This paper proposes a novel multi-scale hybrid convolutional neural network, MSH-CNN, for decoding motor imagery electroencephalogram, e.g. signals to improve classification performance. The two-dimensional convolution is used to extract temporal and spatial features of e.g. signals, while the one-dimensional convolution is used to extract advanced temporal features of e.g. signals. Furthermore, a channel coding method is proposed to enhance the expressive capability of the spatial temporal characteristics of e.g. signals. The proposed method was evaluated on the dataset collected in the laboratory and BCI competition 4-2B, 2A, and the average accuracy was found to be 96.87%, 85.25%, and 84.86%, respectively. Compared with other advanced methods, the proposed method achieved higher classification accuracy. Moreover, the proposed method was applied to an online experiment and a smart prosthetic arm control system was designed. The results showed that the proposed method successfully extracted e.g. signals advanced temporal and spatial features, and the online recognition system contributed to the further development of the BCI system.

You'll recall from our segment on the microscopic in the How Small Is It? video book that momentum is mass times velocity. Another interesting consequence of the speed of light being a constant for all observers is that the momentum of an object increases without bound as its velocity approaches the speed of light. This increases the amount of energy it takes to increase its speed even more. Our best example of this is the Large Hadron Collider at CERN where the Higgs boson was found. To begin with protons are accelerated down a linear accelerator. By the time they reach the first cyclotron they're traveling at one third the speed of light. We can use this as the starting momentum. If we had used Galilean transformations we would be off by 5% and the linear accelerator would not work. The first booster accelerates the protons to 91.6% of the speed of light. This speed more than doubles the momentum. The protons are then flung into the proton synchrotron. They circulate here for 1.2 seconds reaching 99.9% of the speed of light. At this speed their momentum has increased by more than 60 times. The protons are then channeled into the super proton synchrotron. This is a huge ring almost 7 kilometers in circumference. The best that it can do is to increase the velocity of the protons by around 8%. To 99.9998% of the speed of light. The proton's momentum has now jumped by over 1,400 times its momentum at the end of the first acceleration. Finally, the large Hadron Collider accelerates these incoming protons to 99.999964% of the speed of light. The proton's momentum tops out at 10,562 times its original momentum. At this level Galilean transformations would be off by over 99.9%. The fact is that as the velocity gets closer to the speed of light the momentum increases without bound and the energy required to get it even closer to the speed of light grows to be more energy than exists in the universe. This is one of the reasons why we say that nothing with mass can ever reach the speed of light. The operations of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN confirm this relativistic momentum increase just as the operations of GPS satellites confirmed relativistic time dilation and cosmic ray created muons confirmed relativistic length contraction.


Hi guys, I am Dr. Josie, this is Write Your Acceptance. Today I have Ava, former student of mine, who is going to share her pre-dental journey and kind of give us insights into her experience while she applied to dental programs in the US. If you are interested in learning how I work with students and kind of chatting about how we could be potentially partners in application, grab your spot on my calendar link, the link is in the description. And let's start with Ava. Alrighty, I'll see you soon. Ava, thank you so much for meeting me today and sharing your journey so far. So let's jump right in, yeah? Yeah, for sure. So to start us off, let's kind of jump into good news first. Can you share how many interviews you've had, how many acceptances you've had? So I had eight interviews and then out of those eight I had six acceptances and two wait lists. Okay, nice. And do you kind of know already kind of where you're going to end up in or not yet? Yes, so I think that if I don't get into Canada, then I'm going to commit to Boston University. All right, okay, exciting. So being on the other side of kind of applying, how do you feel kind of looking at your entire application journey? How do you feel about it? It's definitely a hard process and it's a long one. I think my biggest advice would be to start as early as possible. So I think I reached out to you in maybe February of last year where application cycle really starts in May. So I wanted to get the personal statement and everything that needs work done ahead of time, which I think really helped me be more prepared for the application cycle and allowed me to submit my applications the first day that applications opened. And I think once you're going through it, it's really stressful, but now that I'm on the other side of it, it's very daunting in the moment, but it all goes well. Like interviews are not as scary as they seem. It's really just a conversation with the people, but it doesn't get better every time. So you anticipated my next question, which would be kind of what advice would you give pre-dental students? Besides starting early, anything else from like how you picked your extracurriculars or kind of how did you find your own? Like what advice do you feel like sometimes is not shared enough? I think picking specifically anything on your application just for the application kind of shows through. So if you're not interested in any of like the medical clubs or pre-dental clubs, if you're interested in the arts or music, I think go the route that you're interested in because it'll show through on your application and also in interviews you'll be able to talk about it and it'll sound authentic. Whereas if you're picking extracurriculars or research or anything, just because it looks good on an application, it's very easy to see through that. So for me, my extracurriculars, so I've been playing the violin since I was little. So that was a big part of my application that in almost all of my interviews they asked about that and it actually has nothing to do with dentistry. And I did a few clubs in university. I think that really helps show a lot of qualities about you like leadership and teamwork. So if there is something that you're interested in, there's a lot of clubs at school and that's a great way to get involved. I also did research and I reached out to a lot of professors in dental school. So I was able to get involved with dental related research, which really helped my application, I think, because that was another big point that interviewers really wanted to talk about. Yeah. And then other than that, I think the story about you is really what they're interested in.  For example, mine was immigration that a lot of interviewers ask questions about because they want to get to know you. So show them who you are and don't just write stuff just for the application to look good. Yeah. It's interesting, right? Like right now you mentioned immigration, you mentioned the violin, and yet you had kind of research and clubs, but you have so many kind of authentic to you aspects of your application and that shine through in different aspects of your application, right? So it's not only your personal statement, but you mentioned that it's in your kind of interview and that they asked you about it. So it's kind of an interesting dance that we had to play with about how to get personal and advance your wide dentistry at the same time. And kind of balance of the two is super important. How did you find those research contacts? So did you send emails directly to professors? Did you find them on LinkedIn? Like how was that kind of connection forged for you? Yeah. So I got involved in physiology research at my school. So I sent a bunch of emails to a lot of professors at my school, just letting them know that I'm interested in their research and sort of what they're investigating. And I was brought onto a project as a volunteer and then an intern. So I had research experience to then leverage when I was reaching out to these professors at dental schools. And so I did email a bunch of professors at universities in Canada. And I did hear back from a couple, but none that were interested in taking me as a volunteer. But fortunately for me, I had contacts within the dental world because my parents are both dentists. And they were able to reach out to their colleagues that were professors at schools and sort of explain why I wanted to get involved in their research and just put me in contact with them. So that's how I was able to be involved in endodontic research. Got it. Perfect. Anything that surprised you from your kind of prepping so your journey to applying not the actual application process? One thing that surprised me, which I sort of anticipated was how long the personal statement processes, especially if you are a perfectionist or you go through it so many times and there's always something to change. And as an applicant, you're hard on yourself. So the surprising thing for me was like how long it takes for it to actually become finalized. And so I think I worked on it all the way from February up until the very day that I submitted my applications because you're always gonna find something that you're gonna be nitpicky about. I would say that would be something that would require a lot of time. Yeah. And you're an excellent writer. I mean, I remember, I distinctly remember your personal statement, but it's what you said. It's like, it's a back and forth. You're always gonna find something. Sometimes it's even kind of like anticlimactic where it's like, okay, it's done. Are you sure it's done? I'm not sure. It's done. I don't feel it. It's done, right? So it's just like to let it go too is tough, but you want that space. Yeah, you want that time and you want that kind of back and forth to not worry, okay, I only have two edits or I don't kind of, I only have three weeks to work on this kind of, and sometimes that's the reality and you have to deal and that's okay and people do it and do well. But if you can stretch out a little bit and just kind of like give that time to yourself, it's yeah, it's kind. Okay. And what about kind of you turned in your application and kind of the waiting game? How did you kind of manage that? How did you feel? What did you do? The waiting game is definitely the worst. Even the interviews as well as the acceptance. So for interviews for dental school, there's no like specific date that just come rolling. So it's hard when you see or hear other people have gotten interviews from a certain school that you really want, but then you kind of feel that you've missed that cycle of interviews and you have to wait until the next cycle. What I always remind myself is they go through these applications, you know, in a pool and maybe you're not in this interview cycle. That doesn't mean that you're never gonna get an interview. And if you don't get an interview, you don't wanna be somewhere that you're not wanted. So it's really hard to do the waiting game. I think the worst thing is like checking your email every five seconds for an interview or an acceptance because you'll just drive yourself crazy. I got some of the interviews that I was really waiting for at the most random times like and I opened my email the next day and I found out.  I checked it every day, but not every minute of the day. And then also staying off of social media and too much, like especially in the groups that everyone posts their interview invites and acceptances, it just really stresses you out. And leading up to the acceptance date, I sort of just reminded myself that I did everything I could to prepare for interviews for the application cycle. And I felt that my interviews went decently well. So I sort of just again stayed off of those groups that everyone, especially on December 15th because it comes out in one day, but they also come out at different times. So you don't know what time it is in seeing that people are getting acceptances from like your dream school or school that you written and that that is really hard. So I just sort of stayed off of it. And when my acceptances started coming in, that's when I found out I didn't even know when schools were sending out their acceptances. Yeah, which is nice. And I mean, that's super kind of kudos to you for mental discipline to kind of know, okay, this is not so healthy for me or this is like I'm gonna get more anxious or more nervous, so I'm gonna dial this down from, yeah, sometimes too much information is not great. Yeah, too much transparency is not great just because it's a lot of external noise. And like you said, you never know if you're in that pool in that moment for kind of that wave of interview invites. It's such a drawn out process that you have to kind of really coach yourself through it. And so we were able, I mean, we had, I had the privilege of working with you the entire way, right? From personal statements to interview prep. How was your experience kind of working together and working through the program? Yeah, my experience was amazing. I think like you definitely really helped me with my application that I submitted on in May and then also the interview prep. You know, I think you were able to show me that storytelling that I was talking about and making sure that you come through as a person that has all these unique, amazing qualities about you and you were able to draw those out of my application and really make those focal points which ended up being the talking points in my interviews. And then in the interviews as well, same thing with like having structured answers and making sure that that authenticity comes through in your answers. So, yeah, and honestly, you were so supportive throughout the whole way. Like, every time I sent you an email or something, I would get a response within like 12 hours, maybe even less. So, it's just nice to have someone that you know is there for you and is supporting you and helping you through the way because it is definitely a really good process. You don't feel alone.  Yeah, I mean, my kind of number one, it's almost like when I'm talking to students and they wanna really know about, oh, what would be your working relationship? How does this program work? It's kind of like hard to explain that it's not editing in the sense of like moving a comma here and there. Yes, we'll work on. Of course, it's gonna be a clean copy of whatever you turn in. It's gonna be elevated language and excellent writing. But it's so much more than that. It's really about curating that story, looking at that message and kind of being there for students and kind of partnering so that you don't feel alone and kind of questions come up and then something, you know, a curve ball happens and kind of like, how do I handle this? How do I navigate that? So, yeah, I mean, I feel so lucky to work with you specifically and then students like you. It's been amazing. Anything else you would tell students? Anything that completely shocked you about like interviews? So something that shocked me was a lot of times, a lot of my interviews weren't like structured like one, two, three questions. It was more like everyone says it's more of a conversation but it really was more of a conversation. And a lot of my interviews, they were very nice and it wasn't like they were trying to trick you or want you to mess up or be super nervous in the interview. They really try to make you feel comfortable in that interview and talk about things that you would wanna talk about. So like they would ask you the typical questions like tell me about yourself or why dentistry and then they would extend off of those questions and pick on something that you said and allow you to explain it further which was really useful for me. And also after my first interview, it really calmed my nerves because I realized that it's not as scary. I had an interview that was for actually Boston University that was an hour long. And at the end the interviewer was like I didn't even realize an hour went by because it wasn't like question after question. It was just like we weren't talking about me as an applicant but also his background and the background of the school and everything. So yeah, definitely try, it's hard to say and try to be more relaxed but it's not as scary and after the first interview I think definitely calms your nerves a lot. Yeah, awesome. So Ava, would you be so kind as to share kind of your statistics, so your GPA, DAT, all that good stuff? Yes, of course. So I had a 3.93 GPA out of a 4.0 scale and my DAT score was a 22 average and then a 21 PAT and a 23 total sciences. Amazing. So we got the interviews and the acceptance is how many schools in total did you apply to? I applied to about 15 schools and so I've had eight interviews. I turned down an invite as well and then I structured my application so I had a few that were sort of like dream schools. They were Ivy Leagues and then I had the most amount of schools in that middle category where I knew I had a shop but it was still very competitive and then I had a few that I knew that most likely my stats fell within the stats of the school and for me it was harder though because I'm an international student applying to the state so I knew that even if I was well above the stats of the school it was still very difficult for me to get in which is why I applied on the first day and it definitely helped my application to apply that early because of the rolling cycle. But yeah, I think anywhere you never really know like it changes every single year so even if you are well above stats there's no guarantee so I don't know if I would recommend applying to that many schools again if you have decent stats and I'm sure a great application I would say maybe a lower number would be better but I'm just that sort of nervous applicant that I did 15. Yeah and it's not uncommon for sure 15, 12, 15 even like 18 schools it's just it's that kind of competitive right but I think you kind of really try to set yourself up to maximize your chances at all times like a timely submission and just kind of you don't only want to turn it in early you want it to be as strong as possible and starting in February to kind of give you that space so it's just like it's almost like you've done this race to prepare you've prepped the DAT you've been excellent in your school but now it's like you're starting a new kind of race right and it's a marathon to apply. So you really kind of there's so many kinds of fronts that you did really well. So kudos to you and to kind of have that foresight to really kind of set yourself up for success. So for those watching if you are starting to write your personal statement or starting to think about your application I'm releasing this like in kind of end of February you don't have to feel overwhelmed you don't have to be kind of alone in this. So if you want to schedule your free call and kind of learn about more details as to how I work with students please schedule your call the link is in the description. Thank you so much Aval for sharing your experience I really, really appreciate it and thank you for working with me. It's been such a privilege. It really has. Thank you so much for all your support and help. I definitely don't think I would have been able to do this without you. Yay, I love the love. All right guys, thanks for watching. Have a good one. Bye.


Hello and welcome to the fourth lecture in this course. So, in the previous lecture we saw what a basis for a topology is and we are going to begin by proving a small lemma ok. So, let us begin with this lemma let tau be a topology on x let b be a basis for tau then union over all elements of b is equal to x. So, let us prove this it is clear the union over all w and b this contain x yeah as b is a subset of tau which is a powers subset of the power set of x and. So, w belongs to b implies w is a subset of x and we are just taking the union. So, we only need to prove that the reverse inclusion. So, let x in x be an element taking u equal to x and using the defining property of the basis and the element I am sorry and the point x in x we get that there is note that u equal to x this is in tau therefore, we can use the defining property of the basis there is a w in b we let us denote a w x such that x is in the set which is in b and obviously, w x is contained in x which is equal to u right. So, thus we get that this union contains x for all for all x in x thus x is contained in the this is because one of these w's is w sub x ok. So, this completes the proof of the lemma. So, now we will prove this very important proposition which tells us when a subset of the power set can be used to generate a topology. So, what it means to generate a topology we will explain just now. So, proposition let x be a set and let b contained in the power set of x be a collection which satisfies the following two properties. So, the first is the union of all w in b w should be equal to x. So, note that we have not given x at a topology right now. So, b is just a subset of the power set of x and the second condition is that given w 1 and w 2 in b and any x in w 1 intersection w 2 there is w in b such that this point x is in w and w is contained in w 1 intersection w 2. So, note that w 1 intersection w 2 may not be in b, but there is another w which is in b and which is contained in w 1 intersection w 2 and contains x. So, we have this collection b which satisfies these two conditions and we define a topology. So, define a collection tau which is a subset of p of x as follows tau is equal to those subsets u of x such that x in u there exists a w in b there exists a w in b such that x belongs to w and w is contained in u. So, then tau is a topology b is a basis for tau. So, let us prove this proposition in order to prove this proposition we have to check that tau satisfies the three conditions which define a topology. So, let us check these one by one. So, the empty set is in tau this is vacuously true since there is no point x in the empty set and. So, therefore, there is nothing to check the full set x is in tau. So, why is this as this union w belongs to b w is equal to x and. So, given any x in x there is it is in one of these w's such that x is in w and obviously, w is a subset of x right. So, thus we have proved that both the empty set and x are in tau. So, this proves the first condition let us look at the second condition here we want to say that finite intersections of elements of tau are in tau.  So, for this we choose. So, choose x in this intersection u i and. So, then for each i as u i is in tau and x is in u i there is w i in b such that x is in w i and w i is contained in u i. So, we claim that property 2. So, this property 2 implies the following which we called 2 prime if x is in w 1 is in the intersection of all the w i's for finitely many w 1 up to w n where each w i is in b then there is w in b such that x belongs to w and w is contained in the intersection of i equal to 1 to n w i. So, note that this property 2 property 2 is same as 2 prime when n is equal to 2. However, we are saying that using an easy induction argument which is left as an exercise. So, the proof that 2 implies 2 prime is left as an exercise the hint is use induction ok. So, then using 2 prime we get that there is w which contains x and w is contained in intersection i equal to 1 to n w i which in turn is contained in the intersection i equal to 1 to n u i. So, thus this intersection u i is in tau as it satisfies the property defining tau. And finally, we have to check the third condition. So, given a set i and subsets u i of x such that u i is in tau we need to show that the union is in tau. So, once again we do the same. So, let x be an element in the union then x is in u j for some j in i and since u j is in tau this implies there exist some w such that x belongs to w and w is contained in u j which in turn is going to be contained in this union. So, thus so, this shows that the union satisfies the defining property for tau is contained and so, is contained. So, this proves that this completes the proof that tau is a topology. So, next we have to show that we have to show that we also need to show b is a basis for tau which means that we need to show that that is for every u in tau and x in u we need to show there exist w in b such that x is in w and w is in u. But this follows from the definition of u being in tau. So, this completes the proof with the proposition. So, later on we shall in the next lecture we shall use this proposition to generate topologies on various sets. So, this is a very useful proposition. Let me give an exercise over here. Notice that in this proposition we started with a set and a collection b which satisfy two properties and then we defined a topology tau on x using this collection b and moreover b turned out to be a basis for that topology tau. So, but we can ask ourselves what happens if we started with a topology and a basis for that topology. So, let x be a set and let before this. So, let us introduce some notation let x be a set b contained in power set b such that it satisfies hypothesis in the proposition. Then b defines a topology then we defined topology then we shall denote the topology we defined in the previous proposition tau sub b and note that b is a basis for tau sub b. So, with this notation here is an exercise let x be a set and let tau b a topology let b be a basis for tau. So, then by the lemma. So, by this lemma that we proved using this lemma using this lemma and the definition of a basis the definition of basis it follows that b satisfies the two hypothesis in the proposition. Thus b defines a topology on x which we denoted tau sub b. So, a priori this tau sub b may be different from tau and the exercises show that tau is equal to tau sub b. So, with this ok. So, now we will put this aside for a few minutes and let us define topologies on subsets of x given a topological space x. So, definition of subspace topology. So, from now on before we define subspace topology when we say let x be a topological space we shall mean that x is a set and it has a topology. So, with this let us define subspace topology. So, let x be a topological space and let us say with topology tau let y be a subset of x. Then using tau we can define a topology on y in a natural way. So, define subset tau sub y contained in the power set of y as follows is the collection of u intersection y where u belongs to tau. So, we simply take all open subsets in tau. So, recall that if I said u belongs to tau then we often then we had decided agreed to use a notation u is open in tau. So, we just take all open subsets in tau and intersect that with y and that gives a topology on. So, claim is that this gives a topology on y. So, this is being left as an exercise. Check that tau sub y satisfies the three conditions for being a topology and so defines a topology which we call the subspace topology. So, let us see some simple examples of subspace topology. So, first so, let x have the trivial topology. So, then recall that tau is just consists of the empty set and x and in this case clearly the subspace topology tau y also just consists of the empty set and y and so the subspace topology on y is the trivial topology. So, similarly so, let x have the discrete topology. So, recall that the discrete topology meant that we are going to take tau equal to power set of x. So, then clearly tau sub y is equal to the power set of y because given any v in y, v is a subset of y and so it is also a subset of x and so v belongs to tau this implies that v intersection y which is v belongs to tau sub y. Thus we have proved that tau sub y it contains all subsets y which implies that tau sub y is the discrete topology. Let us take a third example. Let us take r with the standard topology and let this is x and let y be the subspace z ok. So, the question is what is the subspace topology on y? So, we claim that the subspace topology on y is the discrete topology that it is equal to the discrete topology. So, to show this it is enough to show that if we take a point in y a singleton then this subset is open in the subspace topology because if we show this then this would imply that given any subset w in y since we can write w as the union over all n in w these subsets singleton n and since arbitrary unions of open sets are open this imply that. So, we are assuming that suppose we can show that each singleton n is open. So, each n is open and we take arbitrary unions. So, that is also open. So, this would imply that w is open. So, every open subset will be I am sorry every subset of y will be open and y. So, therefore it is enough to show that these singleton ends are open, but to see this. So, each n we can write as the open interval n minus half comma n plus half intersected with y right because. So, here we have the real line and here is point n. So, let us say this is n minus 1 this n plus 1. So, this interval this is open in the standard topology in R right. So, is open in the standard topology in R and u intersection y is exactly n right. So, therefore this singleton n is in tau y or equivalently it is open in the standard in the subspace topology and therefore and from what we have seen above all subsets of y open. So, we will end this discussion here and in the next lecture we will see a slightly more complicated example.


Hello everyone, this is Amit Dan of AmitDan.com You are watching OnakmaEgypt travel videos and today I am taking you to the temple of ISIS at Philly in Aswan, Egypt. The Philly temple is the oldest temple that was built by the last of the pharaohs. The original Philly temple was in the middle of the Nile when it was first built more than 2000 years ago. Once the Aswan low dam was completed in 1902, flooding started to damage it more than ever. In 1960, Egypt, UNESCO and 30 other nations started an epic engineering rescue feat to move these colossal ancient Egyptian temples from flood waters from one island to another island. I was literally shocked when my guide told me that they moved the whole temple complex from one island to another. You cannot even tell those hemongous structures were cut, moved and reattached. I only saw some lines which the guide showed me that they are the results of the joints. I wouldn't have even noticed had the guide not mentioned it. To this day, I find it unbelievable and remarkable how engineers managed to cut a whole temple complex and rebuilt it exactly to its original specifications without being obvious. To reach the present-day Philly temple which is located on Agil Kea island, we had to take a boat and you'll see the boat ride on this in this video. Thank you for watching this video. There will be more videos coming so I'll see you shortly. Thank you.


spread across the countryside about the wise holy man who lived in a small house atop the mountain. A man from the village decided to make the long and difficult journey to visit him. When he arrived at the house, he saw an old servant inside who greeted him at the door. Hello, yes, I'd like to see the wise holy man. He said to the servant, the servant smiled and led him inside. As they walked through the house, the man from the village looked eagerly around the house, anticipating his encounter with the holy man. Before he knew it, he had me led out the back door and escorted outside. He stopped and turned to the servant. But I want to see the holy man. You already have, said the old man. Everyone that you will meet in your life, even if they appear plain and insignificant, I want you to see each of them as a wise and holy man. If you do this, whatever problem you brought here today will be solved.


Hi everybody it's Sam at Mixed Up Craft, thank you for watching my tutorial today. I'm going to be showing you how to make these really cute laminated gift tags or toppers, they're really quite special, I love them. I wasn't going to do this as a tutorial, I was just enjoying my you know afternoon in my craft room so I've got my cup of tea here but I thought I would because I'm sure some of you will get some inspiration from this and want to give it a go. So I have these two decoupage packs from this one's a first edition by Hell's Couple Ditch and this is a dove craft and I have used them a few times that the toppers that you can make from them are perfect to just put on a gift box if you want something quick but I found I wasn't going to them as much as I thought I would and I was worried that they're just going to end up getting forgotten so I was thinking of other ways to work them and I have laminated them and it completely transforms them and it makes them into quite a posh looking gift tag I think. Now these two here I've made into shaker tags and again they're brilliant you can see all the dimension there, you literally work them use them just as you would with a normal decoupage and just stick them on top of each other.  You could have this as plain paper that you've cut with a circle and then you've got this kind of an image of something and you can layer them up that way so there are ways to do this. I've got them on long bits of ribbon so they're ready to tie around gift bags it's nice sometimes you know there is presents that are too big and I need to buy a big gift bag but it's just plain and boring. This is going to be perfect now to be able to pop on to those. I haven't done it yet but I'm just going to die cut some like an oval piece of white card and just stick it on the back with some double-sided tape so I can write my message my to and from on the back and the same with these ones here it just needs a large piece there. They're all stuck down still with foam, yes they will come off if you really pick at them but let's face it we're not going to do that these will last a long time they're not going to fall off and they could easily be re-used as well which my mum would probably do if she got one of these. So this is what we're going to make I finished them with little eyelets as well I think they're the little details that kind of really make them you know that little bit more fancy as well so okay now I have done one two three four five six from the sweet moments and I've only done one from the beach so I have had a look and I want to do this frog so I'm going to pull that one out so he will be a normal kind of this kind of style I guess and then I'm going to do a shaker style as well which will be let's have a look these are such lovely images and they're perfect for gift tags this one here will be a shaker and it's happy birthday so I'm going to pull that one out of there I don't want to come out so well and I think I'm going to do one more as well because I do like that one I think that's gorgeous I was already pulled out look at that one by the sea with love so they do they they um they do hold themselves well to be gift tags we've got that one there fun in the sun I used that did I use that one use that on my screen fold card I think that I've done anyway yeah so I'll share all the links to these and that's obviously the other ones there there are more in there haven't used them all um I don't think I've done that one yeah you got time for two did I do oh yeah I did do that that's that one that looks really good because it comes over you know it kind of um comes over the oval shape so I really do like that one what was the other one that I didn't ah the cupcake one but I had the cupcake already set up so that's what it looks like on its on its own which is lovely and that will look great on the card front even but I just think once they've got that laminated cover on them they look even more special so yeah I'm really pleased with this right let's get into it so what you want to do first of all is let's do this one is just take everything out and they're numbered one two three and four and then there's little extras as well if you want to you know give it even more dimension so I'm just going to go and pull all my pieces out pile them up on top of each other so you don't get them confused or mixed up with any other ones okay so I've got my laminator just heating up there and I've just taken one of my A4 pouches I'm just going to grab all the bits and just sit them in and give them a nice gap between because there will be that area directly on the edge of all of your whatever it is you're laminating it will be slightly cloudy where it's not um stuck to the you know they haven't stuck to each other because they're going around this tiny kind of one mil thick card um so you don't want to cut too close to that otherwise you will end up opening up your laminated pieces so I'm just keeping mine nicely spread out there and that one and then I can get something from another one on the end here because there is still a lot of space free so I'm going to do let's do something a bit bigger okay so you just want to cover your piece see if this is just nearly or nearly ready okay so my green light is now on so this is ready to go through so just hold it up carefully there and just feed that all through I always run mine through twice so I'm going to do this one and then pop them all into another pouch and run them through twice as well okay so they are all laminated I'm just going to turn that down and turn that off okay so they're all laminated okay so now what we need to do is just roughly cut them all out but don't go too close so you can see there if I just bring this one up can you see that's what I mean by that cloudy bit there just a little you can just see it there catching in the light this bit here you don't want to cut that because if you cut that it will open it up and then it was just your images you know they won't fall out because they are stuck but it will just create an opening so when we cut it we'll be cutting about I don't know one eighth of an inch away from that it kind of is fussy cutting but you don't have to be that fussy with it because it's clear plastic you know the pouch that we're using you really don't see it so you can see I'm just being very rough there cutting out all my bits because it makes it easier to cut it overall and this one as well okay so I've got all my pieces roughly cut so now you need to just go around so just I'm not being too careful I'm just staying away from that kind of seal and like I said because it's clear don't worry if it's a little bit kind of messy or skew with you're not going to really see it it's not something that someone's going to look at so there they go so I quick that was that's what you want to do is just try and cut it out as best as you can and these make lovely fun little hanging like decorations as well just on your little journals and your mini albums and things like that so I'm going to sit down now and go through the rest of these okay so I've cut them all out I've got my three piles and then I'm going to start to stick them down so I'm just getting my foam tape and popping it on my breeze proof paper and this will make it much much easier for me to cut it and to cut the thinner strips for the shaper one so it makes it much much easier to use cheaper and it doesn't ruin your scissors okay so I am going to do this one first so this is the non shaker one so with this one here all I want to do is just cut to just stick on so if I do squeeze it in there we go and basically just literally do this just as you would if this was you know not laminated it's just the normal way that you would do your decoupage because I know that quite a few of you do do decoupage and have it because I done my that little book card with the decoupage of the hunky dory and lots of you really liked that so I'm sure you have this and then you just line it all up so with this one here you just got to line it up with that inner frame so now already we've got that nice dimension and then it's always that you do the largest first then the second and then the third and you end up your smallest pieces of your last pieces that's the easiest way to because I haven't got that bit with one two three four obviously keep that out if you're not familiar with um decoupage and how it works but the easiest way to remember is you start with your largest first and just work your way down squeeze that one in there so I'm going to layer this one all up and there you go so now you can see all that dimension how cool that looks and then all I need to do now is just um die cut um a square just to go on the back and then I'm going to do my little actually I'll do that afterwards I'm going to now put a hole punch so I'm going to hole punch just probably should have done this one first but this one I didn't realize it was going to come down so low I'm just going to go over it a bit there okay and then I've got my my little eyelets pop that one in there so that just needs the ribbon so that's that one now I'm going to show you how to do the shaker one so you've already got your shaker window all done that's the thing I like about this it's like instant it's really good and that may be a new way that I start doing my shaker cards um is laminating it because yeah I think it's great okay so this is the biggest bit okay so that's going to go down first so what we want to do is make a very very thin strip of um this foam so that we can stick it all around that frame so that none of our sequins fall out too okay and then what you want to do is grab the end just like I do in my shaker videos just work it around and this is a much much cheaper way than buying that very expensive shaker card tape which doesn't go far you won't get many cards from it either and so this is my I've always done it this way so that's that one and then grab the end here there we go make sure you join it right up again so you're not going to have anything and just twist it around don't worry about the top backing because once you take that off it will all you know become straight again and in place so and then just trim that right off so it's right up and you can see that okay then we've got this piece and now we need to add our sequins so I've just got these ones that match these pinky ones and we're just going to grab that bundle of them there and you just want to make sure you keep it all within that frame she says and then it pushes them out everywhere you can use your anti static on this as well your buddy just go around it like I've done before but because I'm using the plastic anyway it's it's you're always going to kind of have a static so I'm not going to worry too much okay so they're all in that pink frame you don't want them coming out and then just take off the backing here make sure you've got nothing in there that shouldn't be and then just stick your frame over the other one I'm just going to bring it down so I can see right over it and there I've got my shaker and the sentiment and the picture it doesn't matter that you've covered it because now with the decoupage we're going to then put that over the top we're going to put our happy birthday and we're going to layer it all up so this is I really have lights doing it this way I think it's really really quite thumb so again I've done them too big I do them in half and you can see it doesn't take long I wouldn't say I'm taking too too much care but that's not just mean I'm brushing it I'm not rushing it by any means but you don't have to you know be too precise with these so now you need to roughly kind of see obviously where you're sticking this so looks about right there we go happy birthday so I need a thinner piece that's too thin let's just cut another bit and again I can just about see it like so and then these three are each of the animals so that one the bear and the dogs I'm just going to stick them down okay and there's that one you can see all that dimension it's just a really fun shaker tag so I do like that one a lot so now I'm going to finish this one which is the same process as that one so I'm going to get that one all stuck down okay so that's the one that I showed you before just pop the ribbon through that ready to go on whatever it is and then this one here look how cute that one is oh I think he's lovely the little dog there I just he's just got such a sweet face and I'm literally just threading through a matching piece of ribbon there just on the corner and there you go so I've just got a like I said put my um plain paper on the back there so I can write on it but they are ready and they are all going to go into my tub of tags and yeah absolutely love them so hopefully I've inspired you there it's something else to do with your laminating machine so I know a lot of you are really enjoying this kind of other way to incorporate you know your paper crafting with your laminator so I love it yeah hope you did please subscribe and hit like button and I'll be back again in a couple of days thanks for watching bye


On Monday we spoke about the mysterious Voynich manuscript. A manuscript from the 15th century, this of course is a manuscript with an unrecognizable language. We know that the Voynich manuscript spent a lot of time with the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II. Rudolf II was also a part of the very strange and very powerful Habsburg dynasty.  Now there was one other book in Rudolf's personal collection and this book Rudolf himself was slightly obsessed with. This particular book would have the people of Rudolf's court gossiping like crazy. They feared that Rudolf himself was into Satanism and possibly into demonology. So what was this particular book?

So if you tried to find us before following the link and you couldn't, that was probably why. Welcome to Esso, Terak Atlanta. My name is Bryce and today we're going to be talking about the Codex Gingus. Gingus translates in Latin to big or giant book. The Codex Gingus is also known as the Devil's Bible. Now this should not be confused with the Satanic Bible. It's very different. The Codex Gingus was written in the 13th century, and it is about 165 pounds and three feet tall. It takes more than one person to move this book. The Codex Gingus is rumored to be the Devil's Bible because of its origins. Now there is a painting of the devil in the middle of the book. It's a very famous painting from the Codex Gingus. And in fact, looking at the painting, the devil is positioned on the right side. Normally this side is put aside for Jesus or God and the left being the demonic side. But however, in the Codex Gingus, it appears that the left side opposite the devil is heaven. We know that the Codex Gingus was created by someone called Hermanus Inclusus. This was Herman, the recluse. Now legend states that Herman was a monk living in the 13th century in Bohemia in a monastery. Now apparently Herman had done something so evil. He had broken his vows that his punishment was death. Now to be fair to Herman, back in the 13th century it did not take a whole lot to warrant the death penalty.  This is very, very similar to our discussion on Glam's castle and some of the legends that come from that castle as well. Well, the story goes that as the final bricks were being laid into Herman's basically death room, he screamed to the abbot for mercy. Well, the abbot needed to deal with Herman that if he could write a book in one night that would encompass all of human knowledge that his sins would be pardoned.  Well, Herman got to work and around midnight, Herman realized that there was no way he was going to finish this task. And so Herman did the unthinkable in his desperate hour of need. He made a prayer and a pact with the devil himself to help him complete this codex gingus. And sure enough, the devil appeared and for the price of Herman's eternal soul, the devil finished the book in one night. Because of Herman signing the book Inclusus, that is what gave way to the myth. But you see a lot of scholars today believe that that simply could have just meant Herman the recluse. Because you see a lot of scholars believe that completing this book in one night was impossible. Of course, it's impossible according to the myth that the only the devil could finish it in one night. But what if Herman did not sell his soul to the devil and what if he was just a recluse in the monastery and spent 30 years creating the codex gingus? It still doesn't mean that this is not a book dedicated to the devil. For that, my opinion, is still unsure. We do know that even though realistically it would have taken about 30 years to complete this codex gingus, not one point does the penmanship slip up. In fact, from beginning to end of the book, it's perfect penmanship, no eras. Even historians are shocked because within a 30 year period, eyesight starts to go age, arthritis creeps in. And you can see in a lot of older pieces where the penmanship starts to crack a little bit, you can probably see that with your own penmanship, times when you're tired versus times when you're focused. So it's pretty miraculous that throughout this whole codex, there is not one mistake. Scholars also believe that this was created by one single hand. The handwriting matches itself throughout the whole book. This was a one man job. This wasn't a tag team. It was one guy, probably Herman since he's the one who signed it. Now another interesting thing to point out about the codex gingus. Regardless of whether it took one night as a pact to the devil or over 30 years as an agreement to the devil, we do know that there are about 10 to 12 pages missing. People believe that these 10 to 12 pages list the devil's prayer. This was the specific prayer that Herman prayed for the devil to appear and help him finish the book. Something also very interesting to mention about the codex gingus is that there are many exorcisms written about in this book. And the thing about these exorcisms that are different from modern day exorcisms is that it listed the demons names. This is not common. It was almost like an homage to these particular demons. The codex gingus also has a complete copy of the Vulgate Bible. Now this was the first Latin translation of the Bible. And even though the codex gingus was written in the 13th century, the Vulgate Bible was not recognized by the Catholic Church until the 16th century. Now it is important to mention that the Vulgate Bible is without the book of acts and revelation. You also had such books as Antiquities of the Jews, Isidore of Seville's Encyclopedia, Cosmos of Prague, who was a priest and historian from Bohemia, who lived between 1045 AD and 1125 AD. The codex gingus also included a lot of medical findings of that time, which we spoke about with the Voynich Manuscript. You see, a lot of times the medical findings were seen to be satanic by the church during this weird part of history. The codex gingus also included two of the books from Constantine of Africa. You see, Constantine was a physician who lived in the 11th century, the same time as Cosmos. This book also included two different styles of Hebrew alphabet, along with other alphabets recognized at that time. Obviously, this is quite an impressive work, the codex gingus. And again, Rudolph II, the Holy Roman Emperor, decided that he wanted the book. Now, apparently he got the book on loan, which he never returned. I guess even kings and queens and emperors have a hard time returning their library books. Now, as I said in the opening, people around the court whispered a lot about Rudolph II. Rudolph II was a pretty quiet, but yet eccentric man.  Now, today we do know that the Habsburgs do practice Luciferianism. As for Rudolph himself, I can only speculate that there probably was some Luciferian activity going on, if not with him, then definitely with his family. Now, historically, Rudolph II is not seen as a great leader. As we talked about with the Voynich Manuscript, Rudolph II did struggle with depression or melancholy. And obviously, medicine wasn't up to snuff when it came to those types of disorders. Now, we also know that Rudolph was himself pretty much a recluse, a bit like our Herman, who wrote the Codex Genghis. Now, Rudolph II, he did contribute a lot to the arts and to sciences, but he just was not that great of a leader. In fact, he didn't even die on the throne. Throne, his family pretty much threw him off and gave the crown to his brother because he just couldn't handle being the emperor. And in fact, a lot of people blame the 30 years war in that area of Europe on Rudolph II. You see, when Rudolph II was the emperor, we had a lot of reformation going on in Europe. There was a lot of battling back and forth between Catholics and Protestants and the control of the Pope versus the control of different kings. It's all very complicated. Well, during the 38 years war, the Swedes came in and confiscated the Codex Genghis in 1648. And that's where the Codex Genghis has been ever since. The Codex Genghis now has its home at the National Library of Sweden. Now, the Codex Genghis is also said to be cursed. Apparently, there's been a lot of fires around the Codex Genghis. And apparently in one fire, they threw the Codex Genghis out of the window and attempts to save it. And it actually injured a bystander that was just walking by. So you're walking down the street and all of a sudden, a 165 pound book knocks you to the ground. Then come to find out it's not just any book, but it's the devil's Bible. I mean, I would probably feel like God was trying to tell me something if the devil's Bible knocked me out like that. Now, again, for me, the jury is still out on whether I actually believe this is a satanic book or just a Codex from many, many, many centuries ago. I understand there is a big painting of the devil, but there were lots of paintings of the devil. I understand that in this book, the devil took the right hand side of the page, which is normally given to God. But this might have been just a simple mistake. I don't think I believe the myth of Herman selling his soul in one night to write this book. I think that might just be an urban legend or a tall tale coming from a very simple explanation that Herman took about 30 years to write it. It was his life's work. Now, again, this is a very important book because it does carry a lot of medical information from that time, as well as an encyclopedia, as well as snippets of information from other historians and scientists that came before Herman. And I do understand why this book is of great occult concern. I understand that there are multiple pages that are missing that possibly carried out some demonic prayer, but we don't know that for sure. We don't have the pages to verify that. So I'm left with quite a question in my own head. Is this the devil's Bible? Was this created in the worship of Lucifer? Or did it get that reputation because of the times, because of all the information in the codex that was seen as satanic back then? And was the myth further perpetrated by its ownership falling to Rudolf II, who already came from an interesting family and already had some rumors swirling around his own beliefs? What do you think? What's your explanation from the codex Gingus? And have you been to Sweden to see this mysterious book? Let me know in the comments down below. Alright guys, I know this has been a crazy week. We got a lot going on in our world right now. And I hope you guys are all taking really good care of yourself, that you're resting, you're eating healthy, you're getting some exercise. And remember to be compassionate to those that are just now waking up to what is actually happening in our world.

We are having much fun in the studio, of course we still continue with the show, Touchline is the show this particular afternoon, of course we discussing matters, sports especially football with regards to what is happening, December holiday is approaching and a lot of people are staging grass root football initiative set to give back to the certain and the young people who are passionate about football and one of them is absolutely Organis joining us this particular afternoon of course is not a new face on the show, it's been here before good to see you. Funtastic. How is Busea? Meaning Busea is doing very fine. Me lad to Leo. I've just landed here to talk about Budalang Youth Sports Academy. Talent search, how is it the progress? We do talent search each and every year and this time around we are doing BISA 2020 talent search for under 15 so that we can give these young people a platform to showcase their talents and they can be able to fulfill their dreams through their talents. Young people have exhibited a lot of talents and their passion for football is on another level right? Budalangi has rough diamonds that just require polishing and if you polish these diamonds I am very sure they are going to shine for the rest of their life. They are going to shine for the rest of their humanity. This initiative has been running for a while? Ya Budalangi has been like since you pioneered the initiative, the program. We started these activities in the year 2013 and I looked at Kenyan context. I looked at Kenyan scenario and I realized that there is a lot of problems that are facing football. There are numerous challenges that are still predominant in most of our counties and sub counties around Budalang. At least because the desire and zeal over young people to conquer and be number one has unfortunately not been matched with opportunities and facilities like most stadiums, even football itself to play. If you look at Kenyan context, thousands and thousands of young people lose hope and they start engaging in the indulging in various activities like drug abuse, prostitution, child labour, child marriage and even child pregnancies. It can therefore not be argued that idleness breeds crime and various malpractices that can only lead to the destruction of an individual and his communities. So we looked at that kind of context and we decided, me and some likely the people like Lord Silas Wereke in Budalangi, Paul Marihemu, the late Paul Nogutinjura, Teddy Miano decided to come up with the Budalangi Youth Sports Academy. In pursuing a passion, in pursuing a zeal to transform the lives of young people, not only in Budalangi but also in Nibusia County and sub counties around in Kenya. And since we started this initiative, it has brought a new dawn, thousands of young people as you speak, they are benefitting from free mentorship program through BISA, they are benefitting from free exchange visit program between BISA and national and international academies through BISA, they are benefitting from free scholarships through BISA. And since we started this initiative, we believe that we have one more main objective. The main objective of Budalangi Youth Sports Academy is to build an arena whereby under the pavilion we put classes. In those classes we will be teaching both national and international syllabus so that we can give these young people an opportunity to showcase their talents and invite the international clubs to come in Kenya, to come in Budalangi and tap these talents. I'm very sure what our young people are being paid outside Kenya is much more that is being paid with a big club like Gormaya here, a player in Gormaya who is being paid mostly it can be said that 1000. That is a little man for the sport. We believe FOOTBALL is a major sport event in the world. This game of FOOTBALL has contributed in enriching so many individuals, so many individuals. The question is usually boiled down to youth and it's all about youth management and how we can help them get on to the next stage in their sports careers and everything. And the last time when we talked we were doing a BISA under 15 talent search. And these are children who are likely to be joining high school or they are finishing primary and joining their high school and all that. How do you fuse them between high school sports and also joining the academy of BISA? We do play this talent search in each and every Sunday of the week. Currently, as we speak, young people are now playing the talent search for this Saturday, tomorrow Sunday and on Monday. After that we now engage our young people in school whereby we deal directly with the school games masters whereby they tap the people who can be able to form a team and come to play on Sunday. So we are very much, is a very much organized academy whereby we have director for coaching who deals with all coaches and coaches involves these games masters in each and every school. Then we have the director for referees who tap the young people who can be able to be trained by FKF and FIFA to become referees. And we have director for communication, we have director for vetting and we have all other stakeholders that make sure that this academy is running during school. And what else after the under 15 now? Under 15 we do have what we call a recruit. We have director for vetting called Madam Phili Soudaba. The purpose of this director for vetting is to ensure that she recruits the best. This best is the one that we take them to exchange visit program between BISA. Just recently we brought young people from Budalang who are the best players of the previous year to more international stadium Kasarani to play with other some academies here in Nairobi. So that we can invite, we invited the other recruiters from outside the world outside Kenya to come and tap these talents. And as we speak, we are very fortunate that we are dealing with the first FCSU coffin in Germany who are doing an exchange visit program and getting us some materials so that we can be able to fulfill our dreams through BISA. So you and I understand that Western is a cradle land. Where he comes from, where the former captain for the national team Rambestaz Victor Wanyama and his brother McDonald Marika. In fact he is build a sports academy at Ekisumu in Ibusia which is current land where he not yet complete. But in the event that it will come to conclusion, think that will be one of the fantastic projects we've ever witnessed in the country. And I think it's a good initiative because during Christmas festivities a lot of people organize grass root football tournaments. But once they are done, it's over. There is no continuity. That is one of the main objectives of BISA. We sat around and decided that we must come with a progressive initiative that will be sustainable. Because if you look around especially during this election time, during this campaign time, you will see so many tournaments that lack sustainability. So we brought this BISA so that we can be able to save this generation to be able to be saved from the bad politicians who brought bad tournaments. And use young people like bait to catch votes. And immediately after elections they leave these young people in the village. One in poverty. They don't know what to do. They come for years later. With the promises again. With the tournaments of Mafianando Leho. Because that's the way to go. That lack sustainability. Mafianando Leho. And they leave these young people in the village. One in poverty. And these young people are smart. They are energetic. If they are given an opportunity they can play better football than even in Ronaldo. Or in Messi. Or women outside Kenya. So we urge these bad leaders to join us. And ensure that we have a proposal in the National Assembly. Which says that each and every constituents must have a sports academy. So that we can be able to tap talents from the grass roots. I'm not talking about the bottom up. But I'm saying we start from the grass roots. So that these young people can be able to showcase their talents while they are still young. When you look at what is happening in our country today. In football and you realize that football Kenya federation is in problems under everything that is going on. What can you advise them? Because when you look at youth and how youths are being taken care of. I think we can go as back as the 1980s era. Where we had the Olympic youth center. And if you look at the 80s. That is when Kenya chaned some of the best footballers. And we qualified three times in that era for the Africa Cup of Nations. It's all because we had a program that was being run from the youth level. Going all the way up. They selected some of the best players then to play for the national team. And you saw how Kenya flourished. When you look at now you have a youth system. That you are running and everything. What can you advise the current football managers? Currently, first of all, I want to appreciate what Dr. Amina Muhamed has done to our football federation. They are disbaminate of football Kenya federation as they go. Tik. Was a good tik. Because if you look at Kenyan context. Young people are losing hope. Thousands of thousands of young people were barring their talents. They were even thinking that football does not pay. Simply because of the top management of the game which was sleeping. And not only sleeping but also engaging in corruption. You cannot be the pilot of the football and you don't have that passion for it. And I want to urge President Uhur Kenyat to support what Dr. Amina Muhamed is doing. Because we doubt disbaminate of FKF. And come up with this proper structure. We will be able to propel our football to another level. Kenya will be forever beaten by Uganda. Five meals, one to ten meals in Djibouti even that we are beaten. Ten years we will start beating us. Simply because we don't have that passion at that top level. I want to urge government to discuss football budget. We want to discuss health budget. We want to discuss education budget. We want to discuss any other big budget like defence. Because if you have proper structure of football or sports from the grass root. The people will be healthy. Simply because others will be watching. Even if you are not playing. Others will be earning from that football. If you get young person from example Buddha line. And be paid what someone like Drogba was being paid. Or be paid the same amount that no Salah is being paid. That person can be able to build a road of 15 kilometers. 10 kilometers for himself. You will change a village. You will change a village. The whole community will see that progress. Football will change the lives of community and Kenyans. In the way that can be seen by everyone. In the eyes of everyone. That road that he builds. He will never carry it away. He will live there to be used forever. By everyone that will come there. That's just one individual. What about if we get two? Other one builds a hospital. Other one builds a market. Other one builds. We will have development all over. Through sports. I am here to urge each and every leader. To think these young people. To support Amina Muhammad. Because if you don't think about young people at this time. Tomorrow they will turn up to be rocks. They will be rocks. They will be rocks not because they want to be rocks. But they will be rocks because they want to be high ground. Because he is reiterating the message that was being delivered by Dave Betale. On the Shwalia round that you know. There is need for people who are at the helm of football management. To be passionate about the game and do what is expected of them. Rather than doing what is geared towards them. Gaining other than the football benefiting. Yes. I have been running this football academy for the last 7-8 years. And I have not gained anything. All I only need is that we must have a structured football academy from grass root level. So that when we have around a star coach. He can go to visit these academies. And top talent from there. Not calling people from Gorma ya who has been called from everywhere. Or from Fc. And say that that is not the team that he has named. He should behave like role-fabish. The late role-fabish. The late role-fabish. The way he was behaving. From grass root level. That's where you go and get the talents. We have CDF money. We have a lot of money that is being used by tournaments that are called mafia. And don't know how in this country of yours everywhere you will find someone being tournament. Tournament. All over. So I look at the games that you are having today here. I think at 2 pm you are having 11 brothers versus ambassador. And then at 4 pm you have generation versus dragon that will be played. And then tomorrow also 11 brothers versus palm and then ambassador versus senior. So those are some of the matches that happened under the BISA under 15 talent search. Exactly. So how did you come with all these matches that you are having at the moment? We advertise for BISA talent search. Then we have 4 branches of BISA in Bidalani youth sports academy. We have BISA north that is found in Bidala south. We have BISA north, BISA south, BISA west and BISA central. All coordinators of these branches do have a center for playing. So when these young people come to play during Sunday, they form teams. They say you are many, you are like a hundred, now you need to form like 4 teams. So these teams give them names. That's why you see there is a dragon, there is a lids, there is an 11 brothers. So that they now start playing in a competitive format whereby at the end of December we come together as a grand finale. In this grand finale we offer them cash prizes but we don't call them cash prizes because they are still young. So we call them basaris whereby we give them basaris ranging from 30,000 to 20,000 to 10,000. So they can be able to remain in school. Then we also give them profit to not met them. And the best players that we have been selected, these are the people now we carry in the bus and bring them here to Nairobi in order to show the other day. So this is a very great initiative that if it can be supported by everyone, can be supported by all of you. Can be supported by every leader on this earth of Kenya. Then we will see development in Kenya that can never been seen through the sports. We have also been working in partnership with Kenya Sports Secondary School Association because I understand KAAA is also doing a related thing, especially at the grassroot school playing against each other. And through the same initiative, talents get supported by relevant stakeholders. Coaches visiting machinani places to get to identify the level of potential. Do you work in partnership with them? We do invite all principals of secondary schools across Kenya to come during grand finale. From 23rd of December, after the 30th of December, we have now proper quarterfinals, semifinals and now the grand finale. This is the time that they come in and start tapping the talents. That's why I say that BISA has given them an opportunity to school for free. So any principal that decided to take our child from BISA must be able to have a covenant with us that this child is going to school for free from one up to from four. So we do work with them hand in hand. Actually the best players that we played the last match that we had before COVID were all from BISA. If you were at Nyeri, that's where the finals were, they are all from BISA. Those are the talents that we showcased at Nyeri. And we believe that if each and every principal who is here in Nyeri at this time and his school performs well in football, he can be able to come during December 23rd to 30th at Makunda in Budalagi.  You are talking about support. What kind of support do you want to get from football stakeholders and other people out there? First and foremost, I want to thank Dr. Amina Muhammad and I am inviting her to come during these 23rd to 30th football matches. And the most support I want from her as a stakeholder of sports in Kenya, especially in football, I want her to urge our leaders to bring emotion to the parliament to say that we must have sports academy in each and every constituents. That is one. Two, I want to urge Dr. Amina Muhammad. Two, after this take a committee to come up with a committee, to come up with a FKF chair that has a passion at football. And this FKF personnel must be able to look at the grassroot football not only up and over football. Start, I want urge President Hukinyat to look at the budget of sports the same way he looks at the budget of health. That is all. You see, like parents of nowadays when their kids are getting passionate about sports, especially football, they say football is unreliable. It's not, you know, do not put bread on your table. Has it been like in terms of parents from Belangi as if they impressed your initiative to let their kids, you know. When we started, we had so much, we had so much politics. Some say, oh maybe we have played this football for long, it has not been able to propel us to another level. But I told them, what you have bought is a different thing. It is not that tournament, so we have failed and left. This is a kind of football that will be able to propel this child from five years up to 18 years. And we will be able to follow him at the same time to see whether he got job or he did not get job. That has also been the main problem, follow up and continue. Follow up and continue. Continuity, sustainability, that has been the problem. So we told them we have bought this initiative so that we can be able to save these young people from those bad habits of bad politicians who have been using them like a bait to catch votes. So we have bought this football, this baisa so that we can be able to have a school. We will be bringing academies from outside Kenya and bring us an exchange visit program here that will make us earn a foreign exchange. Have you thought of working together with Victor and Yama because I think you guys are neighbors? Have you thought of reaching out to him and he's a good man? His philanthropist is there in public domain too. Victor and Yama is a very good man. Actually he told me if it was not for politics we could have built that study with building somewhere else in Buddha line. And currently we are working hand in hand with him so that he can be able to come during 23rd to 23rd yet of these tournaments. And he promised us one thing that he can be able to fulfill in Kenya is to ensure that we have grass root academy and maybe one of them might be baisa let us play well hard. Yes. Wow. String it has been a fantastic show this particular afternoon talking about national football and even grass root football initiatives that he said to give back to the society and empower young people who are passionate about football and absalim.
