also a town meeting member. I want to bring up a couple of points. First, to refute the fact that these are such tiny units in our wait list, which is about 400 households at this point. Our major demand is for one and two bedroom units. So the one bedrooms make all the sense in the world, particularly right on Mass App in front of a bus stop. I mean, it's perfect for people who are either young and just starting out and just want a small space or even for couples or singles who are downsizing. So I think that's a really smart move there. I was wondering, no one said how tall the building was. If it's less than 60 feet tall, I think that's what they need. Why couldn't they do a fifth floor? The building next to it is certainly significantly higher than that. And even if it's only a partial story that would give them a couple of additional units up on the upper level, they would have a magnificent view and could be great spaces. And could also have a frontage that if you allow that to be open space, that would be that could satisfy that piece as well. I think this is a great deal. I think it's wonderful that they're adding the affordable housing piece to it. We definitely need that as you all know. And I just we are very supportive of this as a proposal and we hope it moves forward. Thank you. Thanks, Pam. Is there anyone else who wishes to speak at the public comment? We'll continue to accept that via email post those with the agenda. Part of the record. Bob, I'm going to go to you. I know there are no. Sorry, sorry to interrupt. I think Joanne is waving her hand. Go ahead, Joanne. I didn't see your hand. I'm sorry. That's all right. I'm sorry. I didn't use the, the other device. I just want to remind people that at last spring's town meeting, the chair of the finance committee said, the greatest problem in Arlington is the very low ratio of commercial property to residential. Give us your name and address, please. Just for the record. We know who you are. We need it for the record. Thank you. Thank you. Next in. 42 mystic lake drive. Town meeting member precinct nine. Member of the board of the Arlington housing authority. Thank you. Go ahead. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. The finance committee got up and said the greatest problem in Arlington from his perspective, especially in terms of the tax rate, which has been going up so high that people have to leave their homes. Was that the very low ratio of commercial property to residential. Some residential and some commercial. And it just doesn't do that. And I think that a lot of people are in need of housing because they can't afford the taxes. So I think that that has to be a very important consideration. I've even known people to move in to the Arlington housing authority because they could no longer pay the taxes on their small condominiums. And they went through all their savings. So I think this should be part of the picture and, and I, I really do not support having such a very small commercial space that as people have said, it's very hard to rent out that we need the whole first floor. If it's going to be a truly mixed use building. Thank you. Thanks. Okay. Unless there's anyone else that wants to speak, I'm going to turn to Bob. I'm not saying Bob, you've heard some of the concerns here. How long. I think we need to take this back to with your team and address those either in the affirmative or in the negative. The meeting that you continued for the hotel was continued to what date, August 17. John, what do you think? Well, I think Jenny mentioned there's a meeting at the end of July, another meeting in July. That's easily that's July. 20. That's only two weeks away. That's fine for the things that we need to address. Is that enough time, John? Yes. All right. Got to rely on my team. Okay. Well, you can do. All right. So unless there's anything else from the board, I think we're going to take a motion to continue this hearing to July 20, 2020 at 7pm. Thank you all for your patience, your input and your responsiveness. Bob, if there's anything you need from the department, or if you think it would be wise to meet with kin again and upon the meeting, I think we're going to take a motion to continue this hearing. I think we're going to continue to July 20. Thank you all for your patience, your input and your responsiveness. Bob, if there's anything you need from the department, or if you think it would be wise to meet with kin again and possibly Rachel, please feel free to do so. I think that is a wise, productive way of going about things. And I think we saw the results of it tonight. You can get all the way there, but we saw some good results. Thank you very much for your time. Thank you. Thank you all. That concludes the public hearing portion of our meeting this evening. It's 1020. This is as late as we've gone in a while. Just has to happen. Next up on our agenda is the Thorndike plays comprehensive permit. I'm going to turn this over to Jenny in a minute. We are going to go on through this. This is not a public comment, public hearing portion for tonight. This is not anything necessarily for us to vote on, but I'll turn it over to Jenny to give us the rundown of what's happening with this project. This is a 40 B project, which does not lie within the purview of the ARB. Although we are certainly asked to make comments and apply it on things from time to time. Those are not binding. I think most of you were not on the board in 2016. And so may not have participated in the process that we went through last time. So for those purposes, I'll just explain what we're looking for, which is the comprehensive permit is reviewed and approved by the zoning board of appeals. My charge is to collect comment letters from various boards and commissions, including the redevelopment board and different departments who are reviewing the proposal because it is going back to resume the hearing on July 14. The deadline that we've set internally for getting comments is actually July 7 so timing wise. I'm looking to actually update the comment letter that we sent back in 2016 and send it on to the zoning board of appeals so that they have it in time for their hearing, essentially next week. So I am glad to answer questions about the permit process, but it is a 40 B. It does reside with the with the ZBA. It's not coming to the redevelopment board for any sort of review or approval. This is really just simply to weigh in, provide any feedback. You can kind of get a sense of the type of feedback that was provided in 2016 based upon the letter that I provided in the packet. I would be glad to take any sort of updated information from board members. Of course, many of you weren't participating in that letter so you might have very different perspectives. The ZBA is actually they've at the town rather has retained a consultant to do additional reviews through the beta group. Those reviews include stormwater wetlands delineation floodplain delineation design review, and then also traffic and engineering review so it is a fairly comprehensive third party review that we're going to be conducting. And they will also be going to the conservation commission eventually to pick up that hearing as well. But I guess I'll just pause and see what questions people have about the project or if you want to talk about the letter or how you just sort of want to want to handle this conversation. I know that it is late and we have other agenda items. So I want to be respectful of that as well. Go ahead, Gene. I thought it was a really nice letter from a few years ago. I just had one thought about it. I think it's interesting that in our inclusionary bylaw, the 15% of units that are rental have to be for people at 70% of AMI, but for 40B it's 80% of AMI. And I know we made some other recommendations in the letter about income ladders for the place, but I wondered if it made sense to also put in that 15% of the units, the first 15% of the 25% that are going to be affordable should be at 70% AMI, not 80% AMI. Because that's, you know, it doesn't, I think it might actually be sort of winnable on that issue. And it's not a lot of difference, but it sort of does respect that our bylaw does slightly better than 40B on where to set the income limit. That's it. Are you, could I just clarify something, Gene, are you asking to amend the, so in the letter that we wrote in 2016, I think you're looking at sort of the section four, when we talked about affordable housing. Do you want to amend that to talk a little bit more specifically about for a by giving a little bit more detail or are you suggesting that we encourage them to go lower. I think we should encourage them to go lower and specifically say, you know, in, in Arlington, it would be 70% AMI, and therefore it makes sense to at least do that for 15% of the units. Yeah, that's all. Okay, thank you. I'll just, I'll just say from a, you know, we made a couple of recommendations for things that we wanted the ZBA to ask for from a design perspective. It's very institutional looking currently. And again, I don't know what the design review process is with the consultant. But I think that there's a lot of opportunity still for improvement here. So, I'm happy to provide some specific feedback, or if, again, that's really being held by the consultant, and we don't have a lot of opportunity to provide input, then I will hold on those comments. It would be helpful if you based on what we wrote last time, if you think that there are certain things that we can amend more specific guidance that you would like to provide. If it's okay with Andrew and others, I would suggest that you draft something and send it to me because I'm not obviously we're not approving as an exact letter this evening I'm going to have to write something as a follow up to this. So, I, if it's okay Andrew, could we have board members individually submit any updated changes or suggestions that they would for things they would like to add. Yep, I'm okay with that. So, Rachel, if you want to think about suggestions for making it a little less institutional or other areas for improvement, it would be helpful to get a sense of what those might be. And that's feedback that we can also provide to the third party consultant but I think it's still useful to provide specific guidance. I can get that to you tomorrow morning because you, that's, that's your, when you need to send it. I'm going to start turning it over. Yeah, tomorrow. Got it. Thank you. Hey Jenny, can I ask you a quick, broader question on this. Okay. They go a 40 B, because we don't have enough affordable housing in Arlington. What is the criteria. We have to meet so they cannot so no other developer can do 40 B in Arlington. Well, there's different ways to meet the 10% or 40 B under general law 40 B, you either meet it through the 10%, which in our case we're at about 5.2 or 3% right now, and it has to be 10%. We would need hundreds of units in order to achieve 10%. That's one way. The other way is through the general land area minimum, which is what we, we were looking to do through the 1.5% of the land area that's devoted to housing. And we, that was part of the original denial by the zoning board of appeals in 2016, which then was went to the state through an appeal, a whole process, which was then appealed the decision. And then unfortunately delivered back to the town that we still have not met that 1.5%. So that's why the hearing is now resumed. So either we can meet the requirement through 10% or through the general land area minimum nut. There's not another community in the Commonwealth that's achieved 1.5% yet. But it's, if we did, it would be by adding to the affordable housing inventory and the land area with the affordable housing on it. This, so that's the reason why it's resuming and hearing is happening and because we have not achieved, we have not met the state law requiring 40 B. Okay, thank you, Jenny. You're welcome. So I was pretty happy with the transportation related section of this letter. I think the one other thing I might suggest is it would be nice if they could comply with our new bike parking. Yeah. We talked about bikes, but we didn't have it. Right. Which would make a big difference in such a large development. Yeah, and so close to a wife. Yeah. Yep. Okay, I can, I can, I can probably add us a new subsection. I think that makes sense. That's, that's fine with me. Okay. I think I have all I need at this point in time. So I will draft something. I'll send it to all of you for as a notice that I, it'll be submitted to Christian Klein from who's the chair of the ZBA. And I'm happy to report back at any point in time if you have questions about the hearing or anything of that nature or would like other updates. I just wanted to bring this back to you to get an updated letter back to the zoning board of appeals. Thank you. Thanks, Jenny. All right, moving on. Unless there's any objection, I am going to pass on the Woodamore Park update till our next meeting July 20th. All right, Jenny. Yes, yes. I have Ali Carter was participating. I think at this point we have decided we're going to move that to July 20th. We, the landscape architect will join us at that time. Good. I'm also going to continue the director's update and the meeting minutes. I'm bouncing around a little bit here. I apologize. I do have to do the appointment for the housing planning implementation committee. So Jenny lead us through the woman who has applied. She was with us earlier. I don't think she is anymore. I don't blame her. But Jenny, go ahead. I don't know if she's not on anymore. Let me see. One second.  I thought she was still on. Well, we have. Okay. She's not there anymore. Okay. The applicants resume is in the package. I'm glad to give an update about her if needed, but I was hoping to introduce her to you. We can also have her come back next time. If that makes you feel more comfortable, but we have. We have a number of openings on the housing plan implementation committee. I think we only had that one applicant at the time. So we've interviewed her and we think she would be a good fit on the committee. We also recently lost another person on that committee who resigned who had been with the committee actually since it was the housing plan advisory committee. So she actually helped us to create the housing production plan and unfortunately she has now left. I would like to really get another person appointed as soon as possible so that we can have a fuller committee. Are they meeting regularly during. They have had two meetings. We didn't have a meeting last week, but we intend to have another meeting in August. Okay. I suppose we could have her come back July 20th.  She has an impressive resume. And anyone who's willing to serve on that committee, I guess. Should be thanked for their volunteer. She's not one of the normal faces we see around town. She's someone new. And I appreciate new input and new ideas on things. So, I guess I'll defer to the rest of the board with whether you would like to appoint her this evening or have her come back July 20th. I'm okay ruling on the papers so to speak. That's, that's where I am. I would, I would agree. I think that her resume is, it's excellent. And she certainly has had a series of experiences that I think will serve her well on the committee. Good. So either, would either one of you like to move to a point. Her name escapes me the moment. Michelle Michelle short sleeve. Michelle short sleeve. Yeah. All right, so someone please move to a point. Short sleeve to the housing planning implementation committee. We have Rachel's motion. We have a second from me, David. Gene. Yes. Hi, Rachel. Yes. David. Yes. I vote yes. Congratulations, Michelle. I look forward to hearing from you soon. In absentia. Okay. Thank you. So thanks, Jenny. So we're skipping. As I said, we're tabling the director's update. We will table meeting minutes, tackle those at the next hearing and move to open forum. Thank you. Thank you. And I'll be brief. Please be respectful. I will call on you. I will be slightly looser with the three minute rule as we've made it through the two public hearings this evening. Please use the raise hand feature so that I can see what you'd like to speak.  Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Don Seltzer Irving street.  I've been very candid with this board about my background and the specific mathematical tools that I've been using. I have never disputed the shadow studies provided by our experts. I have refrained from pointing out to her experts that deciduous trees do not have leaves in late December or even by the spring equinox as shown in their expert analysis. Instead, I've tried to supplement these studies with useful information that these limited analyses do not convey, rather than simply show what homes might be affected. I also want to provide the board with the more useful metrics of exactly how many hours of sunlight will be lost to these homes and how many months of the year that these conditions will last. If the applicant disputes any of my numbers, I urge him to consult his experts to double check them. Thank you. Thank you, Don. Anyone else wish to speak during open forum? Seeing none, we'll take a motion to adjourn. So, motion? Second. Motion from Ken, second from Rachel. All right, done. See you all on July 20th. Thank you all for your patience. I vote yes on the motion. Gene? Yes. Ken? Yes. Rachel? Yes. David? Yes. Oh, yes. I jumped the gun. Ah, all right. Appreciate it. All of you, and we'll talk on July 20th. Thank you so much. Thank you. There was a, there was a, like, sorry, may I, there was like an announcement. Go ahead. No, by you. Yes, there is an announcement. I have already individually said this to the members of the board. I was going to sit on it since it's so late tonight. For family reasons during the pandemic, I have tendered my resignation from the board. Effective at the end of the summer. I've been very pleased to be here. I've been very happy to be here today. I've been, I've been spoken with Jenny and. Adam about this last week. It has been very rewarding and a pleasure to be on the board for the last several years. I did not come to this decision lightly, but the way. Things have gone in the last several months. My own personal circumstances require it. So. I will still be around to some degree. But we'll miss all of you in these meetings. at least through August, depending on when my replacement is chosen. So, you know, still have to live with me until then. But- Thank you, Andrew. Thank you all to all the members of the board, all the members I've served with in the past, to Jenny, especially, to Carol Kowalski, and to Adam Chaptelaine, and to the members of the select board as well. It's been a very good experience, and I've enjoyed it, and I will miss it. Thanks, Andrew. We'll all bring a drink to our last Zoom meeting and toast you at that time. Wish you the best of luck. Andrew. Thank you. Thank you, Andrew. You'll be very missed. Thank you. All right, with that, we can end the night and re-adjure. Thank you all. Thanks for your patience. Goodnight. Goodnight.


Hi, I'm Zor. Welcome to Inizor Education. I would like to solve a problem which I consider to be a general problem related to Ohm's law and now before the problems which we were solving even the tricky ones actually had certain logical consideration, I would say which prompt us to make the solution actually quite easy. This one is not easy but very much straightforward because this is a universal approach to how to calculate the circuits which I'm going to present you, which does not have any kind of a symmetry. Now this lecture is part of the course called Physics 14 presented in Unizor.com. There is a prerequisite course called Math for Teens on the same website, which I consider to be a mandatory as a pre-course. Okay, so let's just solve this particular problem. Now we have a circuit. So plus and minus here it branches into 2, r and 3r. r is some kind of a number, so this is three times as more resistant than this one. Here I have 3r and r and here I have 2r and we are connected back to this. So there is no symmetry here, which we were using in a very kind of a similarly looking problem before. So we need some more general approach and that's exactly what I'm going to explain right now. How to approach any kind of a circuit which doesn't really have inherent symmetry in it. Now the first thing which you should do, you should put some errors which basically define direction of electrical current. Well, in general, you know that this is plus, this is minus. Electrons are going from negative to positive, but the electric current by definition goes in an opposite direction and don't ask why, it's just by definition people determine that before they knew about electrons. So this is arrow which is supposed to be this way and this is arrow supposed to be this way. So electrical current goes this way, here it splits into two, so it's reasonable to put arrows in this direction. Now at the exit it goes this way obviously and this way and this way. Now here we really don't know which one is stronger. I mean we can guess, but it doesn't really matter what the reality is. What I'm suggesting you is to put any kind of a direction and then we will actually use this particular direction depending on we will go along or against it. And for instance, here and here and here and here, that's our directions. So basically what I'm saying is that these errors can be really any, whatever you want in any direction because what is important is how you take the currents which are going along these lines in into consideration into equations which you will have to create. Now first you have to consider all connections like this one, this is the connection, this is the connection, this is the connection, this is the connection, this and this. Now once you put all the errors you can always consider every connection as some electrical current going in it and some going out. For instance, this particular thing, we have one connection going into this. You can consider this vertex of the graph using the mathematical terminology. So into this vertex connection you have one current which goes in and two different currents which are going out. So this is I current, this is I1, this is I2. Well, this is also I1 obviously and this is also I2. Now this would be let's say I3, this would be I4, I4 and this would be I5, I5. So what you can say about this particular connection that certain amount of electricity coming in and certain amount of electricity coming out and therefore you can consider as a first equation this one. Now let's consider this particular vertex or not or whatever you want to call it. You have one connection coming in and two connections coming out. So I1 equals to I3 plus I4. I3 goes down, out from the node from the vertex and I4 goes out but I1 goes in. Here we have I3 goes in and I2 goes in and I5 goes out. So we can have I2 plus I3 equals I5. Next this, so it's 1, 2, 3, 4. So the fourth equation is I4, I5 goes in and this is by the way it's the same I as here, right? This is like a one giant resistor so it goes, whatever goes in should go out back into this. So this is I, this is I4 plus I5. So that's about currents. So every node can be converted into equation of this type. By the way how many unknowns do we have? We have one and five we have six unknowns. This is only four equations for six unknowns, not enough. Let's go further. Further is that whenever you're going through any kind of a circuit on every resistor you have certain loss of the voltage. It's called voltage drop if you remember. So for instance we go this way along this particular circuit.  And that's it. So the sum of these two voltage drops should be equal to initial voltage between the terminals of the battery. So if this is you, the voltage, then you can say that I1 times r plus I4 times 3r. So it's 3i, this is I1, 3I4r is equal to you. So this is where the voltage drops by I1 times r. This is voltage drops by I4 times 3r. And the sum of these two should be equal to voltage between these two points, which is the same as between these two points, right? They're connected, so it's you. But we can consider another circuit, for instance this one. So here we have I2 times 3r. Here we have I5 times r. And the sum of these two voltage drops should also be equal to you. Well, we have two more equations, right? Well, we can have more. We might have more equations than we have unknowns. Okay, let's consider this circuit. From here we go up and then down and then to the right and go this way. This is another way the electrons are going, right? Which means in every particular resistor they lose certain amount of voltage, the voltage drops. And eventually whenever we go from here to here, it drops by I1r, I1 times r. Then from here to here it's I3 times 2r, 2I3r. And then from here we go to I5r. And this is also you. Now we can go a different way. We can go from here, here, here, here and here. I'm sorry. It was a spam. So we go from here to here. It's also the circuit. So let's consider what here will have some kind of a voltage drop. Here we have I2 times 3r. So it's 3I2r. Here we have I3 times 2r. But, and this is very important. Remember, we were putting this arrow in this particular way. We don't really know how the electricity is really going through. What kind of electrons flow will be. But we have put it this way and we counted this as something which goes out from this node for instance, right? Now we go against, so we have to put it with a minus sign. So it's a minus 2I3r. And then plus I4, 3I4r. And it's also equal to you. So we have more equations than we have unknowns. So we have what, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 equations. Which means what? Well, it means that our equations are somehow linearly dependent. However, just what's very important is they are linear equations. They are simple linear equations. Which means this system can be resolved in a straight way just substitution. First, you can substitute, let's say, I5 with I minus I4. Put it into all other 7 equations. So you will have 7 equations with 7 variables. Then you can find I4 from others and do that, etc., etc. This is a straightforward substitution method. It's long in this case because we have 8 equations, so it's long. And I actually spent a certain amount of time and put in writing all these steps, how you solve these equations. And I put it in the notes for this lecture. So I do recommend you to read the notes. And there is a complete set of equations which basically solve this problem. I would rather suggest you to do it yourself and see if you will have exactly the same answer as I did. In any case, my point was that any kind of a circuit, however complex it is, it can be solved as far as the currents and resistance of the entire thing.  So all kinds of problems like this. After you put all these equations, well, first you put the errors. And again, it's absolutely up to you. You don't really have to put it like this. You can put it any way you want, as long as, whenever you are going along the circuits to calculate voltage drop, if you go along the arrow, you should do the plus. If you go against the arrow, like in this particular case, against this arrow, use the minus. That's a very, very simple thing, right? So as long as you do it correctly, you will have as many equations as necessary, and you will be able to calculate everything about this particular circuit. And that was actually my very important point about problems related to Ohm's law. By the way, I didn't specify it as the problems number three. Okay, in any case, so it's very important to understand that there is a general principle how to solve the problems of that kind, how to basically make all the calculations for the circuit. You have resistors and the voltage in the very, very beginning. Then you can calculate all the currents and all the voltage drops and resistance of the entire circuit, etc. And this is the way how you do it. Okay, let me just repeat. Errors number one, every vertex or a node in and out gives you these equations and every circuit gives you drop of the voltage. Now, by the way, there are some other circuits. You can consider this circuit, for instance. The voltage of this circuit is supposed to be drop of voltage, supposed to be equals to zero, right? If you start from this point, then you go along this, you go along this, and it gains this. And it's supposed to basically give you the right solution. Whatever you have, in which case the whole circuit will be at zero as a result, will be i times r plus i3 to r minus i2 to 3r. And it's supposed to be equal to zero because there is no difference in potential, right? There is no extra battery like in this case. So all kinds of loops you can make in the circuit are good enough. And again, you will have a lot of duplicates, a lot of, I would say, linearly dependent equations. But that's okay, I mean. So it will be eliminated in the process of solution. Alright, so try to solve it yourself in this particular schema. For this circuit, go to the website Unizor.com to this lecture and see if you will have exactly the same results as I did. I spent a lot of time actually to solve these equations and they made a lot of errors because all this arithmetic is really kind of cumbersome.  I do suggest you to try it yourself. So thanks very much and good luck.


Today on the breakfast, a high level of electronic combat readiness is apt to win the fight against same security, external aggression and other threats to national peace with the brewing attacks across the country. Also on the breakfast, the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN and the Bankers Committee have enjoined traders in cross-strait state among orders to embrace e-nirer and other electronic payment channels in the system. And don't forget, we'll also be looking through today's newspapers, analysing the biggest stories of the day. Welcome to the breakfast and plus TV Africa, it's beautiful Wednesday morning and it's good to know that you have joined us, trust you had a fantastic night whereas probably on your way to work and in traffic and what have you, we ask that you stay with us and the lineup is quite interesting, just so you know, my name is Messi Ebupo. Good morning. We set off with the conversation that's making the rounds in different parts, whether it be in Lagos, but of course there's stories in Lagos, but I don't think that it will be limited to Lagos because the person in question is very popular. So you talk about the social media influencer and what have you, you can't limit the spectacular story, you know, to Lagos, but the entire, the crux of the matter has to do with cyber bullying and what the law says and the fact that, you know, an influencer, it's involved in all of this. So a quick one to all that has happened is that the federal high court sitting in Lagos yesterday granted bail to social media influencer, I told you before, Blessing Okoro, she's also been known as Blessing CEO for the alleged cyber bullying. Now the Nigerian police force had a rain Okoro who, Blessing Okoro, who's popularly known as Blessing CEO before the Justice Yelim Bogoro of the federal high court on six-count bordering on alleged cyber bullying, Liebel for existing, exhibiting on censored movie, that's basically it. The Council for Blessing filed that particular bail application before Justice Tijani Ringham of the federal high court in Lagos on her behalf. However, the court had granted Blessing CEO bail in absence of opposition. Regarding bail condition, the police urged the court to use its discretion. I'd like to say how discretion. So in all of this, that the court decided to use a discretion was that she was admitted to 10 million dollar bail each with two shorties in like some, so you're going to have two shorties in like some 10 million dollar and what have you bought reports say that she's going to be, you know, there, she's going to be remanded up until May. Now, let's even get to the crux of the conversation. Don't forget that this is actually still in court. And so the subject is, I mean, you can't begin to talk about the merits of this conversation. So you don't preempt the court or, you know, preempt what will happen. The police persecutor, have I ever said that in all of this, these are some of the issues why she was arrested, arraigned and, of course, bail has been granted. It's that in a piece of proof of information which was filed before the court, he stated that the blessing of lucky she lives in Lagos apparently. On October 16, 2022, intentionally sent messages using her Instagram handle at official Blessing CEO to bully and threaten and harass one. Flasher Day Samuel, also known as Mama Jazz, a younger sister to the late bimbo Obona, right? So the police also accused the blogger of using her Instagram handle at official Blessing CEO to harm the reputation of Flasher Day Samuel among orders and the late bimbo by exposing them to hatred, contempt and ridicule. Accusing also, she was also accused of exhibiting a film and a video work title, sweet and sour, without the censorship and certificate, without holding a license which was supposed to be issued by the National Film and Video Sensors Board. So, however, the prosecutor for that identified some of the messages the blogger had sent, you know, to this persons. Let's ask Mama Jazz where her father is. If you follow this particular story, you would understand it's the IVD story, okay? So I remember, I saw this, where is her father? Your father had the same issue with the mother, he belated and ran away, you know, for his dear life. IVD's crime was that he was not man enough to run away. The family of late bimbo is after IVD's properties and life. I want you to know that if you follow the bimbo story, we can't bring you to speed, but if you have followed the story, this was some of the response, especially her elder sister, Mama Jazz bimbo, IVD is well known in Lagos and it's not a hidden fact that even in your estate, bimbo is violent.  From childhood, evidence is loading, all the voice notes and evidence will be on your YouTube and Facebook, you know, subscribe, she wrote all of this. I will ask Mama, you know, Mama Jazz, the late bimbo sister, a few questions. Where is Sieg in your, you talked about the terms of your sister, she died, are you owing your late sister 18 million, did she block you before she died? Do you even like your sister's children? Answer this question because, oh no, I'm feeling very depressed and tired, you know, trying to read all of this this morning, but I'll cut it off. If you follow the story where Blessing CEO and IVD was very permanent, certain bimbo had died following a report that, you know, she was in a domestic or abusive relationship.  What's the correlation between Blessing and IVD and bimbo that had died? I mean, how can you just wake up and just be involved in another man's story, basically? So, but the police actually told the court that the offense, that the defendant and the accused, we need to look at that, committed, was in contradiction to Section 24, Subsection 2A and Subsection 1 of the Cyber Crime Act, Prohibition and Prevention Act of 2015, and Section 375 of the Criminal Court Act, that also reported, there was also a report that it also contravened Section 33 of the Film Act, that's the NFVC BD Act of 2000 and for where she put out a movie without getting the license and so on. But so, this is my take on this particular issue because I mean, I probably have to put out this one here. I think that we have lost our humanity as a people, right? We literally have lost that. Now, I'm trying to ask myself, Blessing CEO, the IVD story, bimbo, what's the correlation? Why are you in another man's business so much? I mean, what exactly is it? Are you the attorney? Are you the defense counsel? How could you be so involved in putting out statement when you have someone who has died? You can't even, it's a lot of pain to grapple with and so just imagine that you have someone who's lost a loved one and then these are some of the statements that you begin to put out at what point? What's the correlation? What's the connection? How can you be so involved? But then maybe we live in a climate where we haven't really paid attention to the loss that we have but you also need to understand that there are laws and rules that govern our behavior as the people and we can't continue to act erratic and discriminately. We can't continue to act without the fact that understanding that we're humans and what have you. So I have seen different conversations following CEO, Blessing CEO because she's quite influential. I mean, she has a presence on social media and that's why it's the talk in different parts of the social media space with her action. But I say whatever's going on, we need to take a breather and always understand that we're dealing with human beings at every point in time. We also need to take a breather, understand that these persons are humans and you can't just go all out. Someone has lost a loved one, that's a mother, that's a sister, that's also a friend. She could be anyone. I mean, we're not just limiting, I'm not limiting this particular story to being born out. I'm saying that when someone lose a loved one, you have someone who's died. I think it's just important that you just be there and be sensitive to some extent. So I think what's actually lacking for Blessing CEO will actually happen because some people think that she's having a taste of her own medicine and whatever she's getting right now should be commensurate to the pain that she has caused members of the family. I just think that in the course of always doing our jobs, being influencers and being whatever it is that we have to be as a people, we also cannot take out the fact that we're dealing with human beings. We can't remove that other aspect of us. We're human first of all before any other stuff and then you have to begin to think about what your actions would be. I mean, the comments that you're making, how would you leave the other party? These people are mourning and just going ahead to say all of these things. Do you leave with them? Do you have the facts? Do you know what actually transpired? How so do you have so much information about the situation? These are some of the concerns that a lot of Nigerians have raised, but we need to move away from that quickly because next on the top trending, what a lot of Nigerians are talking about on social media and off social media spaces, the fact that there's been an unfortunate incident with kidnap of school children in Kaduna, the State Police Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Arouan confirmed that in a statement, the students of government secondary school, our one day secondary school to be precise were kidnapped. That was on Monday and today's Wednesday, so we're looking at three days or two days from now that we're kidnapped and the State Commissioner for Internal Security and Homeland Affairs had also confirmed that statement of the students who were kidnapped and the entire social media space is on talking about this. The Commissioner explained that they didn't really state the exact location where this incident had taken place, but of course, it also agreed to the fact that yes, there was a kidnap, but details and reports are saying that these students were taken away abruptly, it's very unfortunate. We know how we have grappled with a studio of students who just went to school and you ask yourself what exactly is the crime in going to school and just while they were in school, they were taken and they were kidnapped and a lot has actually happened with them. So yes, it's pretty unfortunate. It's so saddening and we're having this report shortly after the elections because it felt like everything has doused down. We seem to have been in control of all of the issues that are going on, but that's not the case. Well, that's the much we can take this morning on our top trending. We take a quick break. When we return, we'll be looking at the front pages of the National Dailies. Please stay with us. Good morning.
