Did you know that Tama is voiced by Megumi Han in the anime, also Kiku is voiced by Maria Issei? And these two are better known as Gon and Killua. So in a weird way, the Wano arc of One Piece is probably the closest we will ever get to a new series of Hunter x Hunter. But that aside, hello and welcome to the Grand Line reviewer source for everything One Piece, and today we have a review of Chapter 1004, which provides us with what I think is our first truly tangible piece of hope within this whole Wano Mega Saga. Because yes, we've gotten in a few great hits on good ol' Kaido, but the bigger issue has always been that our allied forces are completely outmatched on every level, but this chapter provides a fantastic solution to that particular crippling problem. Just as subscribing to the Grand Line review will provide you with a solution to not having a consistent injection of One Piece culture straight into your YouTube feed. Pressing that beautiful red button is actually strikingly similar to eating one of Tama's dongle, because you will immediately become a member of the Grand Fleet, and if you're lucky it will involve scantily clad centaur ladies. So please do say hi in the comments below if you are a new member. Welcome. I actually don't want to start with the Tama section though, because unfortunately while this chapter was incredibly solid all around, Oda did what Oda does like to Oda do, and left us with a bit of a cliffhanger right on the final page. Ten people, that's pretty intriguing. Primarily because ten is a larger number than nine. So we have a new player in the Onigashima raid, or at least we might, it's hard to tell. And I have to say that the Oda silhouette work in this panel is quite brilliant, because I'm genuinely a bit stumped as to who it is. It doesn't give too much away, all I have are really super vague assumptions, and I like that because I think it's quite a difficult thing to pull off. Provided we've already met this character that is, otherwise, well, it's supremely easy to pull off. There's really only two clues to work with though. The first is the general facial structure, which I want to say leans on the side of Oda's more feminine designs, and in addition to that we have a long strand of something falling from their head, which could be anything from hair to some sort of decoration, and even in the one piece world, earlobes. Oh, it's clearly an owl. Just look at those giveaway earlobes. And L is finally back from the moon, and as his first act of God of this world, he has decided to mourn over Kinamon's broken and defeated body. Hmm, seems legit. Earlobe jokes aside, though I feel like the first contender most people would jump to is obviously Hiori. Her design features these trademark strands of hair on the side that would very easily fit with the silhouette, and she is currently one of the only unaccountable primary characters of Wanner, and we haven't seen her for an awfully long time, not since she refused to meet up with Mama and the Vassals for, well honestly really strange and less than believable reasons. So I can imagine a situation where Hiori is enacting her own plan to help out, finds Kinamon and everyone else, sees them for the first time in literal decades, and yes, hence all the, the crying and everything, or at least I think she's crying. And I'd be very much on board with this because I'm keen for Hiori to do, well, then to do something, just anything. She's very much the weirdest factor of Wanner thus far, and I would like to believe that she's on her own mission, and that's happening in the background, and you know, we're just unaware of it. I also think it would be slightly strange if Hiori was not present for the big climax of the entire Megaraak, considering how integral she's been sort of. I mean, Hiori thus far has had this quite Viola-esque role in the story, but even then Viola was pretty deeply involved in the finale of Dressrosa, so we've surely got to get Hiori in there somehow, even if she's not this particular figure. But Hiori is certainly not the only candidate, and I would like to throw Suru's name into the ring as well. Well, you know who it could be actually, when, when was the last time we saw Suru? Because she had a big nose, and this person also has a big nose, so that's kind of perfect. I mean, no, Suru's current design doesn't fit as nicely into the silhouette as Hiori's would, but she is also currently unaccounted for as well, and I believe we last saw her when Okabora Town was burned down, so it's not like she has anywhere to go, you know, a home or something. Plus, it would add a lot of weight to the idea that this figure is focusing on Kinamon, because they still have yet to reunite with each other. So after 20 years, the first time she sees her husband is this broken, defeated mess, and that sounds even more powerful than the Hiori idea actually, but if you wanted a truly wild card crackpot idea, then we can also go with Toki. I don't care if it's been stated that she's dead. Unfortunately, this is one piece, and if we haven't seen a body, then I'm not believing anything, especially when the character in question can quite literally travel through time at will. I don't want to get too deeply into the Toki thoughts though, but it is strange to have this time-travelling element involved, and then not really make use of it beyond sending Kinamon and company into the future. Anyway, that's just something that's going to continue to bug me personally, probably until the end of Wano. Enough of that though, let's talk about the emerging MVP of Wano, which is clearly Tama. What this chapter did really well is kick me straight in the nostalgia balls by bringing me back to very early Wano. Characters like Tama, Speed, Gazelle Man, all of these people who haven't really been relevant since 2018, because yeah, I'm looking it up right now, and that's when Speed was first introduced, chapter 917, which was published in September 2018. It's 2021 now. So we have this really weird situation on our hands, because due to how long Wano has gone on for, I'm actually capable of feeling nostalgia for the current arc. This is a new feeling for me with one piece, but I must say that I'm glad that these Act 1 pieces are finally coming back into play. With that said though, I'm still waiting for some sort of payoff from Urashima because he was someone that we really needed to take all those chapters to showcase, but otherwise, this is fantastic. And I'm particularly enjoying seeing Speed again, as well as being reminded that Speed is actually a headliner. I'd very much sort of forgotten about that. She just seemed so, how shall I put this, completely irrelevant compared to every other headliner, like you know, Basil Hawkins. But then again, I'm pretty sure that Jin Rummy was also a headliner, so the standards for that position must not be quite that high. In regards to Tama though, what I'm very much enjoying is seeing a child character in one piece, and in fact, manga in general, but not being completely useless and just needing to be saved. I love that Tama has this drive of her own and she is doing everything she can to affect the outcome of this raid. And just on that, Tama isn't even the only impressive child in the arc because Momonosuke has also had his moments, although he does definitely fall cleanly into the needing to be saved category, unfortunately. What I'd like to know most of all is whose bright idea it was not to bring Tama or at least farm her ability in advance. So many key people knew about it, but I guess it doesn't matter, she's here now. And in doing so, Tama actually completes the Go metaphor that was used to describe the current situation in the last chapter by CP0. And it's because the basic mechanics of Go involve capturing your opponent's stones in order to earn those delicious points. But one thing to remember is that Tama's abilities will only work on the gifters, I mean, assumedly. We still have yet to see her try using the ability on a legit Zouin user. However, the pleasures, waiters, Oniwabonshu, etc. Like all the figures who make up the bulk of the beast pirates will still be immune from such thing. However, the gifters are generally the strongest among C's lower ranked riffraff. So converting the majority of them is still a huge win, especially managing to convert Brascola. How can we lose with a gorilla fist? The answer is we cannot. What's going to happen is he's going to show us all the proper way to grow a gorilla, which is from the fist and Kaida was going to forfeit. It's not really that simple. But something else Tama really has going for her is One Piece doing what One Piece really does best and focusing on generational storytelling. It's quite easy to get lost in Luffy's generation because, well, that's our main focus, but now that they're old enough for making their own way in the world, we have another upcoming generation below them with figures like Tama, Momonosuke, Markino's baby and all of the other childlings of the world, which I really like because it gives the series a very organic feel, like time is genuinely moving. And speaking of time moving, just a shameless plug, but if you'd like to see 5,000 years of One Piece history summed up in roughly 20 minutes and please do check out this video, it will give you all of the wonderful generational insights. Also, Usopp and Tama, well, they just happen to be the best thing ever. This is very much what I was hoping for when they came across to each other and the Sniper extraordinaire did not disappoint, nor did our navigator actually, who managed to get in a pretty fine strike on Ulti. A Thunder Lance Tempo as well, the famed attack that was used to defeat Kalifar back on any slobby.  Granted, sure, she is still out of her league against a Toby Roper member, but at the same time, that's what people were saying all the way back in any slobby as well. Nami versus a superhuman assassin Rokushiki master, nah, there's no way she stands a chance. So I'm hoping that the matchup of Nami and Usopp versus Ulti in page one continues and they get to redeem themselves from their initial head-on failure. Although I feel like for Nami to actually beat Ulti, we're definitely going to need some help from Zeus. Moving to a truly great part of the chapter now, we have Frankie versus Sasaki. And at this point, I've long since forgotten how much I love seeing Frankie in combat. He's such an unfortunate straw hat in many, many ways because he excels at battle, but almost never gets the opportunity to show that off. But to me, he never disappoints in a one-on-one fight. Really, how many one-on-one fights has Frankie even had? I can think of three off the top of my head. You've got Nero for gross and your pink. And then I feel like every other situation is just the straw hats are fighting and Frankie also happens to be there. I'm absolutely loving this fight against Sasaki though. General Frankie had some great choreography throwing around at triceratops and whipping out his sword in the end. Thus reminding us that Frankie, yes, is technically a swordsman in addition to everything else because that's what I love most about Frankie. Nothing is off limits to him. His whole mantra is, Give me all of the weapons. And so he doesn't stick to any particular style of combat. It makes him extremely versatile in a way because opponents can never quite predict what he's going to come out with. They just need to be prepared for anything and everything. I mean, you've got swords, guns, lasers, even nipple lights. And there is just, there's no way to shield against all four. Although I do hope that by the end of this, Frankie does get an opportunity to fight Sasaki with his more a more standard body, I suppose we'll call it because General Frankie is cool and all but I think that Frankie's regular body would make for some much cooler art. Moving to another Tobiropa clash or well sort of we have an update on Sanji and he is still entrapped. Although this did come with the nice fact that he had completely decimated every male member in the room but was predictably powerless against any of the female combatants and as much as many online fans are going to give Sanji a lot of crap about this stating he's ruining the rage and everything. All I can really say is good on him for sticking to his mantra. To me, it's always admirable to see someone sticking to their beliefs especially in tough situations but Sanji does also have one very particularly intriguing panel where if I'm not mistaken, he is seeding some pure hype for a certain Niko Robin and in general there's very interesting renewed focus on Robin in these later stages of Wano actually and I want to believe that it is building to some sort of climax and here we are very potentially laying some more groundwork for a maybe eventual Robin versus Black Maria style scenario. Yes. Oh man, the Robin hype is very very real but the question is do I dare to hope because I've just been hurt so so many times before but really this chapter is exactly what I was looking for at this point in time. After the three back to back chapters on the roof I was really craving a look back on the situation as a whole so I'm glad we had zero focus on Kaido in the worst generation. Although with that said that does still leave us with that lingering tease of Kaido's hybrid form once again portrayed primarily through Oda Silhuet. While I'm on this topic though I did notice that quite a few people commented on last week's review stating that this is Kaido's awakened form rather than his hybrid form which I guess it might be possible. It's still far from the simplest explanation though and I am a big fan of Occam's Razor where the simplest explanation is almost always the correct one especially when you have a character like Trafalgar Law quite blatantly staying could this be Kaido's hybrid form? Question mark? Because remember that one piece is a fictional story and Law's dialogue does not exist in isolation it also exists to inform the readers of what's happening. With that said I won't outright state that this isn't Kaido's awakening but at the same time there is a far far more straightforward explanation and it's query that I suppose we'll get an answer to at some stage but not now. However something we can do now is examine the question of whether or not Razor has conqueror's Haki in this video right here. This was a very fun discussion to make and I look forward to seeing you over there.


Everyone has directly experienced the cognitive decline of a family member. Whether it's your grandparents, parents, brothers, sisters, it's one of the worst things to ever happen. On the lesser end, someone having memory issues, forgetting conversations they had mere days ago, to extreme circumstances of violent behavior and not knowing who they are. In August of 2019, about a year and a half ago, I posted a vlog where I visited my grandmother's doctor to ask him to take her off certain medications I believed. I knew we're contributing to her cognitive decline. I warned my mother that my grandma wasn't going to be around too much longer taking that medication in that environment, following that diet.  Now, unfortunately, my prediction came true and my grandmother needs 24-7 care, so hopefully I can help someone willing to listen and their loved one can enjoy many more years of their life. So these five are elements that I've gone over in past videos, especially the six basics of health. Today specifically, we're going to apply them minimally, invasively to an elderly person's lifestyle. Number one, most importantly, get them off any prescribed medications, notably statins. This requires an understanding of the drug, what it does, and most people just listen to everything the doctor says as gospel, as opposed to researching it on their own. Now, back around that same time a year and a half ago, I made a video titled, Statins Explained in 5 Minutes. If you want the detailed explanation about what they do, check out that video.  But this isn't limited to statins. Many medications, as well as chemicals, pollutants, additives in those medications, contribute to cognitive decline. Another video I did was on allergy medications such as Benadryl, which most people think is harmless, causing memory loss. Now, millions and millions of people taking these harmless over-the-counter drugs. You have antidepressants, antipsychotics, antiparkinsins, bladder medications, epilepsy, you know, I think probably what, 50, 70, how many millions and millions and millions of Americans are taking these medications without understanding the true negatives. Second, we want to reduce Wi-Fi exposure. And this is more of a minimally invasive solution as opposed to a complete lifestyle fix. I was watching a video on the Greek island Icaria the other day and they all live to like 100 years old. Clean air, clean food, clean water, low radiation levels. If you can get the person to wear protective clothing, which is what I wear all day every day, Wi-FiShielding.com, T-shirt and underwear particularly, and then sleep in a bed canopy to protect their head, brain function, recovery, they shouldn't have to change too many lifestyle factors, although, you know, it's maybe 60, 70% of the way there. This will significantly reduce the oxidative damage being caused to their brain and organs by various sources of radio frequency radiation. I have a whole playlist of many, many hours if you want more details, which may apply to your specific circumstance. Third is to increase protein consumption. My grandma actually got ahold of some of the best bars that we make on Frankie's Free Range Foods, which have way protein in them, but they actually kind of taste like cake. My uncle stopped by the warehouse and I gave him some to try, but he actually ended up visiting my grandma and she wasn't eating anything, but she ate those, which brings us to elderly people over-consuming sweets, baked goods, and junk food. Protein is high in B vitamins, which is crucial, the most important nutrient arguably for brain function. Way protein in particular happens to be a concentrated source of B vitamins because it's like drinking a cup of milk in one or two spoons of powder. I mean, if you look at the diet of any elderly person, they are lacking animal protein, and even if you do include it in their diet, because of the radiation in the environment, you know, their organs might not be able to digest the food, so you might have to include protein-digesting enzymes such as pepsin, trypsin, and chymotrypsin, but the dairy, the whey protein, especially grass-fed from a local farm, is an approachable way for someone that isn't too keen on eating meat. You know, you could even make cookies and various baked goods and sweets that do have, or even just making cookies with protein powder is a great way to get an elderly person with a sweet tooth to get those B vitamins for their brain, which ties directly to number four, balancing the omega-3 to omega-6 ratios in the diet. As we spoke about that Greek island earlier, you know, this is a matter of minimally invasive changes to a person's lifestyle diet, not an entire revamp that will not stick.  High omega-6, particularly linoleic acid, contained in seed oils, soybean canola, it's very high in those baked goods, those processed foods, causes massive amounts of oxidative stress, makes the cholesterol molecules in your body inflamed. It's the single most damaging thing you can consume outside of direct toxins and pollutants on a cellular level. And it counteracts some very important nutrients needed for brain function, omega-3 fatty acids. As we get older, you know, the body has a harder time with basic metabolic functions. You know, so the more we're able to remove the negatives and include the positives, there is less margin of error for disease. In this case, eliminating the oxidative damage from omega-6 and adding omega-3, so our body isn't stressed to synthesize it. The omega-6 is inhibiting our body's natural ability to make omega-3 from other fatty acids, and by lacking omega-3 in the diet, it's just too many negatives and not enough positives. Number five is grounding. We are made of energy. Our body contains electrons which are negatively charged particles that carry energy. Free radicals, which cause oxidative stress, have an uneven number of electrons, and we can't remove those easily from our body. Humans are meant to be in direct contact with the earth through natural materials, barefoot on the ground, leather moccasins touching a tree. Your body will discharge excess electrons into the earth, and you become neutral. When you're disconnected, like I am right now on the second floor of my house, you build up electrons that cause more oxidative damage. For an elderly person, you know, this can mean taking a walk on a natural trail, you know, simply grounding their bed sheet or whatever, and I think if you even look it up, they have grounded hospital beds, and when I had jaw surgery, they actually put me in a room with lead walls. So these doctors, these people hire up, know very well about certain secrets. It's just who they use them on. I guess they have to like them, or they have to have connections. I don't know. I've done videos on grounding. The bed canopy that I have on Wi-Fi shielding is actually grounded, and I also have grounding straps available on the website that you can just put on your sneakers or regular shoes. So when you go hiking, you don't need, you know, some type of expensive natural leather footwear. From that minimally invasive perspective, educate them and their family on the medications they use. Get them a bed canopy, reduce their cell phone usage, turn off Wi-Fi devices if possible. Add some whey protein to a milkshake, their ice cream, their baked goods. Get them to have steak a couple nights a week. Homemade instead of processed foods, add fish a few times per month. That will both reduce the Omega-6 and increase the Omega-3. Take them walking at least once per week or, you know, ground radiators, copper pipes, and houses. But, you know, if you're in that city environment, it can make it difficult to do that. That's why I've done several different videos explaining all of these in depth because there are nuances you need to know. And one thing I didn't touch on was, like pollutants like aluminum and deodorant or cooking devices. There really is so much that you need to do. But, you know, if you watch my YouTube channel, if you go through my videos, if you have a good understanding of health and lifestyle, you can notice and pinpoint glaring issues.

Thanks Tracey and firstly thank you very much for putting the conference on. But I'll talk about Brown's Range. This is after seven years I'm proud to say that those trucks are about to hit our site. We're going to start mining on the 1st of June. So after seven years of our initial discovery we're actually going to start mining at Brown's Range. In 2018 we're actually going to be supplying heavy rare earths to the market so it's been a great achievement. One thing I realised was that sometimes when you talk about heavy rare earths some people try to work out what have you got and this is just a simple pie chart and I know we've got a mandarin pole at the back representing Linus. What they have we don't and vice versa so they're very dominant in NDPR and in our deposit we're very dominant in dysbrosium and terbium so we've got a very rich and healthy heavy rare earth deposit. Again after seven years it's nice to have these pictures up, they're ugly pictures from a technical perspective but we've actually taken the top soil off two of our deposits that we'll be mining from the 1st of June so on the right hand side is Gambit West and on the bottom left hand side is Wolverine. In our large scale operation Wolverine will actually deliver about 75% of our full life of project ore but for the pilot plant and our definition of pilot plant is very different to what some people have been talking about. We're going to be building a pilot plant that's 10% the size of our full scale operation so the front end of the plant will be 60,000 tonnes per annum and we'll be producing 573 tonnes of contained TREO and a mixed rare earth carbonate. Why are we doing this? Well the full scale operation is a $329 million billed and probably somewhere between $400 to $500 million of financing and all the numbers I talk about are in Australian dollars. Our market cap in 2015 was about $30 to $40 million so it was almost impossible to consider how could we possibly finance that given the current prices of rare earths. So do we sit on our backsides, what do we do to take this project forward and again what's really critical is about convincing the market of a new supply source. Our ore is hosted in a Xenotime it's different to the ironic clays that currently deliver heavy rare earths into the market so we came up to the conclusion that we'd changed the way in which we'd go about, we'd go and develop this project. Just quickly I won't mention any words that some have done before us but more importantly I think we've got to look at what the Chinese are doing and how many vehicles and units they're putting out and I think that's significantly more than what we're talking about in some of the other countries around the world that produce EVs. There's the supply and demand dynamics again one of the challenges we face is what are the numbers so the supply of heavy rare earths all come from well significantly come from China and then we hear about this illegal mining and there's a number of definitions within that illegal mining. So you've got some companies who have got licences to extract the rare earths but they exceed their quotas and then you've also got a cottage market where you've got people that are taking wheelbarrow and grabbing a ton of rock and separating it at their homes if you like. So it's very difficult to really analyse the supply and the demand is defined with the drive forward of the EV demand and there's a gap. In the red is what we'll be delivering from our pilot plant in full scale operation so what you can see there will be a need to have more than one browns range in production. Price, price it's at the moment about 182 US dollars a kilo for dysprosium. Forecasts there have it sort of going anywhere up to 325 dollars. So in the magnet industry we've talked about back calculating what they can afford of dysprosium going into a permanent magnet and that's about 700 US a kilo. Now what we suffered in 2011 was this absolutely outrageous price that dysprosium went to 4,000 dollars a kilo and again today I hear about people talking about price in elasticity. I think we should add the terms price in elasticity within a relevant range because at 4,000 dollars a kilo it had a direct impact on the end price of a vehicle if you like. So there is a price that all participants in the supply chain can actually win and so we'd be very happy at somewhere anywhere up to 700 US a kilo. Definitely higher than what it is today. So we're positioned for success, what a beautiful picture. So we're located in the northern part of western Australia. Projects straddles at WA Northern Territory border and we also have two other projects. All of them are xenotime hosted heavy rare earth projects. So on the 18th of April this year the board approved the project to go ahead. It's 10% of the scale of the full operation. Now one thing when you go to a smaller scale operation is you lose economies of scale. We've offset that with two things. The ore at the top 30 to 50 metres of our ore body is actually 70% higher than the average run of mine grade for the full project. So that has a significant benefit to the project. And secondly we will benefit from getting cash back from the research and development grants that the Australian federal government gives. So 43.5 cents in the dollar comes back to us from our CAPEX and OPEX. And I heard I think in the early panel today what are people getting and receiving from governments if you like. Northern Minnows has received $23.6 million to date from our federal government's R&D scheme as part of the work we've done. I mean to date Northern Minnows has spent nearly $100 million on exploration and developing the project where it is today. You do get scared about what the size of these markets are and how much investment you've actually got to do to take these into production. Building our three year pilot plant will refine our DFS and then assuming all is well and prices are stronger we'll plan to build our full scale operation. I'll just explain why a continuous pilot plant, it's so critical in the industrial mineral space is to deliver product to market on spec. I mean you can do it in a lab or a small scale pilot plant and get the confidence of your off-takers but nothing beats actually putting relevant amounts of product into the market. And that's what we'll be doing as part of our pilot plant. Financing we've had to think seriously outside the box because as again one of the guys at the panels earlier talked about investment bankers going and the like we've had to really think outside the box to work out how we're going to fund this project. We're doing it through a number of elements, $29.5 million through traditional equity placements, $32 million via an R&D financing facility so when you put in your tax return in Australia we run a July to June tax year you get your cash back as part of that process we'll be putting in a debt factoring facility so that that helps our cash flow getting away from a lumpy once a year refund from the government. $10 million via a sales agreement prepayment, I've had people tell us that RERs are no longer required well we did have someone that's going to give us money before we start producing so they obviously need our product and also Sino Steel are our EPC contractor who are giving us a 20% deferred payment both those last two items can be converted into equity that didn't add up to 56 because we've got to overshoot and make sure we don't have any issues. Our sales agreement is secured with a group called JFMAG so we actually have a China strategy my job is actually not the MD of UNICEF or World Peace I've got to actually make sure we return money for shareholders and so our Japanese friends who we announced an MOU with earlier in the year just didn't come up to the mark about offering us the things we needed to get the project up so you know we've got to go and get the best value for shareholders. The offtake is for 100% of all the product we produce from our pilot plant and there is no there is no first right of refusal or anything like that for the full-scale operation so it's game on for the full scale operation. JFMAG is a subsidiary of Guangdong Rear Earths Group which is one of the five players in in the rare earth heavy rare earth space in China and they are owned by a company called Guangdong Rising Asset Management who have been very active in the Australian market and they recently acquired a project a company called Panos for $1.4 billion so well known to the Australian market. We'll be based off Asia Metals and the Rudo Bureau's pricing to determine what our price will be for our products sold. We'll be shipping it out either Darwin or Windham and it'll be going to Laiangong which is a port about 400 kilometres north of Shanghai. Our process plant crush grind magnetic separation float produces end-of-time concentrate, sulfation, bait, precipitate and then produce a 52% carbonate. It'll be open pit also the last one the pilot plant's $39 million and that has already started to be constructed fabricated in China as we speak. Open pit mining $6 million because of how remote we are we're going to mine the whole three years in one hit so the guys will roll up on the 1st of June and leave by 30 November and we'll be mining 180,000 tons $6 million contract. The camp is now nearly in complete construct. I presented in China on Friday and I had to tell people that the local community was as big as the amount of delegates at the conference and you imagine people in China can't actually comprehend how such a small community exists in that part of the world. They'd probably have about 3 million people there. Tailings Dam construct so final investment decisions being made the fabrication started bulk mining will happen about 14 days time installation will happen between September and April next year and commissioning research development for three months and we plan to start producing July 2018. Pretty pictures of all the great guys. One thing for us in terms of we've had continuity I've been there for seven years since discovery Robin Wilson's been there for 11 years. We've had a team that's been there through the journey which has helped us with native title discussions and many other facets of the business. Our dome is 60 kilometres by 30 kilometres. We've got a massive prospect area. We've only drilled 10 prospects. We converted six of those into dual compliant resource reserves. Our geologists have identified a further 170 new targets so whilst we've only got 11 in mine life we've got a further nine years that we've defined under the Jork code so that gives you 20 but we've got a massive upside here and we've got John Galt which has got higher grade which is about 150 kilometres further north and we've got Boulder Ridge to the south of us so we've really taken a position in this area. Over Christmas we raised money at a 91% premium it was probably the best capital raised on this Australian stock exchange. So not a bad effort a lot of brokers don't like us when you raise money at those premiums completing the balance of the 10 million placement we've gone through all those other items there and capital structure $86 million dominated by Chinese on our share register. Without the Chinese I'd be talking about rock chips and standing here and talking about a dream. They've helped us fund this project to get where it is today and I thank them greatly but whilst we're dominated by Chinese investors the board still dictates the business plan and the way forward and if you have a look at the business plans we've run over the last seven years they've never been impacted by major shareholders they believe in what we think is the right way to commercialise this project and it's a bit of a dream building an Australian Greenfield discovery so very rarely do you get an opportunity to be part of actually discovering a project seven years ago in terms of taking a rock chip to now mining it in two weeks and producing in July next year so thank you very much


Hi, this is Swapil Bhatia and we are here at Dock and Con in San Francisco and today we have with us Wendy from VMware Before we kind of start talking about all the technology stuff. Can you tell us a bit about yourself? What do you do at VMware? Sure, so I run product marketing for our cloud native apps and essentially I work with customers I work with partners and Really take their input and incorporate their feedback into our product portfolio So you get feedback from the customers and then it shows you kind of work as a bridge between Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, really understanding what their challenges are and you know taking that back into our product teams and Making sure that they understand what the customers are facing and making sure that you know They have the feedback they need in order to design better products to serve our customers Because if you look at VMware, you know, you are the guy who brought the whole you know virtual machine kind of you know Movement of revolution, whatever way you call it and now we are living in the age of container realizations and Kubernetes is everybody's talking about Kubernetes. So and I think VMware has a product as well as project around Kubernetes and Containerization as well, which is called PKS. I guess. Yes. Yes, people to container service. Yeah PKS So so I wrote about it earlier, but anything new that is happening these days in terms of PKS Yeah, lots of things. So we announced PKS last year at VMworld and it's a jointly developed product between Pivotal of VMware in collaboration with Google and You know since we announced the product last year, we've gotten a lot of really good feedback a good traction with customers and You know the challenges that they're facing with deploying Kubernetes putting it into production and operationalizing at 24 by 7 and Through that feedback process You know, we really focused on how to address those types of challenges with PKS really Focusing on how to make Kubernetes easy right for our customers to deploy and operationalize So, you know, we introduced this concept of constant compatibility Which is essentially a way for our customers to receive the latest innovations from the Kubernetes community So we are committed to delivering the latest Release that is on GKE. That's runs on GKE. And so we call that constant compatibility and when we released PKS is supported 1.9 right out the gate and You know, we're really excited about the fact that we could bring that latest, you know innovation to our customers and that's fully supported by VMware and Pivotal as well Other feedback we heard from customers are very similar to some of the user surveys that we saw from CNCF, which is You know securing containers, logging, monitoring, networking, storage We heard very similar challenges from our customers as well and what they're looking for is really a product that packages all these You know capabilities in one package for them to easily install and deploy in their environment So that's essentially what PKS Deliver to our customers, which is a set of functionalities with networking through NSXT that's embedded into the product Includes a container registry, which you know addresses some of their concerns around security with formability scanning and You know, we add a Kubernetes and Bosch to address some of the lifecycle management high availability customer management needs that they have and We just started shipping PKS in February and we have some tech preview period late last year and You know, it's it's been a great Journey for us in terms of taking this product to our customers getting the feedback and You know really looking at how to address some of these pain points head-on yeah when we talk about Kubernetes Cloud Foundry is one of the Jumps that came out of you know pivotal or VMware. I mean, it's the big, you know giant, you know kind of you know So it's CFCR which used to be Kubo where we know you brought with Kubernetes and Bosch together Does that also play a new role in in PKS? Absolutely. Yeah, so PKS consists of Kubernetes on Bosch and that used to be You know Kubo in the Cloud Foundry Community and it was recently renamed to CFCR exactly container runtime. So CFCR is a core component of PKS and That's included as part of the product that we offer and it's been, you know, really Instrumental in helping our customers address Some of the lifecycle management issues for for Kubernetes. So through Bosch for example, our customers are able to You know, essentially address some of the HA capabilities. It has, you know, health-checking mechanisms built in and It will automatically bring up VMs when the Kubernetes cluster is needed and you know, it just has a lot of Automated capabilities built in that, you know customers don't really have to worry about right You said that the PKS was announced a lot at the VMware VMware So when is the next, you know, what is the cadence of PKS and what should we expect from the next because Kubernetes moves at a very fast pace Very fast pace. Yeah, exactly. So we The plan to release PKS when new versions of Kubernetes come out. So You know, we're definitely looking forward to keeping up with delivering that Latest release with constant compatibility to our customers. So the next version will have the latest version of Kubernetes and we're also Adding more enhancements around security for our customers really enhancing some of the networking capabilities as well and adding more flexible topology support and You know also looking at integrating more VMware tools so that our customers can better manage Their Kubernetes clusters. So a couple of examples include Wayfront and what we did was work with a Wayfront team and Be able to really make a seamless for customers to be able to use Wayfront To monitor Kubernetes clusters and the applications that they're running in their clusters with real-time Statistics for them to actually, you know, see what's going on and get a lot of analytics around that so they could use Wayfront to do that and We also work with a be realized team. They have a product called be realized login site and it has tremendous amount of you know, really powerful logging capabilities where customers can Use tagging and aggregation to collect that log information and be able to present it to Operators who are managing the clusters to give them really deep dive Analysis what's going on in that cluster. So there will be more integration With VMware products So that customers can use Those tools in their environment for Kubernetes as well. When is the release coming out? You know, the next release coming out is pks 1.1 Mm-hmm, and it will have support for the latest Kubernetes version, which is Kubernetes 1.10 So again delivering to that constant compatibility promise to our customers and enabling our customers to leverage the latest innovation from the Kubernetes community We're also incorporating more VMware support around monitoring and and logging so Two of the things that we're adding is way front integration where it's a really a seamless experience for our customers to use Wayfront and Click on the pks tile essentially and have a fully automated experience that they could Instantly manage the Kubernetes clusters and the applications running In those clusters and be able to get real-time statistics on You know, what's going on in those clusters? The second tool that we're into incorporating is be realized log insight and that essentially allows our customers to use aggregation tagging to get some really deep dive kind of Analysis through be realized log insight into their Kubernetes clusters as well. Yeah, so As you integrate these components, is it based on the customer feedback? Or is it based on VMware's own requirement to move to the new market? What is the driving force number one? The second is that what are the pain points that you see from the customer? No, you can separate these two questions or if it makes sense we can Yeah, so it's definitely based on customer feedback You know and this these feedback are essentially, you know, things around container security Better connectivity You know addressing the operational needs of how do I monitor this? How do I keep it running 24 by 7? many customers have developer teams all across the world and They definitely want to make sure that it's running around the clock So they have a team of people who are Dedicated to ensuring that their developers have the best productivity experience so that they ensure that These Kubernetes clusters are up and running, you know for them at all times so it's definitely based on a lot of customer input and Pain point is usually around the actual experience of deploying Kubernetes and making it easy for them And you know frequently what we see is that in the enterprise there are multiple teams that are responsible for different parts of that the infrastructure and you know, not only the VMware aspect of it, but also the you know that development and you know the DevOps aspect of it and the operations and sometimes it's a whole different team as well So it's really important to make sure that each team's needs are being met and that they have different pain points around security compliance governance Monitoring logging all these are different pain points that each different group faces So we're definitely very you know well in touch with all the different groups that need to be successful and Really listening to what they need not only today, but what they are Looking for in the future as well, you know six months, you know later They're already projecting, you know, I'm gonna need this I'm gonna increase the number of pods I run from this number to this bigger number. So therefore, I'm gonna need that You know, we're gonna run microservices. So can you help us with a roll map to enable microservices? They're already bringing up requirements such as STL for example for service mesh So, you know all those requirements are coming into VMware and you know, we're really working closely with pivotal as well to look at how to address The pain points today as well as what they need for the future and Incorporating that into a road map and jointly developing towards that road map so that customers Essentially will have what they need, you know, not only today, but also, you know in the future as well And it's really about intersecting their needs with our development roadmap Yeah, and things are changing so fast that six months looks like, you know, it's eternity. Yeah, exactly And since you're talking about future and new things these days, you know a new Buzzwords keep popping up on weekly basis. So serverless, you know, is one of the new buzzwords So when you do talk about, you know, future proofing as well as customer feedback I recall that six months ago. We were debating what is serverless and now there are use cases that people are using in production So from VMware's perspective, what is your, you know, strategy a plan for serverless computing? So we're doing a lot in various open-source communities today And you know, it's a great way for us to engage with the community You know, not only from a user perspective, but also from different vendors perspective and where People see, you know, in terms of what are the use cases and what are some of the higher priority Pain points that the community should focus on So through projects like this patch, which is an open-source serverless project that VMware Introduced and through open fast, which is also something that, you know, VMware's open-source office is driving we're engaging with the community to, you know, kind of listen to the feedback and the use cases and For customers who are already running serverless in production We're getting a better understanding of what are those pain points and are these use cases something that other enterprises can leverage as well It's something that, you know, many enterprises out there can leverage for perhaps, you know, different types of business, right? So we're definitely engaged from that level and we are also having some Conversations with customers who are, you know, more advanced and, you know, they've already formulated their thinking around serverless To look at how serverless can be deployed on PKS, for example. So We're definitely, you know, working through multiple Communities that way. So our customer community, the open-source community as well as working with Pivotal jointly and Simulating that serverless architecture That, you know, we could deliver to the market. And since we are talking about buzzwords in the future Machine learning and the Kubernetes, you know, Kubeflow is there. So What's going on in that space? Yeah, we hear a lot about machine learning as Definitely some companies are further ahead than other companies So we see a variety of customers who are asking us about machine learning and the questions range from what is machine learning to You know, how would I, how would I use machine learning in my business and what can I do for my business? To customers who have already played with some form of machine learning already or attended talks by other companies And they're very inspired by the potential of serverless and the potential of machine learning and they're very excited by it So we have a very broad range of conversations with our customers today, and I think that The, I mean on VMWare's part, we're still evaluating How could we enable the mass market with machine learning and make it easy for our customers? So, but you know, we're definitely engaged on a machine learning Conversation, you know, with our customers with different communities as well And like you said, these buzzwords are popping up everywhere I think there's a lot of curiosity for enterprises to learn about it And also to think about how they can incorporate it into their environment and drive business outcome from it And since you also work in the customer feedback kind of area Personally, what are the areas that you interest you and you're like, oh, this is the area which you know, is kind of, you know A lot of things are happening in this space, you know, a lot of, you know, communities active Yeah, I'm interested in areas that help our customers drive higher productivity So that includes a lot of different things that, you know, we just kind of touched on as well But it's really about for me, you know, also helping our customers adopt those technologies While these technologies are all very exciting.  So I think there are a lot of Organizational issues as well that I think, you know, we put a lot of thought into in terms of, you know We have this great technology that's happening in various open source communities But how do we enable our customers to actually leverage those technology in a production environment With their staff trained and be able to run and support it, you know, 24 by 7 So I think that's another angle of the challenge that I'm personally very interested in. I love the technologies And there's a lot of new exciting things coming and I, you know I try to tune into all of them, but it's really then about, okay Then how do we take all this and then make it real for the enterprise and deliver business outcomes for them? And that's a whole set of challenge that I'm looking into and following and Understanding better in terms of, you know, how to really, you know, enable these open source innovations in a production capacity Yeah, because technology itself is of no use unless and till it's helping somebody in one way or the other So you have to be able to production. Yeah, you have to be able to run it in production So we talked about, we talked about communities, we talked about pks, we talked about containers and everything Let's talk about you for a while So when you are not doing all this tech stuff, what do you do in your free time? What's your hobbies? I love to run. I play tennis. I love to hike and I volunteer with Different organizations when I have time and I love to read. I think I'm normal average You know person just like anybody else. So what kind of organizations do you volunteer for? I volunteer with Stanford and they have a Program called SEED and it's essentially a program that helps emerging countries From, you know, offering pro bono consulting around business models to You know marketing to how to reach the audience You know, helping them create business plans to be successful how to leverage technologies So there's a huge need for People who, you know, understand the business and the technology aspects to help You know smaller businesses in emerging countries to be successful So I volunteer with that organization and have worked with businesses in Africa for example, which is where they tend to focus on and You know, it's just really fascinating for me to understand you know the The innovation and the creativity that's happening in those countries and people beginning to you know really leverage technologies to You know run their business as well and they have a whole different set of challenges from the infrastructure to You know, just the the literacy levels in some countries So it's a very fascinating way for me to engage with a whole different world of people who you know, I think could definitely use You know, a lot of the talent and expertise that that we have in Silicon Valley Mm-hmm and help them, you know change the way they run business and change their lives You know at the end of the day, so it's it's fun for me So do you like travel there and meet the no, it's all virtual. Yeah, it's all virtual. Yeah, okay and have you had any experience, you know that oh there is This company or this individual is doing you know, this is exciting thing but they are restricted by the technology or Have you came across any exciting use, you know cases we're like yeah, I worked with one school in Ghana and They are trying to figure out how to keep kids in school because what happens in Ghana is that The utility is not very well regulated So the electricity for example that the cost of electricity could spike in any given month Okay, and it's it's really unpredictable. So when the electricity prices spike The the families tend to take their kids out of school and the school can't afford to run their school because it gets very expensive. So They launched a program through Stanford to find out more about How they could essentially better manage the situation and How they could reach out to more parents and keep their kids in school and how to address the problems of You know unpredictable cost in running the infrastructure for the school So I worked with that school and you know, we came up with a lot of different ideas You know in terms of how to you know that one of the things that mentioned is that most people we have mobile phone So we talked about how to you know reach their audience through mobile advertising promotion social media And what are some of the messages to messages that they could potentially leverage to keep their keep the families and keep their kids in school We also talked about fundraising. Mm-hmm. So I gave them a variety of different ways that they could potentially use You know crowd sourcing to do some fundraising So there were a lot of ideas that were exchanged and you know, I think You know, they they were very enthusiastic about some of the ideas and we worked together on implementing some of them So you know so far, you know, we're seeing some good results. So yeah, it's pretty average Do you bring some of this to to VMware to say let's start an innovation center at VMware to help these VMware has a huge foundation already Yeah, and and just thousands of employees volunteer through different charities, okay And it's a it's a quite robust foundation. It's very very active VMware Foundation, okay, and employees volunteer, you know, we just did a volunteer event in my office not too long ago Where you know, we we packaged, you know, things for for different charity as and You know, it's two three hours But it was you know a lot of fun for the team to come come together and do something that you know It's it's goodwill and it's for charity. So we do quite a bit of that actually at VMware as well. So It's really a culture of giving back and a lot of employees participate in it So, you know, it's something that you know, I think everyone should Do and be a part of the community either here locally or abroad, you know Because there are just so much need out there and we could all do some good with you know Just a few hours of hard time. So when I did not even know about these engagements, so it's always nice to talk, right? It's always nice to talk. I think we're all talking about work and technology most of the time at these conferences So this is really unusual to talk about personal interest.   So thanks. Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. Yes. Thank you I'll see you again at the next open source conference. Absolutely. Absolutely. Thank you. Thank you


What's good Josh your boy watch back here again with another gameplay commentary. She's tired of the video Basically, I was Doing too well on my team to the point where someone had to make the comment that I am a virgin Because I was doing well at Call of Duty You know what I Won't care with that I'm okay with that. So you'll see the gameplay. I was going off. I was literally chilling wasn't even trying in Unexpectedly I was just smacking the other team So of course when you do well and anything you I guess you spend so much time on it Did you definitely don't have time to interact with women? So yeah Your boy Ross is a almost a 30 year old virgin out here, man. So yeah, man. If you get a call of duty There's a good chance.


Within our income tax equation, we're still focused on line one, that being income. Remembering that the first half of the income tax equation is in essence an income statement, although an unusual one, we've got the income up top. Then we have the equivalent of the expenses or deductions which are a little bit strange in terms of the comparison to a normal income statement to get us down to the equivalent of net income, which in this case is taxable income. Our goal for taxes is flipped on its head. It's basically the opposite in that we want the taxable income to be as low as possible. Therefore we want our income line to be as low as possible and our deduction lines, the equivalent of the expenses to be as high as possible. When we're thinking about our income lines, then the question is, do we have income? Is that income something that has to be included as taxable income on the tax return? Ideally, we would like to have a situation where we have income, actual income, money's coming in, but it's exempt for whatever reason for taxes so we wouldn't have to be paying taxes on it legally. Now we're talking about dividend income, which adds another level of complexity because dividend income is investment income from the distribution of a corporation to an investor and the corporation itself is a taxable entity. So when we take the dividend income, there's this double tax type of situation which could lead to another kind of component, another issue we're introduced here to, which is another set of tax rates for a particular type of income. In other words, when we get down to the taxable income, we've saw that we applied in the progressive tax system which is already complex in and of itself down here because multiple rates could be applied to the one taxable income amount depending on how much income there is. But now we also could have situations where we have types of incomes that are subject to a completely different set of progressive tax rates. And that might be the case with the dividend income because of that situation of double taxation.


Bridges are critical parts of the highway. The deck is the part of the bridge that receives a lot of wear and must be repaired quickly if defects appear. Holes in the deck can cause accidents. Also, the pounding of traffic can cause further damage to the deck. If reinforcing steel bars are exposed, they quickly rust and weaken the deck. The bridge must then be closed because it would be unsafe. It is very expensive to rebuild a bridge deck. For these reasons, it is important to perform good maintenance and quick repairs. This videotape will focus on the permanent repairs for partial depth holes and full depth holes. Partial depth holes are failures that do not go through the deck.  To repair partial depth and full depth holes, you will need the proper equipment. An air compressor with a light breaking hammer, not greater than 20 kilograms, and a blowpipe attachment to clean out the hole. A concrete power saw to cut the sides of the area to be repaired. A portable generator if you need electricity to operate the saw. A concrete mixer to prepare the concrete. And hand tools which include chisels, a trowel, a sledgehammer, wire brushes, a straightedge, a steel bar, stiff brooms, rods, shovels, buckets, and wheel barrows. For the full depth hole repair, you will need plywood forms and galvanized wire strong enough to hold the forms. You will also need wood to build the framework that holds the plywood at the bottom of the deck. A ladder will be needed in case the full depth hole repair is on a bridge where the bottom part of the bridge deck is accessible with a ladder. For the concrete use a high early strength cement. If not available use other approved cement. You will also need clean aggregate with angular stones no larger than 2 centimeters. Clean sand and water and a curing compound or fabric material to cure the concrete patch. Some linseed oil will be needed to grease the form. Let us look quickly at the procedure to repair partial depth and full depth holes. Step one, place the traffic control devices. Step two, inspect the damaged area and mark the limits of the repair. Step three, prepare the hole. Step four, prepare the concrete. Step five, place and finish the concrete. Step six, clean up the work area. Step seven, remove the traffic control devices. Now let us look at the work steps in detail. Step one, place the traffic control devices. For this repair you will have to close one traffic lane. Refer to the IRF traffic control videotape for more information. Park the truck inside the closed traffic lane and behind the barricade to protect the workers. It should be positioned to allow sufficient space for workers and equipment. Step two, inspect the damaged area and mark the limits of the repair. Tap or pound the deck area lightly with the end of a steel bar. If the concrete below the deck surface is damaged, the bar will produce a hollow sound. Continue to tap the defective area by working in a radius away from the hole until the hollow sound is replaced by a solid sound. Mark the area with chalk. Make the marked sides parallel and perpendicular to the center line of the bridge. The limits must be on good concrete. Mark your limits five to seven centimeters beyond the damaged area. Step three, prepare the hole. To start, cut along the marked edges. Use the concrete power saw to make vertical cuts about two centimeters deep. Do not cut the steel bars and do not saw beyond the corners. This could soon spoil out. If necessary, chip out the corners with a chisel and hammer. Next, break up and remove damaged portions of the concrete. Use a light jackhammer. Do not let the bit touch the reinforcing steel since it will break the bond in the area where the concrete is still good. Remove the chipped, loose material out of the way. Use compressed air to remove loose material under the exposed steel bars. If the damage extends down to the reinforcing steel or below it, make sure a space of at least two centimeters, which is slightly more than the width of a finger, exists around the reinforcing steel so that a good bond will be made between the new concrete and the steel. Then, clean the exposed reinforcing steel bars and the concrete surface inside the hole. Use a wire brush to scrape away any rust. The steel must be clean for a good bond with the patching mixture. Clean out the loose particles and sweep them away from the defective area. Dispose of them in an approved area. Use compressed air to blow all fine particles out of the hole. Inspect the hole carefully before any concrete is placed in the hole. Make sure that there is no loose material in the hole or rust on the steel bars. Also, use steel wire to retie the steel bars if necessary. If the damaged area goes through the deck, you must build and place a form to hold the concrete mixture. Make sure that the surrounding concrete and the steel bars are in good condition. If steel bars must be replaced, consult your maintenance engineer. Use wood to build the framework. Place the finished framework on top of the deck, centering it around the hole. Then, grease the wooden form with linseed oil. This will permit the new concrete to be free from the wooden form. Place the greased form on the bottom part of the bridge deck. Use a ladder if the bridge is accessible from under the bridge deck. If you cannot get to the underside of the bridge, build the form in sections. Slip each section between the steel bars to the bottom part of the bridge deck and attach them to the framework. The form should be properly wired and tied to the wooden framework. Center the wooden bar that holds the wires so that the concrete can be poured easily. Step 4. Prepare the concrete. Usually, the concrete is made with high, early-strength cement, so the bridge can be opened to traffic sooner than with regular cement. If not available, you can use regular Portland cement. Do not mix the concrete too far in advance because it will set up very quickly. Also, use only washed, angular aggregate, clean sand, and clean water. Be sure to check with your supervisor for proper proportions of cement, aggregate, sand, and water, as well as the use of special curing additives if needed. Step 5. Place and finish the concrete. To start, pre-wet the hole to make a tighter bond between the old concrete and the new concrete. Place the concrete in controlled layers so that the mix covers the exposed area without air gaps. Use your shovel to work the concrete carefully around and under the reinforcing steel and into the corners to eliminate voids. Use a trowel to finish the surface of the repair. It should be level with the existing deck surface. Check the surface with a straight edge. Use a broom to texture the surface. Drag it lightly in the same direction as the surrounding concrete surface. Lay a damp cloth over the patch to promote proper curing of the concrete. If a high, early-strength cement or a special curing additive is used, cure the patch at least two or three hours before opening the area to traffic. Otherwise, it will take three to four days for the patch to dry properly. At this time, clean the hand tools so that the concrete will not harden on them. Step 6. Clean up the work area. Start while the patch is curing. Sweep all loose material into piles. Dispose of this material at a site approved by your supervisor. Load all tools, equipment and unused material back on the truck. Check the patch to make sure the cloth remains damp. Check the patch. When the patch is cured, remove the cloth and framework before opening the repaired area to traffic. Step 7. Remove the traffic control devices. Pick them up in the reverse order of their placement. Let us review the partial depth and the full depth whole repair procedures for concrete bridge decks. Step 1. Place the traffic control devices. Follow approved procedures to make the work site safe while the repairs are being performed. Step 2. Inspect the damaged area and mark the limits of the repair. Mark your limits five to seven centimeters beyond the damaged area in good concrete. Step 3. Prepare the hole. Cut along the marked edges. Break up and remove damaged portions of concrete. Clean the exposed reinforcing steel and remove any loose material. If you are repairing a full depth hole, build and place the form. Step 4. Prepare the concrete. Do not mix it too far in advance because the concrete will set up very quickly. Step 5. Place and finish the concrete. Place the concrete in controlled layers. When you finish, place a damp cloth over the patch to promote proper curing. Step 6. Clean up the work area. Sweep all loose material into piles and dispose of that loose material properly. Step 7. Remove the traffic control devices. Pick them up in the reverse order of their placement. Follow these procedures for repairing concrete bridge deck holes to ensure long-lasting repairs.


Our students from WR Castle Elementary and I am one of the coaches along with Heather Campbell and our students this year's goal is to provide smoke detectors in the homes of all of our families in our school and they're also here today at Apple Day giving out fire safety tips to the community and fire safety hats for the kids, candy, stickers, pencils. If you don't know the steps to take in order to prevent fires from happening around you many things can happen. You could use you could lose your home you could lose certain special belongings that you love or you could use lose family members.


Hello and welcome to the International Daily Roundup by People's Dispatch, where we bring you some of the major news developments from across the globe. We begin with an update on the novel coronavirus pandemic. The number of cases has crossed a million across the world. Of these, over 750,000 are still active and more than 53,000 people have died. The United States has a quarter of the world's cases followed by Italy and Spain, which are the other countries with over 100,000 cases each. The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, or the DESA, has estimated that the global economy could decline by 1% in the year 2020, because of the pandemic. It also added that further decline may be likely if the lockdowns and restriction of movement continues without adequate fiscal support. Massive loss of jobs is also being reported across the world. In the United States, for instance, over 6.6 million people filed for unemployment claims last week. Other websites to help people register for unemployment support have reportedly crashed in several U.S. states already, with an increasing number of users. Independent estimates are reported that the U.S. alone has over 67 million workers who are at risk of layoffs because of the economic hit caused by the outbreak, of which at least 47 million jobs are said to vanish over the next few months, a situation that would be worse in the Great Depression itself. In Spain, where the spread of the virus is rivaling that of Italy, 6.65 million people have been unemployed and have requested assistance from the government so far. Even countries that are not that terribly hit by the pandemic are said to suffer. India, where the number of reported cases is around 2,400 so far, has seen the unemployment rate jump by 1.5% points, which translates to anywhere between 6 to 8 million jobs lost in the span of just a few weeks in the last quarter alone. World-over, countries are bracing for the massive surge of unemployment that the crisis could cost. Even in different countries around the world are facing a major threat to their housing as well in the middle of the pandemic. In Australia, hundreds of tenants have complained of being coerced into paying their rents. Landlords have reportedly been taking up heavy-handed measures by pushing tenants to pay their rent for March through various wage-assistance measures that the gas state and the federal government have enacted. This is despite sanctions that could arise for violating eviction and rent freeze across the country. Many tenants have been asked to evict the flats they rent, while their corporate landlords have taken measures of lobbying against the restrictions that have been imposed by different governments to protect tenants during the pandemic. Similarly, in South Africa, Azanea, an informal shag-dwelling settlement of Kato Maynard Durban was attacked by the Ithakwini Municipality authorities on Thursday. 15 shags were demolished, leaving several people homeless at a time when the lockdown has been imposed by the South African government and people have been ordered to stay home. Many shag-dwellers were also injured in the attack. A private security agency, Calvin Security, was used by the municipality for demolitions on Thursday. The army and the police, which had been ordered to assist in the implementation of the lockdown, were also involved in the illegal evictions. This is not the first eviction during the lockdown period. The South African government had ordered a moratorium on evictions during the lockdown period under enormous pressure from social justice organizations, and the country's largest shag-dwellers movement, Apalali Basemajandolu. In our infocus segment, we bring you a video feature on the legacy of the US war in Iraq. The US recently redeployed its soldiers from three bases in the country to two other bases. In our next story, earlier this week, the Indian government announced a number of amendments to Jammu and Kashmir's domicile laws. The former state of Jammu and Kashmir had its constitutionally guaranteed autonomy revoked by the Narendra Modi government and got bifurcated into two union territories that directly come under the administration of the central government. The ramp entity of Jammu and Kashmir after bifurcation continued to enjoy some limited special status and retained some of its earlier domicile laws. These domicile laws regulate settlement and residency. The earlier laws were designed to prevent any demographic changes to the state after it joined India. They blocked migrants from other parts of the country from becoming permanent presidents or being domiciled in the state. They also prevented property acquisition by outsiders. The latest amendments are set to change that. The amendments will allow any person who has lived in the newly created union territory for about 15 years, including the children of central government employees to be domiciled if their parents have resided in the state for at least 10 years. The amendment would also deem any person registered by the Relief and Rehabilitation Commissioner migrants as a Kashmiri migrant, which is a status given to those displaced because of the violence as a domiciled person. The new changes also take out quotas for domiciled persons and limit it to the lowest ranks of the bureaucracy, opening up the higher bureaucratic posts to anyone from the mainland of the country. Both pro-establishment and cessationist political movements have criticized the BJP government for making pathways to the colonization in the state.
