Alrighty, let's wash his in full first. Look at the corgi rig in there. It's cute. Cool. All right. Dance off. And then get out. All right. So my question to you because right now I let me check check the mail and I didn't see anything else in terms of what's going on. Right now, basically I'm seeing this. I think we are a bit too high. There's a lot of room down here where I think we can bring this you might as well center. I don't think we need that much room down here because as we continue it's almost like this is a nicer composition in terms of where the where the angle is and looking down or you can still have this centered But then at the same time do we have to I mean to me I like this just because it introduces some diagonals if he sits there and we can go even bit lower-ish in terms of looking down not with this pole aligned here, but just something where not that everything always has to be in the third so it's my awesome drawing here, but imagine You know, he's somewhere sitting here He's fairly centered, but it just gives me too much room here It's a big focus to me. I feel like with that and it's very symmetrical But I don't think we need in terms of the story you want to tell Even just within the shot So I don't know personally I would probably keep it like this. Where is he sitting? He's sitting behind the corgi. So if he if he is here in however form Doing his thing. I think that would be totally fine, too The bigger question that I have was you were asking about the zoom. I think Apart from the composition at the beginning, I think there's some good old handhelds It gives us a sense of we're in there writing, but the thing is it's not moving So to me, I would reduce that wobble quite a bit and keep it fairly static Comes out and then watch out. It's a bit of a hard stop into the rotation It's a bit of a double thing of you're translating And it feels like you're stopping a translate and the rotates at different times We'll write the rotation at the very end. It feels like your translate stops sooner. Could be wrong. That's how it feels maybe And then we have this here Moving out my biggest question That I had was what is going on. I'm not sure what's going on So we have also why is he here? Like there's no payoff for the dog. He's so cute. There could be something but right now He's there And then it seems like he's laughing at something, but I don't know what it is Then he freaks out and I don't know why And then he's angry. He's going through a couple of emotions here Shoots out here and it seems like he's going to use that's cool his hands To break through that That's cool Got to roll into this Clean pose watch out little tangent there But then it seems like Okay, now he's celebrating. So what happened? I don't understand what happened. Um When he comes out here, did he defeat someone? Did he scare someone away? He could totally dance But then he does that and then he realizes. Oh wait, I'm missing My guy, but he's looking down and not here So I'm not sure if he is actually thinking about this as it's leaving. So watch out for eye line And then he starts going but the thing is if his Comes check because he uses he uses that to jump but the thing is This is where he wants to go.  It's just like a thing to help him get higher But still visually he goes towards where he wants to go. That's my only confusion was right now even here He shoots Straight at us. Watch out for the silhouette. It kind of works But it just this feels like it's going to shoot straight at me. Isn't doesn't want to go this way So I'm confused again what he's doing and then He finally gets to this and is being pulled By the metro here and I feel like that could be a bigger thing of Wow, see then my mind goes, okay, if he shoots this at what point does he hit the thing? So that Has to go in front of this pole And it's being pulled, but then it feels like the speed of this See that we're catching up here. We're not as fast as this. So how is he being pulled so quickly? So you're gonna have to speed this up a lot more You're gonna find the right timing so that the the spider web imagine it's it's behind this That when he comes forward that it we don't feel or think that while the web is going to Is about to hit this here and he's going to have to go this way I don't know. There's lots of things that I'm slightly confused about You might have told me but I was checking the mails and I don't see anything explained there, but Probably use the error on my end. So apologize if I missed something right now I'm not seeing it But if you could remind me and if not elaborate on what you're trying to do like what are the story points I can help you a bit more Um, and that is that. All right. Thanks All right, there's an email you can sign up you can start whenever you want You can submit whatever you want you get 16 submissions either way a like and subscribe would be awesome. All right. Thank you


Next question, this is J-2005, you were probably 1 year old, 2 year old, 3 year old, 15 plus 18 year old, what can you do, 17 is over, I finished class 12, I was in class 1 when I was 5 year old. Finished by the time I was 17, but now they don't take entry before you are 6 year old, so you get more time to study. Listen, question, question, question, a whistling train approaches a junction. You have seen the real station, the real one, but you travel by flight only. Where is the last time you have seen the train? Last year. There it is. So whistling train approaches a junction and observer standing at the junction observes the frequency 2.2 kHz, 1.8 kHz. A whistling train approaches a junction and observer standing at junction observes the frequency to be 2.2 kHz and 1.8 kHz of approaching and receding train. The speed of the train, how much? Speed of sound is 300. Speed of train is what? So is it around 1 by 10 is the speed of sound? 30. So is it 30 meters? Yeah, 30 meters. Half way in 30? 30. I am not going to solve this. 30 meter per second. Okay. Got it? Okay. Next question. Right? Yeah. Again. A 20 centimeter long string. This is J2009. So what was the answer? 30. 20 centimeter long string, having a mass of 1 gram. It is fixed at both the ends. It is fixed at both the ends. Tension in the string is given as 0.5 meter. The string is set into vibrations with a frequency of 100 Hz. You need to find the separation between the successive nodes in centimeters. How much? Route 5. No. It is an integer. 5. Both ends are fixed. Frequency is given. Separation between successive nodes is how much? In terms of wavelength. Lambda by 2. You find out the wavelength. You find out the wavelength. Frequency is given. So frequency is velocity of wave divided by wavelength. The wavelength is velocity divided by frequency. Velocity is root over T by mu divided by the frequency. And answer is lambda by 2. See we tend to reuse what we have just learned. We forget the basics. The distance between the two nodes is lambda by 2 and frequency is v by lambda. Simply if you find n and then who is asking you what is n? Mu is m by l. m is 10 is power minus 3 kgs. That divided by 0.2. Sir we can't do this. I can do it. It will take a lot of time. You are fine. But nobody is asking you what is... How about harmonic it is? Do you understand that? It is 10. Unnecessary we are finding n. It is 10. It is 10. Next question. A sinusoidal wave which is generated in a string is given by this equation. y is equal to 2 mm sin of minus 100 pi t plus pi pi 3. This is the wave equation. You need to find out time. You need to find out time when the particle at x is equal to 4 m. When particle at x is equal to 4 m first passes through the mean position. They are doing SHM only. All the particles find out time. It will take for that particle to reach the mean position. Where is the mean position? y is equal to 0. Where the particle is? 1 by 300 is correct. 0 not at pi. Yeah. Okay, let's see. At t equal to 0 and at x equal to 4, what is the location of the particle? y is equal to 2 mm sin of at x equal to 4 it will be 8 pi t equal to 0. This is gone plus pi by 3. This is adding 2 and pi will not make any difference sin of pi by 3 only. At t equal to 0, right? When at x equal to 0 and t equal to 0 it is here. Now at what time the y will become 0? I have unnecessarily written this. This is the location of the particle at any time t at x equal to 4. It will be 8 pi minus 100 pi t plus pi by 3. This is the location at any time t at x equal to 4. Equal to 2 into 10 is power minus 3 sin of pi by 3 minus 100 pi t. I have to find out t for which y becomes 0. So when t increases, pi by 3 is going down. So first it will become 0 and then it will become something else as t increases. So first instance will be when this phase becomes 0 that is pi by 3 minus 100 pi t. When this becomes 0 y will be 0 or t will be 1 by 300 seconds. We will take one more question for today. Let us take this j drawn to drawn in 14. One end of the string of length 3 meter is fixed at x equal to 0. At x equal to 0 one end of the string of length 3 meter is fixed. Actually both of the ends are fixed. One end is at x equal to 0. The speed of the wave velocity of the wave is 100 meter per second. No wait only one end is fixed. I will read exactly the way the question is. One end of the string of length 3 meter along x axis is fixed at x equal to 0. The speed of the waves in the string is 100 meter per second. The other end of the string is vibrating. In the direction so that stationary waves are set up in the string. The possible wave form of these stationary waves are all the four options I have to write. In the angles the function is same cos and sin. There is just a standard wave set up. So which of these four equations have given you a hint already actually. Sir I got it. It is option E. Multi options are correct. Why did you think like this? E works. Why? Plus 5 minus 2. Plus 5 minus 2. Mark it. As a velocity of sound is given as 100 meter per second velocity of the wave. Does all the equations satisfy the velocity of wave to be 100? No. See what is the equation of the standing wave? Standing wave 2A sin of kx cos of... This is what it is. The coefficient of t divided by cos is 100 for the first one. 5 by 6. 50 pi by 3 divided by pi by 6 is 100. So velocity is 100 here. In fact all four velocities are 100. So you cannot look at the velocity and pick the options. Omega by k for all the four options is 100. Rather than selecting you need to eliminate which one doesn't work. What else can you say about the standing wave here? There has to be... At x equal to 0 there should be node or not. If you put x equal to 0 it should become 0. AB 0 or AB all are become 0. Fine. Even that doesn't work. x equal to 3 is what? Node or anti-node? Anti-node. Anti-node. Right? So this doesn't work. But A, C and D are correct.


In this part of the course, we will work on understanding how to make a good experiment. Now that we've seen that just observing is not quite enough, we are in the business of dirtying our hands and getting involved in the real world. We will look how experiments work and why they help us identify causal relationships. Let us quickly look back at why we thought observation was not quite enough. If we want to see a specific causal relationship, observation alone is not quite enough because there are many, many alternative explanations and unwanted influences that we cannot disentangle from what we are truly interested in. In a way, it's like trying to count the hair on the torso of a certain bee while she's crawling around in a bee hive with lots of other bees. There's so much going on, it's pretty much impossible to get it right. You have no control over the situation, which makes it hard to answer your question. Instead, we want to create a controlled environment. That means isolate the bee, zoom in on the thing that we're interested in, the hair on her torso. The same idea applies to experiments. We try to gain experimental control over the situation by eliminating all distractions so we can study exactly the thing that we're interested in. Let's say we want to test if a new medication we have invented in our home laboratory helps against myopia. We have developed a carrot-based pill that we think cures people who currently have to wear glasses because they're short-sighted. Our speculation is that if you take this pill for 14 consecutive days, your vision will be restored to 100%. How would we test if our new medication works? Our first step would be to find a number of people who will take this medication for 14 days. That's how long we think it takes for the medication to work. We would make them promise to take the pill every day. Since we want to study myopia, it makes sense to give the pill only to people who are myopic. After all, we want to cure this condition, and if someone doesn't have it, we couldn't cure it. So far, that pretty much sounds like the woolly head observational study we had planned in the last video. So where does the experiment come in? The important part is that we want to make sure that our pill is the cause for restored eyesight. So we need to make sure that we can exclude alternative explanations. We want to make sure that a 14-day period in which someone is participating in a medical study alone does not lead to improved eyesight. We want to make sure that spontaneous improvements of eyesight are accounted for. And that's why we need a control group. And control group is a second group of participants or other subjects in our experiment which we observe under conditions that do not differ from those in the experimental group one bit. In our study, we would measure the eyesight of the experimental and control group at the same moments in the study. We would ask the people the same questions and we would treat them the exact same way in every other regard too. In our experiment, we would also want to make sure that the act of giving our participants a pill is not the reason why their eyesight has improved. For this reason, we would give participants in the control group the exact same number of pills as in the experimental group and give them the same information about it. The only difference would be that the pill in the control group would be a placebo. That means it would be a pill that contains no active ingredients whatsoever. It doesn't actually do anything at all. This way, we can be sure that our pill is effective above and beyond the effect of ingesting a pseudopill and thinking it might help you see better. Hooray! This is a basic experiment. The basic feature of an experiment is that it deliberately contrasts different observations. In our case, there's one control group and one experimental group. There could also be circumstances in which there are several experimental groups, such as when you want to try out which dosage of our carrot pill is the most efficient. But for now, working with this simple design suffices for our purposes. Now it's your turn. Practice designing an experiment. Revisit your item from the previous video. How can you make an experiment to test your speculation? In my case, I wanted to know if loose versus snugly fitting woolly hats keep people warmer. So how would I make my basic experiment? I would want two groups of people. A loose hat group and a snug hat group. Each member of the loose hat group is asked to wear a loose hat. And they all are the exact same model. And they're made of the same fabric in the same knitting style as the loose hat. Identical, except for the fit. Then I ask everyone to stand in a wind tunnel blowing at a certain speed with a room temperature set to, let's say, 5 degrees Celsius. I'd ask them to report how warm they felt in this room before putting on the hat. And then they put on their own clothes. I'd ask them to report how warm they felt in this room before putting on the hat. And then they put on the hat and stand in the room for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, I ask again, how warm do you feel? The difference in the warmth between the loose hat group and the snug hat group is what I need to know to address my hypothesis. So far, so good. But you may remember that we were wondering how hair would influence finding out which hat works the best. This brings us to another consideration. We want to make sure that the conditions in our experiment are identical between groups. That also means that we should make sure that disturbances to the causal relationship we want to study are identical between groups. In the case of the woolly hat, that might mean we want to keep constant how much hair our participants have. Maybe it would be best to only study bald men. By only studying a narrow type of participants, this also means we should ask ourselves if our conclusions can be generalized beyond that group to the general public. We will come back to this point in the next module of this course. There are a number of other factors we would try to keep constant, such as the gender and age of the participants in both groups. Identical twins would basically be our ideal test participants. But we can't run all of our experiments just with identical twins, right? So are there other things we can do if we can't control everything? There are two tools that can help us with this problem. We can try to assure that disturbances, if there are any, occur in all groups to a similar extent. We can do that by studying a large number of people or other subjects. In our hat example, if we study lots of people, we can be pretty sure that all kinds of hairstyles will come up as we go along. We could also record which hairstyles our participants have and use statistical tools to control for the effect of different hairstyles, so this doesn't cloud our effect of interest. Moreover, we can randomly assign our subjects to the groups investigated. That means chance decides if someone is in the one or the other group. In our example with the carot pill or the placebo pill, which group of pill takers you would be assigned to could be determined by a coin toss. If you get heads, you'll take the carot pill. If you get tails, the placebo pill. This brings us to another important issue. Neither the participants in our carot pill study nor the administrators who interact with the participants should know who takes the carot pill and who takes the placebo pill. Why? Because if participants knew they were taking the placebo, its effect would be meaningless because participants would no longer believe that the pill could help and might therefore respond differently to our experiment. If the research staff knew who was taking which pill, they might treat the two groups differently, even without wanting to do so, which may cause them to have different reactions. Therefore, in our experiment, both the research staff administering the pills and interacting with the participants, and the participants themselves should be blind to which group in the experiment, or we also call these groups conditions, so to which condition they have been assigned. We called this type of procedure double-blind. A quick side note on working with human subjects. Participants would of course have to be informed beforehand about this procedure to make sure that they are okay with the potential of only receiving the placebo pill instead of the carrot pill. Finally, we would also want to make sure that our participants take the carrot pills or the placebo pills. This type of control is called manipulation check. We make sure that our intervention, our manipulation was successful. In this example, this means making sure that everyone took their pills. There are several ways of doing this. You might ask participants to report if they missed a pill. Oh, they might be reluctant to admit that, fearing negative consequences, such as being judged by the researchers administering the study. You might require participants to come to the lab to take the pill while you watch them. And you could then check their mouth to make sure that they aren't hiding the pill and make them stay in the lab for two hours until the pill actually has been digested. Or you could measure the blood levels of pill-specific indicators that would suggest that the pill indeed has been taken. There are a number of ways to do this, but the idea is that you want to make sure that your manipulation was successful and that not finding the effect you're after is not because the manipulation didn't work. All in all, now we have a list of things we want to keep in mind when designing our experiment. Let's put it to work. Revisit your item from the previous video. How can you improve the experiment you just designed to test your speculation? In my case, I would study only bald men, as we've discussed already, sample a lot of them and randomly assign them to the snug versus loose hat conditions. Keeping the researcher administrating the study blind will not work unfortunately because they can see the hats that they distribute. We could use different researchers for the different conditions and not inform them about the other condition. Now that might be a solution. And we could not tell participants about the other hat condition until after the experiment for the same reason. Finally, in terms of the manipulation check, we would need to make sure that the participants put the hat on properly. The researchers administrating the study could be in charge of doing that to make sure that the hat is positioned in the right way. Finally, let's quickly go back to the identical twins case. We said it would be ideal to invite identical twins as human participants because they're very similar in many regards. Another way to go about this is to study the same participant in both conditions.  And we can sometimes take advantage of this. In the example of the woolly hat, we would make sure that the same subject first wears one hat, then let them acclimatize back to their original body temperature and then wear the second hat. To make sure that the order of which hat was worn first does not affect our results, we would randomly choose for each participant which hat they wear first. There's a procedure is appealing because you don't need to find as many participants. And at the same time, it can be problematic because it might be harder to keep participants blind to your hypothesis. So let's sum up. In this part of the course, we have seen how to make an experiment. We have seen what experimental and control groups are and why it's important to keep disturbances constant between them. We have also looked at ways how that goal can be accomplished. In the next part of the course, we will see if we can spot bad experiments and improve them. We will also discuss more generally how to deal with shaky insight we might get from experiments.


Hello, welcome to today's RTA webinar recording in collaboration with Queensland Building and Construction Commission and what you need to know about pool safety in rental properties. My name is Lyn from the communication and education team of the RTA. Today we will be looking at Queensland Tenancy Law and how it relates to pool safety. Our guest speaker will look at pool safety laws and certificates, compliance and key information for landlord and tenants and regarding their responsibilities and also where to get more helpful information on today's topic. Please note the RTA cannot provide legal advice and you are encouraged to seek your own independent advice to make informed decisions. The RTA is pleased to be working with QVCC and today's guest speaker is Sue Crozier. Sue is a senior investigator with the compliance and enforcement section of QVCC and has a wealth of knowledge for all things pool safety. So on behalf of the RTA and the rental sector watching today, Sue, thank you for joining us. Thanks, Lyn. It's great to be here. So before I hand over to Sue to go through today's presentation, I'm just going to quickly touch on the tenancy laws and how it relates to pool safety. So the residential tenancies and roomy accommodation act outlines the rights and responsibilities for everyone involved in the tenancy. So for property owners, one of their obligations is going to ensure that the rental property is in good repair, fit to live in, and not in breach of any health or safety laws at the start of the tenancy. Also during the tenancy, they must continue to maintain the property by doing the repairs and general maintenance. It's not uncommon to also see special terms in a tenancy agreement on who's responsible for what with the day-to-day operation of a pool. And remember, as always, with any special terms, ensure that they do not contradict the tenancy legislation. That also allows for the manager or the owner or a tradesperson to enter to comply with the compliance and maintenance of the rental property. So the tenant must be given 24 hours notice for the entry and the tenants have obligations to ensure they don't do damage and also report any maintenance issues to their property manager or the owner. The weather's warming up and with that comes the blow-up or the portable pools for the backyard. There are compliance requirements for these and our guest speaker today is going to talk more about that during her presentation. So on that note, so I'm going to hand over to Sue from QBCC to provide really helpful information for both property owners, property managers and tenants. Thanks Lynn. So in relation to the commencement of the pool safety laws, they came out in 2010. There was a graduated introduction process which finalized in 2015. The graduated introduction process was based around what the classification of the building was. So in other words, whether it was a Class 3, which is a shared accommodation property or whether it was a single residential property, which is a Class 1. And of course, whether the property was rented or sold or had an owner occupation status. There are approximately 400,000 pools in Queensland at the moment. And of course, as Lynn alluded to, the weather's warming up and so we hope we're going to be using our swimming pools for cooling off, relaxing and maybe getting that bit of extra exercise. Unfortunately though, swimming pools can be a real danger to small children and that's why these laws were introduced. Definitely though, supervision of young children and teaching them to swim is certainly one of the safest aspect of protecting small children. But essentially, this is why the rules have come about because young children who are unsupervised do get into pool areas and of course do or can get themselves into great difficulty. The Queensland Building Construction Commission is responsible for regulating and licensing of the pool safety inspectors. Local governments, on the other hand, have wide-ranging authority to enter the properties, inspect barriers and they can take enforcement action against non-compliant barriers if they're found. In relation to the actual requirement for pool safety certificates, it's important to understand that there are two categories of pools. That is the non-shared and the shared. Shared pools, sorry, non-shared pools means that the pool is only used by the occupants of the home associated with the pool. And shared, a shared pool is a pool used by residents of a unit complex or similar. Owners of rental properties need to have the pool barrier inspected and a certificate issued. Timing depends on whether the property is a shared pool or a non-shared pool and I'll cover that information in our next slides. Inspection of barriers is undertaken by pool safety inspectors who are licensed by the QBCC. You can check the currency for pool safety certificate on the QBCC pool register. And as I mentioned earlier, it's important to know that the local government authority have wide ranging powers to enter properties and they can inspect barriers and take action if there's no certificate for that property. In relation to leasing of non-shared pools, there are different requirements for the shared and non-shared in terms of when the certificates are required, but ultimately they're both required to be inspected and have a certificate issued. For the lease of a non-shared pool, a certificate must be obtained before the lease is signed. There's no alternative. There's no there's no ifs or buts about that. It must be that the certificate is obtained before the lease is signed. If no certificate were in place at the time of the lease being signed for a non-shared pool, owners can be and are penalized for an amount of over $2,000. And also if a property manager is found to have commenced a lease without a certificate in place, the property manager may have disciplinary action commenced against them under the Property Occupations Act. QBCC does perform validation checks against the pool safety register and assessment of bond payments to determine when leases have commenced. That's how we can determine who is non-compliant or compliant in terms of when the lease has commenced. So, Sue, you somewhat in just summarizing for our audience for the terminology, the non-shared pools are usually your freestanding houses and the shared pools are usually those for like your unit and apartment and townhouse complexes. Exactly, Lynn. That's correct, yeah. So, for leasing of a shared pool, and that is where the property, as Lynn alluded to, is shared. So, the pool is used by other residents of that property. So, in other words, a unit complex managed by a body corporate is a great example. Now, so there's a lease can commence without there being a pool safety certificate, but only if the owner of the pool has given a form 36. Form 36 is a notice of no pool safety certificate and that form needs to be given to the incoming tenant, body corporate, and also to QBCC to notify that in fact there is no pool safety certificate there. Now, the issuing of the form 36 gives the body corporate the additional time of 90 days in which to obtain a pool safety certificate, but the body corporate should always maintain that the barrier is compliant, whether there is a certificate in place or not. The QBCC has issued several impringent notices for people that have found to have not issued a form 36 when they should have. In regard to compliance, one of the QBCC's roles is licensing and disciplining the pool safety inspectors. As you can see on the slide, there's been over 42 inspectors who've been disciplined this year alone and we do have a pool safety inspector search tool and we encourage homeowners and property managers to interrogate that tool so that they can find out the details of the pool safety inspector and some history about any disciplinary action if it has occurred. Just in terms of the allegations that may be made against the pool safety inspector, one of the most common that QBCC finds is that there's been a certificate issued when the pool in fact was not compliant and of course that is a big problem and that is certainly one of the key aspects of my role as a senior investigator with the pool safety unit of QBCC. And as I mentioned earlier, local governments also have a very important role in terms of inspecting barriers and they have authority to actually enter properties and inspect if there's suspicion that the pool is dangerous. QBCC has a lot of pool safety information available on its website. One of the most recent things that we've developed is this property managers checklist and although it's entitled a property managers checklist, it is applicable for use with homeowners and in fact anyone who really wants to get more information and use the checklist as a guide about how to maintain and manage that their own pool is safe. It's also even useful for tenants for that matter. It covers what you need to tell your tenants about their responsibility including their legal responsibilities and not doing anything to the pool barrier which would render it to be non-compliant and that includes putting things like child play equipment, pot plants, parking a car too close to the pool barrier, things like that which can all become quite a dangerous situation and allow a small child to climb up and over the barrier. So I understand like pool safety is very important so whether you're the owner or a tenant. So one of the questions I've heard many times over the years is why aren't the canals or the creeks and dams near houses and other overalls, why aren't they not fenced? Yeah Lynn that's a good question and it's a common question that we're faced with at QBCC. Look the legislation is primarily about protecting the children who are associated with the residential property. So in other words the pool is a part of a residential property and that is why the pool itself needs to be fenced in association with that residential property. It's obviously just simply not possible to in the regional areas for example to fence along creeks and even along some of our waterways. An example here in Brisbane if I can just use Brisbane as an example the South Bank waterway there that there's no residential accommodation associated with that particular waterways. Therefore there's no requirement for that to be fenced. It's not to say it's not dangerous but the legislation is that there's no requirement for that to be fenced because it's not associated with the residential property. And you mentioned before like I mean the importance of particularly the children that's actually renting in the properties whether they can swim or not swim. Yeah do you have any statistics or anything you can share with our audience about like any deaths that's actually occurring or the importance of why we do have these barriers in place? Unfortunately Lynn I do and QBCC and obviously local governments have to deal with the unfortunate circumstances of children and immersion incidents as a result of the child getting into the pool barrier. Look unfortunately pool safety or children drowning in pools is one of the leading causes of death for children under five years of age in Queensland and I would imagine that would be a very similar statistic throughout the whole of Australia. And also in relation to those deaths it's really important to recognise also that there are seven really tragic incidences or near misses that also occur as a result of a child getting into the barrier getting into the pool area. And when I say near misses I mean children getting into that barrier getting into the pool and unfortunately being submerged for too long and they may become or sustain a brain injury which of course isn't an absolute tragedy. So you've also mentioned QBCC licences the pool safety inspectors and so your website actually has a list of all the inspectors or what does a person do to go find a pool safety inspector? So Lynn we do have on the QBCC website you can just type in a request LRA search function for pool safety inspectors and that will bring up an entire list of all of the inspectors within the particular local council regions that you nominate. If you select on a particular pool safety inspector it will also give you some of the contact details and also some of the disciplinary history if that has if you're looking for that sort of information. But it's an important tool because it provides the information about where to actually contact the pool safety inspectors because at times sometimes you recognise that you actually need a pool safety inspector quicker than what perhaps you had originally planned so it's a good tool have available. In terms of actually does your pool barrier comply? We suggest that whether you're managing the property yourself or whether you've got a property manager engaged we recommend that you do a regular routine check of the barrier as frequently as you attend the property. And some of the points that are shown here on this slide are some of the items that we suggest that you look for. Often we find that barbecues, pot plants, children's play equipment as I mentioned earlier even cars are parked too close to the barrier and that that provides then a climbing point which a child can use to access into the barrier. So all items need to be a minimum of 900 millimetres away from the barrier on the outside and also 300 millimetres away from the inside. And that those measurements are legislated and the common sense practice there is so that a child can't reach to get into or onto an item which would allow them to climb onto the barrier and of course get into the barrier. The heights of the barriers have to be a minimum of 1200 whether it's the fence, the gate or in fact even the ballastrade area which may be on on a balcony which is overhanging the pool area. That's a good one to think about because a lot of people don't realise that and don't give that any consideration but it can certainly be a danger and it certainly is a requirement. Also check for gaps underneath the barrier. A lot of times we have found that loose pebbles or garden mulch are considered to be acceptable. I can tell you here and now that they're not because I've certainly recognised that small children can easily scrape away that those pebbles or mulch and get access into that pool area and of course do themselves significant injury. Also check that there's a CPR resuscitation sign visible from the pool enclosure and able to be read easily. CPR sign is absolutely useless if it is not able to be read easily and you know in an emergency situation that sign can be an absolute lifesaver so please ensure that it is absolutely visible and easily read. Look for signs that the gate may be being propped open. That's unfortunately it's an all too common circumstance whereby people may be getting the lawnmower out or allowing their dog to use that pool area or whatever if there's a brick or a rock or something like that placed up against that gate or even if there's an ocky strap or a small piece of rope or something. Those things are indications that someone might be regularly leaving that gate in a fully open position and that is absolutely not compliant and a high risk for little children to get into that pool area. Anyone found leaving the gate open, propping the gate open, tying the gate back and maybe penalised up to $20,000 and for a corporation that fine increases by about five times. So it is a very significant fine because it is a very very significant and dangerous thing allowing little children in through the gate. We suggest that you do regular checking of the gate hinges and the gate lock while you're there put a little bit of oil or CRC or one of those sorts of lubricant products on the gate hinges and on the latch because it encourages that that gate to be maintained a good condition and hopefully prevent those hinges and latches from failing. This little video that we've got here is just a demonstration of how to test the gate and it's very short and we recommend that you just open the gate just a few centimetres, release the gate and see how it comes back. In this particular video it's locking nice and securely and also you will hear in real life you will actually hear that that lock is actually engaging and it's secure. Give a little pull on that gate when you're on the outside give a little pull on that gate make sure that it is actually permanently and secure okay. We suggest doing that little pull because little children love to stand on the bottom rail of those gates or barriers and if their weight is on that gate it could be pulling that gate down a little bit and that may be sufficient to release the lock so give it a little pull make sure that you test it. If you find that that gate is not latching correctly please don't delay in making arrangements to get your maintenance person or actually get that thing repaired because gates are the primary cause or gate failures are the primary cause of little children getting into those pool areas and of course getting themselves into great difficulty. So what are the steps to take if the pool barrier is not compliant or there's problems like this with the gate and things like that and no one's fixing it or you know that there's some problems there. Okay so if it's the gate and I'll touch on some other issues in a moment but if it's the gate look by all means secure the gate closed use your use your tie if you're a man take your tie off and tie the damn tie around the gate to make sure that it's secure because the last thing you want is of course children getting in there but so secure the gate in a fully closed position that obviously means that no one can get in there until such time as it is repaired and as I said don't delay in getting that repair done. You can put up small protective areas of perhaps acrylic sheeting or something similar to that screwed on to cover up any gaps whether barrier might have broken palings perhaps or there might be a gap under the fence you can just secure shielding of some sort on the outside importantly on the outside to prevent kids getting in there so there are a range of things that can be done and there's no nothing to stop you doing that okay because you're actually protecting getting little preventing little children getting in there in there if it's case lin of where you've identified that there is a more significant problem and that is that you've got perhaps got a concern that the barrier was inspected previously and there may and there may be for example another pool safety inspector who's come along and they've decided that no it's not compliant now you can raise a formal complaint with QBCC if that is the case if it's and you're most welcome to do that and I as a senior investigator will most likely be the person to receive that complaint and I'll certainly deal with it looking at all of the evidence and determining exactly what has gone on if on the other hand you've got a significant issue that you feel that someone has damaged the fence or damaged the gate by all means you can contact local government and make arrangements for a local government compliance officer to come out and inspect and they can make a decision about what has gone on with that particular fence does that answer your question lin so with some of these pool gates some of them are going a bit high tech yeah some have like a keypad access to the gate instead of your standard pull-up latch that you've just showed in this video is that okay or you know or is there certain rules that that keypad access has to be it yeah lin look it's a good question new raise um so with the keypads what I what I believe you're talking about is perhaps say a body corporate situation or a resort or something like that whereby they're trying to the owners are trying to actually prevent people that unauthorized people gaining access to the pool so with a keypad or even a swipe card situation they are acceptable is as long as the actual height of that keypad or swipe card pad is at a minimum of 1500 above the ground level that's the general ruling um there are more technical details which of course we don't have time to go into but in general yes make sure that those keypads or swipe pads are 1500 millimeters above the ground level interestingly on that point though lin there's also a lot more technical details about pool safety because we're only talking here about outdoor pools but hey what about indoor pools they're a whole nother kettle of fish but they do need to uh also be uh inspected and have certificates good question lin so moving now on to tenant responsibilities as I've said the responsibility for clients for compliance with pool safety laws rests with the owner of the pool okay so if a tenant provides a pool and we all experience that around christmas time hey it's a great idea to get a little uh portable pool for the little ones to have a paddle paddle in but look please do consider that it may well be putting those little children in danger so if the tenant provides the pool it is their responsibility to register that pool with the qbcc and most importantly to maintain a safe barrier around that pool this again the significant penalties if a person is found to have a non-compliant barrier even for this little tiny uh portable pool so there are uh minimum depths or maximum depths that are are required in terms of deciding or determining whether it is actually a swimming pool and um often the pools that hold more than 300 millimeters in depth of water so one foot level of water means generally speaking that it is a swimming pool and it will be required to have a barrier remembering also that local government authorities do have powers to enter a property so if someone makes a complaint to local government they can local government can well enter a property determine whether that is a non-compliant pool uh and whether there's a non-compliant pool barrier and there will be enforcement action taken so i know i've heard from many property managers and owners that they've turned up for an inspection at a rental property and found that the tenant has propped up in the pool gate with a popland or a chair so you've mentioned before like you know can't do that so what actually happens in that situation what would the owner need to do yeah so the owner needs to take first and foremost um needs to take action to immediately rectify that situation so it's the owner's property and i would suggest that the owner would have every right you can correct me if i'm wrong here lin but if it's a safety issue um they should be able to remove that thing which is um opening that or leaving that gate prop propped open they should also report the event to the local government because as i said local government do have the right and will come and inspect and um in some situations they will find um the the the person who's willfully interfered with that particular barrier so um it is a very very serious matter and there are certainly very serious penalties for that and of course the most serious penalty or the most serious event or outcome is that a little child unfortunately gets into that pool and um and is found um in in the water so you've mentioned about portable pools so there's a you know someone's gone to the local big w or department store or a pool shop and purchased what it's like a portable pool or blow up pool for holiday time and not realizing that potential consequences or what's really required so you've really mentioned that they're going to have to like register the pool put a barrier up um what else do they need to do yeah so look you've covered most things here it is a case of registering the pool yes putting a compliant barrier up um and of course with a compliant barrier they have it's not determined compliant until such time as the certificate is issued so there is a fair bit involved and the home or sorry the tenants need to be aware of that it's not as simple as just going to kmart or woollies getting this little portable pool because in fact it's not compliant and um and they may find themselves um uh you know in in very dire circumstances not only through the injury of their own child perhaps um but but having received very very significant fines um so what about spas that's one thing we haven't touched on so far what about the spas out there yeah thanks lin um yeah look spas are certainly um considered or some spas are certainly considered to be a a swimming pool the again you know there there's a there's a raft of legislation behind a classification of what a particular what a spar is and the definition of a swimming pool which we don't have time to go into we're really not here to go into the that level of detail in i'm sure you appreciate that but in general yeah a spar is certainly a swimming pool and it does need to be um appropriately registered it does need to be fenced and certificates do need to be issued so we've covered a fair bit of information here but we've certainly limited it to to really what what we thought you would like to know but i'm sure there are many other questions and what i'd like to just in make sure that you're aware of is qbcc does have a lot more information available for homeowners tenants um and and property managers and even pool safety inspectors available on on the website um we're also here to provide um answers to some questions specific questions if you have got them we cannot give site specific advice though um even though i'm personally and well experienced and our team are well experienced um in providing advice and information we can't give site specific advice okay so the website address is up there about what you can how you can get further information from qbcc okay well thanks again soothe like this is really important information for everyone in the rental sector because obviously you know we're a warmer climate Queensland has so there's a good chance that there's rental properties out there with a pool or with a growing amount of like apartments with shared pools and things like that so the rta does highly recommend you download the checklist that sue provided up before and also to view the information on the qbcc website for all things of pool safety so just in finalizing today's presentation just make sure you understand your rights responsibilities under Queensland tenancy law and pool safety is important for both the property manager the property owner and the tenants and remember there are penalties applied for willfully interfering with a pool barrier so no propping open the gate with a pot plan because it's convenient um so again remember the penalties but also not even having the barriers up in the first place if you decide to put up one of those portable pools and download that checklist and safety booklet from the qbcc website so you can keep connected with the residential tenancies authority by subscribing to the rta news and you can also link with the rta on LinkedIn the rta is here to help you and everyone involved in the tenancy so we encourage you to be informed about your rights and obligations and view the rta's website at rta.qld.gov.au it's got a lot of information resources and forms and you can also log into the rta web services for all matters on bonds including your lodgements and refunds if you need further assistance please contact us on 1300 3 double 6 3 double 1 Monday to Friday 8 30 i am to 5 p.m so thank you to the team at qbcc for their collaboration in this recording and thank you for your time today Sue you're welcome Lynn great to be here thank you


Good morning everybody You can tell this is our new house behind me already. I'm in my office. I Have an office the thing is I need to catch up on my sleep a little bit because not only did we move and Unpacked though. We didn't move the heavy stuff. So that was it. It could have been worse We moved we also have a seven-month old Who were the first couple of nights in the new house here didn't want to sleep all the way through the night So now he's doing good already sleeps full like eight to ten hours every night like usual. He's a good baby but all of the The moving and unpacking we're not nearly done unpacking. I wanted to have everything unpacked before I even Did the host tour for you guys? But I don't think that's gonna happen It's gonna take weeks for us to unpack and Brits step mom is coming by next weekend I think and I think her mom her sister's coming down I don't know. She has some help so that when I'm on the road She has some help to get things put away and settled in because I'm not much helping that anyways Because all I do is I pick up a box and I go to her and I'm asking where does this go? Where does this go? Where does this go? Where do you want this? Where do you want this? Because for me, I really don't care where Where things go as long as they go in their proper place so she can decide I guess this is the biggest sneak peek you've gotten of the house yet I've been I've been trying to wait to do that host tour till we were fully settled in but that's not gonna happen I don't I can't wait that long to Show you guys where we're actually gonna see it in the background of all my vlogs anyways, right? So I wanted to do like a full one tour so you guys sort of get an idea of the layout of where my vlogs I guess the set the trucker Josh set I've been to other youtubers homes before and I feel like I'm on a set sometimes and it's just their home So I like to give you guys an idea of you know when I'm when I say I'm in my office You know, oh He's in his office You know beside the family family room over there in the playroom over there If I say we're in the playroom you sort of have an idea in your head of what I'm talking about It makes a little bit more sense in the vlogs. That's why I want to do a little little house tour Show you guys the backyard and stuff and where the dogs will be running around and so you get an idea of what's coming in the future So that video is still coming Probably either tomorrow or the next day. We'll see I'm still putting these together now. I'm still catching up with everything We don't have everything unpacked and it won't be all unpacked by the time I show you guys around but We'll get there right but in today's video This was us getting ready in the last couple days think we start off with two days to the move and then we end off with one day to the moon It's not much to show you but it sort of shows you where our minds were at and how we were just overwhelmed You'll see the amount of boxes just in the shop and in the house We had to get that all over here get that all packed up Britt did an amazing job with a lot of the packing too because she she does She wrapped everything to make sure it didn't break whereas when I pack things they seem to break I don't know I've moved too many times. I've moved too many times I know that when you move things break and things get damaged and a couple of our things did get damaged by the movers We were a little disappointed by that because we paid a lot of money for the stuff And we hired them to make to move it and not damage it, right? That's what my job is to I'm a truck driver when people hire me to move their stuff They're not only paying me to move their stuff. They're paying me to move it and not damage it So it's different when I damage my own stuff when I'm packing my own stuff That's my fault. It's my stuff I answered to me but when we hire other people like this it kind of upset us because we hire them we pay them and It was a simple move we didn't move very far from which crosstown and They still damaged some of our stuff. Maybe I'll show it to you in another vlog yet, but not bad Not too bad, but it's like still like come on But that's to be expected right when you when you move things get damaged and I've I know what that's Can't hold it against them. Just can't fix it now. So Sorry, what's done is done. So it'll be okay Anyways, let's get on with today's video hard even you haven't ever three minutes These are the last two days leading up to the move the next video will be the actual move after that. I'll see you then Kimmy's Good morning, everybody two more days when I'm filming this it's two more days, so We're moving on a Wednesday. I'm filming this on a Monday We've pretty much got the whole house packed up already. We've got the whole shop packed up for the most part It's still just like it was before but it's in boxes. So today's Assignment we've got to go to the shop and Move all of those boxes from the back to the front in front of the truck and then move old blue back So that everything is easy to grab because our movers are gonna come and grab everything from the house And then they're gonna go over to the shop and grab everything from the shop And I want everything to be right at the front and really easy for them to grab so it's as quick as possible But first we need to start the day off right and get ourselves some Timmy's We've packed up pretty much the whole kitchen already. So we're gonna be eating out for the next two days And that's fine Well, I'm just excited to get this all over with and done with It hasn't been that stressful like we've been planning this pretty well, but I'm just anxious to For everything to go smoothly, you know The big day is coming and it's gonna be here quick At home pretty much the only thing I really need to do is still I need to take down the Final little bit of the frame of our gazebo I take that down. It shouldn't take too long, but now that there's snow outside I wasn't expecting the snow to stick around looks like the snow is sticking around everything's gonna be all frozen together now It's gonna be a little bit harder to get apart. Oh Well We'll get the day started here and We'll focus on our one task for today, which is organize the shop and get everything to the front of the shop We also might have to get it all into sealed containers or boxes so that the movers will take it They won't take it unless if it's in a sealed box or sealed container I don't even know how big the movers truck is. I hope it's pretty big I hope it's not a tiny little van We're gonna need like a pretty big straight truck at least we got a lot of stuff. I Also rented a U-Haul trailer a 6x12 U-Haul trailer Just to pick up the odds and ends that didn't make it in there. Maybe we can't fit everything I have that trailer. I'm picking that up tomorrow And I have that for the rest of the week to finish up if I need to oh Yeah, oh Yeah That's gonna be delicious Can't wait to get home and eat it. I think we're ready We're gonna take this box back to the house. That's for our big TV living room Tell me to get that a little bit later right now I'm just here to get my winter gear because apparently winter is upon us and I wasn't quite prepared. I know it's Canadian It wasn't prepared Even Canadians are like what is going on when it snows like this before Halloween We got like a foot of snow on the ground at least snow drifts everywhere I've got to dig out this shop in the morning so that the movers can get in here There's a big snow drift out in front of Even I'm like, you know, I think it's a little bit over the top and a little crazy, but okay, so uh yesterday I know I'm skipping around on my days here But we're sort of summing up the whole process moving up towards the move or coming up to the move and sort of one video but We got all of our stuff from the back up to here. This is all going to the new house. Oh Blue is sitting back a little bit further than usual This is what we got back here for now and come back and organize this at some other point, but huge big pile of boxes is now finally Leaving the shop. So I'm just dropping by here right now. We're getting everything packed up when I'm filming this It's the day before the move the day before so I Am coming back later to get that box for the TV because that'll be one of the last things we pack Obviously, you need a TV right to the very end, right? That would be one of the first things we mount and put up at the new house because you need a TV right off the bat Right immediately immediately new TV Maybe that's just me but you get all this stuff out of here and Go from there it's getting exciting guys I know the vlogs are sort of like gonna be hopping all over the place I've been at home for several a few days now already. We've got most of everything packed I've been focusing on that Getting excited. What did I come here for now again? Yes, I need my winter boots because I wasn't expecting to need them yet So I need to get my winter shoes my winter boots I need to get a box for that tabletop baby dishwasher that we use for the baby dish with baby dishes There's something else that I came here for I Told my wife I would not forget that I did not need a list I Don't need a list winter shoes gloves winter gloves for me because I got to do a lot of shoveling I got to shovel out our whole yard now so that the movers can get to the house without you know Trudging through snow again. I wasn't expecting the snow. I'll figure it out. Yeah, I'll figure it out Yeah, it's a little update Campers in here.  I don't want them slipping and hurting themselves So the time has come for me to go pick up the u-haul trailer now that we're going to be using I just for the odds and ends anything that the movers can't take or won't take or if there's anything Like I said before I'd rather have the trailer and not need it then need it and not have it So I don't want any hiccups or anything slowing us down. I just want to get this move done We're here at our local u-haul dealer And ourselves all hooked up Got our trailer all connected locked on chains are on all the lights are working all around all the marker lights All the tires are filled with good good winter air It's good We've got Tennessee plates Shout out to my friends in Tennessee And there's our trailer that's all we need that's more than we need actually perfect I'm open the movers will take pretty much everything but like I said just in case Just in case. I don't want any hiccups. I don't want any problems So actually, you know, I think I'm gonna do this Walked in I think What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna put our outdoor furniture in this one because I don't want to put our outdoor furniture in the same Container or truck as all of our inside stuff with all our boxes So then it'll melt on the way because there's snow on it now the snow will melt off and then Get the boxes wet. So probably put everything that has snow on it and stuff in here We'll think of a plan think of a plan. We're all set now though Everything's about as ready As it'll ever be What do you think Frank? Are we ready? So the movers get here at 8 15 tomorrow morning. The time is now about 11 o'clock p.m. We just got everything organized Ready actually doesn't look that organized doesn't we have tomorrow morning yet to do the finishing touches We have the movers for four hours tomorrow So I guess from 8 15 to 12 15 or maybe they get here at 8 15, you know do introductions shake hands Sign stuff. Maybe Started 8 30 to 12 30. I don't know how this works. I've I've always moved myself. Well, that's a lie. I've always had my family help me move I appreciate that but I've moved a lot. I've moved many times since I moved out of my parents house I've moved nine times since I was 18. I moved out on my own. I got my own place and I was 18 and I was in 2006 So now it's 2023 and it's the ninth time I've moved since then And I want this to be the last time and My family has been there every single time to help me move without me even asking Even now I've hired movers to give them all a break so they don't have to come and help their brother or their son move again But even now My mom and dad are getting pretty antsy to help out They've I know they've been asking Here and there and different ways of how they can help and then they called us tonight and they just said flat out They want to help what can they do and we're trying to tell them. No, no, no We got it all taken care of you guys relax sit back All the heavy lifting is taken care of you guys don't have to do any moving for us But since we only have the movers for four hours We have all the stuff over in the shop and we have all the stuff here If for whatever reason they can't get it all done Well, then I'll need some help with some stuff It'll be the last little few things the lighter things not the big heavy things because this couch over here This is going in the basement of the new house We're gonna take this all apart We left it together because I don't know how to take it apart I'm gonna figure it out with the movers and their policy is if they take it apart They'll put it back together in the new house. So I thought that was a pretty good policy. I'm gonna Take them up on that offer This is all got to go down that into the basement of our new house And once you see the new house, you'll see Why I paid someone to do it for me I paid for it to be someone else's problem because the stairs go down And then a right angle and then down again. So it's like I don't know how they're gonna get that stuff down there, but I am paying for that not to be my problem I trust them. This is what they do for a living. This is their business I'm pretty sure that they'll be able to handle getting it downstairs. There's also the couch in the nursery We can't go in there right now. Theo's already sleeping Uh But uh, there's that couch in there. It's a height of bed. It's really heavy. That's got to go into the basement too We'll see what happens there Uh, I'm gonna move the tv myself I think every man understands that I have it packaged back there against the wall behind that table. I'll take care of that one myself That one I can get down the stairs. Oh, I'll figure that one out. We're just about there. So tomorrow's the big day Hope you guys tune in. I mean, I know you guys are probably here mostly for trucking stuff and that's mostly what I do But this is this is a big event in my life Uh, it's one of those big life events that's sort of pivotal to our future Our whole future changes after tomorrow when we get into a new Forever home that's actually big enough for us to breathe in And grow our family and be comfortable in so I hope you guys tune in and join us I'll put some good effort into it and hopefully it turns out well Uh, I know all of these vlogs leading up to uh leading up to the move has sort of been all over the place. We've been Very busy But uh Looking forward to it. So I'll see you tomorrow. So remember when you're out there Drive safe. See you tomorrow for the big day


It's The Cube. Here is your host, Jeff Frick. Jeff Frick here with The Cube. We are on the ground in Silicon Valley at the Santa Clara Convention Center at the Anita Board of Women of Vision Awards ceremony. Later tonight they're going to give out some great Women of Vision Awards. So we want to come down, meet some of the finalists, actually the winners, and also talk to some of the folks from Anita Board. So I'm really excited to have with me Lucille Mayer, CIO, client experience delivery at B&Y Mellon. Welcome. Thank you, Jeff. Happy to be here. Absolutely.  B&Y Mellon won the award for the vision. So congratulations. Thank you very much. Yes, it's very wonderful to be recognized as the top company for women in technology this year. We're in great company and really see this as an honor to be recognized in this way in the technology community. Yeah, that's great. So talk a little bit about some of the factors that went into the determination of the award. Well, as you know, you know, Anita Board uses a very metrics-based methodology to determine the firms that are recognized this way. Certainly, I'm proud to announce that 30% of our technology associates, and that's across 13,000 people worldwide, are women. 30% worldwide. So that's a tremendous, you know, go aspiration. How we've gotten there is a number of different programs. Certainly, we've leveraged a lot of the best practices that Anita Board has taught us, so that we have lean-in circles. We have a sponsorship program of which each one of our technology executive committee members personally sponsor a high-potential woman across the organization to help develop their careers. We also have an increased focus, certainly, on diversity recruitment. This year, our campus recruitment leadership executive training class has 64% women in it as well. Wow. And then the other piece, we've actually developed a job competency framework for all of the roles that we have in our technology organization, which clearly articulates the roles, the expectations of those roles, and the promotion criteria for those roles. That actually has done a lot to increase our job satisfaction across women and men to really, you know, articulate the expectations. It also creates a level playing field for promotions and advancements. So people honestly know what does it take to get ahead. And that's helped us in conjunction with a rigorous promotion process to actually leverage those criteria, measurements of success, and give everyone a level playing field to get ahead. So it's interesting. So leveraging some of the Anita Board best practices that were really originally developed for women, you've expanded that into diversity and you're also getting returns within the men that work there as well. That's correct. And I think to the point that we know, and certainly all the firms that are very involved in the Anita Board know that diversity is breeding more innovation, delivering more innovation delivers greater technology solutions for our clients, which are the center of everything we do at BMI Mellon. Right, right. And you said you've been in finance your whole career and at some company that eventually ended up getting purchased where you are today. Now, talk about how it's changed over the last number of years in terms of kind of inclusion and acceptance of women in the technology role in financial services. Well, like I said, I think that being an organization that's 13,000 strong, again, many of the associates that work in BMI Mellon have come through acquisitions from different cultures. There's certainly a harmonization of the culture and very much change is going on in the organization is about evidence based management. So truly being able to be a whatever you do your service provider of what you do and how do you identify the metrics of success in your service that you provide. And then you are evaluated versus that. Again, that's a way to give everyone a level playing field that everyone can be successful because they truly understand what it takes for them to be successful in the job that they're doing. That is a cultural shift that's really going on in BMI Mellon of us all as service providers serving others either internally or externally at our clients and really knowing what we have to do to help everyone be successful. It's interesting perspective. You often hear about internal departments being service providers to other departments in the company, but I don't think I've often heard really taking it down to the individual role being a service provider to the rest of the organization. That's pretty granular. Just think about how powerful that would be, Jeff, right? If we can met everybody to understand what is the value that they play in our organization. So it's not something that's just at the highest level. And if everyone takes that service level ownership and says, What do I have? Do I know every day what my clients expect of me and how well am I doing to perform those goals? Makes us an incredibly powerful organization. It's taking the strength of that 13,000 and having them go towards one goal. Right. So let's shift gears a little bit about and talk about tech. And I love that most companies today are tech companies, whether they know it or not, they just happen to have other services wrapped around that technology, whether it's Uber or financial institution. You guys have always been on the cutting edge of tech. But I think what's interesting about your title, I've never seen this client experience delivery, but it's come up in a number of places where we've been we're in banking and financial institutions. Most of the interactions are no longer at the branch. It's some electronic form. So talk about how that has changed in the banking industry and what why you've got a really senior position to execute on that. Well, I think it's important, I think, yes, to the point, the success of technology development and product development is all about changing the lens around to look in the needs of the client. And you're delivering to what they need, not necessarily what you have to sell. And the bottom line is, think about it, BMI Mellon actually services 76% of the Fortune 500 companies. So we're more of a B2B type model. So what's fuel truly understanding what market segments, what types of companies we're servicing, what do they need from us and making sure that we're delivering this in a very cohesive and easy to use way. However, they want to consume it, whether it's the more traditional browser type methods, mobile type methods, or electronic type methods, we have to make sure that we're meeting all those kinds of needs, and that each client almost gets almost it's almost like a bespoke experience, but we're delivering in a mass customizable way. Certainly we have a tremendous investment in innovation. We actually last year built out four different technology innovation centers, one here right in Palo Alto, and we'll be building a fifth one at the end of this month at the end of this year, I'm sorry, in London as well. And this is where we're actually reaching out and trying to say what is the latest things that are going on in technology, whether it's open source, whether it's the fintech, all these different startups that are bringing different services to bear. How do we embrace all that and take those technology advances and bring that to the benefit of our clients in scale for them. Right. That's interesting. We covered the opening of the Ford Innovation Center that they opened in Palo Alto, ironically, just down the street from Tesla. And we see a lot of that in automotive and Samsung has an innovation center here in Palo Alto. So that's interesting that you guys are doing that too. So we're almost out of time and I want to give you the last word and I think it's always a great question. What advice would you give to yourself 10 years ago, 20 years ago, or to young women or families who want to get into tech and maybe think, I don't know if it's a great career for women. What would you tell them? I think to the point, I think there's so many different opportunities and I don't think about it. I mean, certainly engineering is very valued, but there are many different diverse types of roles in technology today. I always love the idea of user experience experts, right? That's combining technology and psychology to make sure that you're delivering the most positive experience to the clients. So there's lots of different things you can do. The second piece is my advice to myself in the past is your career is going to go not in ways that you ever anticipated. You need to take risks of many chances and maybe do things that you hadn't anticipated, but I like to say getting ahead in your career is a series of different moves. Some of them a hierarchical, some of them a lateral. Having the wider view makes you a much more valuable associate to others in your organization, makes you much more value as a leader. So take all of those things that you didn't expect and just jump into them and go for it.  There's so many things I did that were different.  Love it. Jump in and just go for it. Yeah. Well, congratulations once again. Lucille Mayer, the winner of the top company here at the Anita Borg Women of Vision Awards. So congratulations to you. Congratulations to BNY Mellon. Thanks for stopping by. Thank you and we're very honored to accept tonight. I can't wait. Awesome. Jeff Rick here on the ground at the Anita Borg Women of Vision Awards in Santa Clara, California. Thanks for watching.


After weeks of playing through the impossible difficulty fan game Dragon Ball Z, Budokai Tenkai G4, I have finally made it to the end of the Dragon Ball Super Saga with the ultimate survival battle. This fan game has been absolutely insane, but also, I don't know, every match takes me 40 hours. This is the final fight, so I'm expecting this one to be the worst in terms of, you know, the difficulty. Oh, but we start with a sword minigame, so that is a dub for me. I'm gonna throw my wrist out doing this. Oh, we're opening up Perfected Ultra Instinct. No way. We haven't seen this in the mod yet. Milku's done it, hasn't he? Oh, you already know he's achieved it. Show me what I got. Yes, that's all I need to hear. No more talking. He's reached it. Ultra Instinct has been perfected. The fight starts now. Oh, he already talking the good stuff, too. The stage looking better and better every time we fight on it. I wasn't a fan of the first T.O.P. stage, but this one being destroyed, I like it a lot. Oh, huge opening. Oh, follow-ups. We've got Ultra Instinct combos as well. Oh, why are we just smacking them up like this? Godly display. Oh, he blocked it. No way he actually blocked Godly display in my perfected form.  I'm letting it go to yours. I spent a lot of help on that. Another teleport. Follow-up. I dropped it. Damn it. Oh, take another elbow then. I might have dropped the follow-up, but at least I got that teleport. I hate that they talk the whole time, though. Oh, sweep the leg. Combos. No shot. He's meditating. I meditate on this. Oh, he did. I always do that insult to Jiren, and then he simply just does meditate throughout. Oh, he got me with a grab. No way this does any more than 1,000 though. Exactly. He really tried it again. Oh, let him grab. Oh, damn, they gave me a cutscene for punishing that grab. What's he going to do all the way over there? Run away. Wow, 740 damage. I must have hit him with nothing. The key blast didn't even phase me. All right, Jiren. Go.  Full speed rush. Walk that.   The fans made this one for you, Jiren. Why don't you go ahead and take a seat for me? Freeze. Got him on camera. Huge damage, and we're ready for the next cutscene. Let me charge up just in case. Hey, Jiren, take one of these. Next. Bro is pissed. I threw a key blast at him. Wait, does Jiren have another form too? I'm not going to lie. Jiren looks like a deformed insect right now.  He's powering up. He might actually have another form. Oh, gosh. Damn, Bro is yelling. He's pissed. Jiren's power level just completely exploded. Good. Let his power level explode.  Hey, hold one of these. Oh, I miss. Damn it. Jiren, don't run. Jiren, don't run. Jiren, don't run. Damn, he is out of here.  We're both going to get disqualified. Jiren, please don't run. Power impact does that. You can't clash with power impact. That move is busted. Oh, I can't block that. Oh, I can't block that. Oh, I can't block that. Jiren. Oh, spin him around. Oh, multi kicks. No way. Another transformation. Full speed. I blocked that. Oh, oh, oh. Oh my God. Targeted attack. We all know what he was aiming for. Well, that didn't quite a grip of damage. I don't know if we're getting to embarrassed. He's kind of out right now. Come on, Goku. Yeah, there we go. We dug deep. You're wrong. Damn, he stood up enough.  Oh, he tapped into another strength he didn't even know he had for the sixth time. Oh, oh, I didn't know we were... Oh, I got a cutscene. Oh, best... Oh, I just cost all my health again. I'm different. Oh, nope. He keeps blocking this with the leg.  He blocked that. Block that. I can't... Why'd he back hit me and run away? Get back here.  I'm gonna let Jiren sit down. Oh, he came out of nowhere. Why does UI Goku have... Look at my armor while I'm just sitting here charging. Up near my... I thought I had armor. Damn it. Stop. Advanced movement analysis is cheating. Bro, he lasts forever. I can't hit him. Stop dodging my attacks. Oh, he took 370 damage. At least he didn't dodge it. Oh, I missed. All right. Finally, the beatdown on Jiren can continue. Weird. We're going through a lot of audio here. They're talking in the background. Oh, I had to get out of that. I had to dodge it. I had to go up. Jiren stopped. Don't even fight me like that. Jiren is very open to sweep the leg. Jiren gets his legs swept out from under. He blocked it that one time. Oh, who won that trade, though? Sweep the leg again. Let me hit him with a godly display real quick. Let me hit him with a godly display. How'd he dodge that? How'd he dodge that? Cutscene, save me. They will all be turned to dust, just like that rock. Bro, do not threaten my friends, man. He's gonna do the line. He's gonna do the line. I'm trying to hurt my friends. He's gonna do the line. Oh, another clash. And I got another coming out from Jiren. Oh, 3K. I'll take it. Godly display. I backfliped on him. You're mine, Jiren.  I love that move. Fan-made move, by the way. How did they do it? They did it again. All right. I just used all three bars of key for some insane move that just forced me to key charge slow. But Jiren's got to do the same thing, so I'm actually not pressed about it. All right, let's stop him. Oh, after mid-strike. That's what I spent all my money on, Jiren. You should have known. You should have known it would come to this. If this is all there is to this, this might be a bad final video. Jiren just can't seem to put up a fight. Another godly display. You thought the combo ended? Nah. It's just over, folks. Jiren does not have what it takes to keep up with UI Goku, and I'll prove it now. He's going to meditate through this. Damn it. No. He's not dead? Just die. Oh, look at him kneeling. Oh, I'm going to finish you right now. Watch this. Goku, do it. I wonder how they're going to animate this part. Is Goku just going to fall over dead? If he just T-poses dead, I'm going to laugh. Well, I mean, that's about what I expected they'd be able to do with the tech IT engine. Oh, damn. Bro, he's like Fortnite dead. He's out of it. Somebody gets to mend some minis.  He's going to take advantage of this. Yo, 17. Frieza, help me. What? That was... I feel like Jiren was kind of hitting on Goku there, but maybe that's just me.  Overkeeping. What? What is this move? Damn. Bro, Goku was already dead.  Frieza's here. Oh, you thought it was over. Yeah, Frieza's still here. Yeah. Oh, you thought it was sweet, huh? You thought it was sweet, Jiren. Okay, he's kind of nice. Sweep the leg. I already got a cutscene waiting for me back at home. Take a couple of ki blasts for me. I'm out. And it's 17. What up?  He's done four. He just can't take the heat. He can't take the heat. Photon flash. Oh, damn. 17 kind of saucing on him. I can't charge because I'm an android, but you know the MVP don't need ki. He's the key to victory. What do you need ki for? Oh, I'm doing it slow, but that's fine. I'm out. Frieza's back up near my cutting time. Oh, Frieza posing up. Oh, Frieza wants Jiren 1 on 1. Frieza's so cool. Let's go. Hold on. I need to hit Frieza's ultimate. Oh, Jiren's not going to give me a chance. Oh, but I dodged it. Oh, my God. Jiren really has problems sweeping the leg. And he's still suffering from ki sickness. He's not going to be able to do his ultimate like I am. Oh, he's getting pummeled. He's done four. He's done four. Sweep around. Oh, and now it's time for the death rain. Oh, my God. He's getting bodied by Frieza. It's a 10-0 match up low dip. Step on his big head. And now cutscene time. Cutscene time.  Photon flash. Oh, wow. He actually is doing photon flash, but in cutscene form. No, no, no. It's not a trick. It's the real deal this time. Photon flash. Yeah. Why 17 like posing on this guy? Is 17 making an anime? You didn't just slow him down. You brought him to his knees. 17 did that. Frieza's coming back in. We are actually just jumping Jiren, by the way. Hey, Jiren, why are you not looking at Frieza? Look him in the eyes as I win this game. I don't have friends. Damn, Jiren built like me in middle school and high school and college. Why, why?  Oh, and I can't do damage to him. If I can't fight him, I'm not, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No damage. This is a lore moment. We are dealing with a class five lore mo- Oh, cutscene. Oh, come on. The cutscene cost me gold form. The, we are dealing with a Defcon five level of lore. This is too much lore for anyone made in Halo. I gotta find a place to hide. That scene. Yes. Oh, it's Goku. But I got this. No way Goku's got this. I don't know what he's talking about. The three of us need to do this together to get this done. Or our universe is doomed. They're coming together. The OG3, the trio. Let's go. Let's go. Yeah, we're back. We're dealing with base form Goku against Jiren. This is damn. No, no, no, I can't take that. That's too much damage. That is way too much damage for little base Goku. Do I have like meteor combination? I want to know if I have meteor combination. That would be cool. Did they give us the ultimate? Did they give us the ultimate? You know the one. Are me and Frieza going to body this guy? Oh, we've got it in the corner. Large spirit bomb. What is this? Well, we didn't, we didn't have what we needed, but meteor smash. We actually do have meteor smash. I love this move. Don't use Frieza. Oh, we're in Jiren with the meteor smash. That is sick. And cutscene time. Who's next? Oh, Frieza wants a piece. Jiren, why are you yelling? You're clearly outnumbered here.  Wait, the miracle of you over seven, did that?  Oh my God. How did they do this? Oh, that is crazy.  That was actually so cool. That was the best part of this fan made mod. He did it. 17 did it. 17 is alone.  That was crazy. I think that's the end. I think 17 is at the end. That's it. We've finally beaten the Dragon Ball Super Story Mode for Budokai Tenkaichi 4. What a fan made mod. They killed it with this game. That Super was definitely the cherry on top. What a way to go out. A great game. I'm obviously going to do more with this mod, but for what it is, that was a perfect fan made story mode. Hopefully you guys enjoyed it.
