Item number SCP-066 Object Class, Euclid and Pettus Special Containment Procedures SCP-066 to be kept in a tungsten carbide box inside 21's high-value item storage facility. Once every month, this box must be manually inspected for damage to the interior. Footnote, SCP-066 consistently destroys any recording devices placed inside its containment box. If damage is present, SCP-066 must be moved to a new box. This task is performed via a robotic arm capable of performing the task in under three seconds. Description SCP-066 is an amorphous mass of intricately-rated thread, weighing approximately 1 kg. Strands of SCP-066 may be taken individually and manipulated. When this is done, a note on the diatonic scale, C-D-E-F-G-A-B, is produced by the object. When a set of six or more notes are produced, SCP-066 will produce an effect of very nature and duration. SCP-066 will not respond to manipulation while any effect produced by it is in progress. Prior to Incident 066-2, results have included, SCP-066 transformed to a small calico kitten for 17 minutes. The kitten exhibited significant friendliness and playfulness and appeared to be declawed and neutered. A song lasting four minutes, accused the guitar of a vocal accompaniment by a singer-songwriter. The lyrics warn the listener not to use sharp objects without parental supervision.  Notably, the tones produced prior to this effect corresponded to the opening notes of Happy Birthday. SCP-066 became responsive after said cupcake was consumed. Incident 066-2 On April 18, 2008, D-066-4437 was instructed to use a pair of scissors to remove a portion of SCP-066 for testing. However, when he began to cut it, SCP-066 rolled away from him one meter before stopping and making an unidentified squeaking sound. Before he could be provided with further instruction, D-066-4437 attempted to cut it again. SCP-066 rolled away again and produced the phrase, Are You Eric? in response. After D-066-4437 replied in a negative, SCP-066 morphed into its present state, C-File Photo, and began emitting loud, desolate staccato notes until D-066-4437 was escorted from the room. After Incident 066-2, SCP-066 began to display behavior highly inconsistent with its previous properties. SCP-066 now displays significant mobility, primarily in the form of being able to move portions of itself at very high speed. While SCP-066 is either unable or unwilling to use its ability for transportation, it will occasionally attempt to damage its containment by rubbing its strands against the side of the box, gradually wearing it down. This process appears to be unusually effective for the materials in consideration. Apart from its mobility, SCP-066 will automatically produce notes and effects in the presence of any human, regardless of whether that human interacts with SCP-066. This process takes a minimum of six seconds. In the aftermath of Incident 066-2, effects produced by SCP-066 have been included. A single bee was released near the containment, stinging D-4436 before flying away. The bee was not captured, it is unknown how the bee survived. Beethoven's second symphony was played at over 140 decibels, causing permanent deathness in three personnel, and permanent hearing damage in eight others. The room containing SCP-066 experienced a sudden and complete absence of light for five hours. People in the room reported hearing loud breathing behind their shoulders, although no source was apparent. When it is not producing anomalous effects, SCP-066 will say the name Eric constantly in a deep, masculine voice.

Used to be 25 Today is it's more like 35 used to be 25 because there was no social media and all of those things today It's looking like around 35 Average man now you still got something 40 and 50 ain't mature After eight you you got something in the 70s now Think about who you watch on tv Going live every day during this his situation. You got something they 70s ain't mature. So think about it now Ramika After eight years six years married two years divorce Of cheating financial instability my ex-husband is saved and now wanting his family back Is it possible to trust again with God anything is possible if he really knows God he really working with God With God anything is possible But if you go back what you're gonna have to do is You got to have you got to put some stipulations in place So if he say he living right he say he living right and doing right now what what you're gonna hit him with Hey, I need you to work with this here relationship coach name Tony gaskins Because I feel like it'll help both of us you tell them both of y'all doing it You do your sessions. He does his sessions or another coach go on my mentor. Like the links up be in the description Pick your coach. You could pick your coach. He could pick his coach y'all work together And then you see if he willing to do that if he willing to do that If he willing to read a book together, he willing to do those things y'all got something If he ain't willing to do the work that you feel need to be done keep it moving My friend Shabee god bless you my friend gives me mixed signals always flirts but says that we are just friends But accused me of friend zoning everyone but he has a girlfriend. What's that about?  So it's something in his preferences in his list of preferences That you don't have and he leaning on his preferences. So the girlfriend has his preferences Or maybe some of the things he need And he doesn't feel you have that but if he could take his love for you And put it with her He'll have his ideal woman and he just too immature to realize no woman will be Completely perfect.  When you can love as if you've never been hurt before when you could love as if you've never been hurt before what I mean by that is You can't give your next two strikes Because of your ex.  STD is different than sexual history. It's a little different sexual history could be How many people you've slept with that may not be a necessary conversation in this day and age just because there's an assumption that people are dating around sleeping around and What said? Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of love So you have to realize that when you go to telling all your sexual history It can be thrown in your face in six months a year five years 10 years So be very selective about that Be very selective about that Now when it comes to std's that's a different situation And to be honest with you Every situation could be a little bit different. So you may need coaching on that because It's difficult with a std because what you have to realize is a person Does not want to risk Catching anything from you If they don't love you So when in that situation you kind of You stop You really stop because if you tell that in the first month and the person don't love you I'm out of here. Hey got to go You wait six months When the person has love for you, then you tell them then they can say you lied to me. You misled me I wouldn't I wouldn't have been here this long had you told me that that's something you should have told me In the first 30 days So in that it really comes down to it's a personal choice And you got to be willing to accept what comes with it and you can't really control that But it could be the case to where you tell something About std and the person you're talking to Could have it as well and say oh Well, actually I was meaning to tell you the same thing And if that's what you're looking for a plan for then, you know, put it in your prayers Maryland god bless your answer Maryland question. Hey y'all putting any questions in here too fast. So they just going up going up going up So I can't see them all so y'all got to Forgive me. I'm gonna try to scroll a little bit and see if I could Get some of the early ones, but When a man texts every other week, how do I respond? You don't respond You don't talk to the man who one foot in one foot out You better yet block them. Don't don't respond at all After three months a god became inconsistent in calling From every day to someday should I step back? Absolutely. It's over He didn't moved on a man know within three months if you if you as wife If he don't know within three months and he he aren't sure You shouldn't proceed Do men try to do right after Off and on girlfriend dog him out on facebook and post seduct the wild pics I don't know what you mean like if if if do right by the girlfriend or do right by Do right by the new woman or do right by the on and off woman But no man ain't trying to do right by that woman right there off and on He'll be trying to get back whatever hurt him, but not not to do right He met my grandma told her We were in the gray area My grandma made this man a whole meal. He got mad because I told him It was disrespect Grandma is mad.  You don't want them. I'll take them Off your hands. That's what grandma feeling now. What he feeling Is he told your grandma what he wanted to tell you but didn't know how to tell you So felt like if he tell you in front of somebody that's a witness That's a person of accountability and now he also gets credit for telling you that y'all in the gray area It's a manipulation tactic.  He immature You got to check him on that and then decide if you want to proceed or not Lydia god bless you Husband left me for a 19 year old Have a two-year-old Major heart and lung issues I watch you every day and taking jiu-jitsu classes, but I still don't know how to get over the hurting pain well You're gonna have to process it it's gonna come down to how you're looking at it And you're gonna have to start Processing a little different And what you got to realize is that it just takes time You got to keep doing what you're doing And understand that if you actively doing the work You won't feel the same on day 70 as you felt on day seven If you actively doing the work so keep watching the video keep giving the knowledge And what you also got to realize is you got to be thankful you got to be grateful You got to say look i'm i'm thankful that he's out of my life now Because if a man will leave his woman When they have a a child who needs some help And go to this one who young enough, you know For whatever That man got bad character and I'd rather Let go of him now and start to get over him then to be You know in my glory years With that uncertainty So you got to shift the way you're looking at it and realize you didn't lose a man You lost a grown boy. You didn't lose an asset.  So it's something it's a necessary thing You can go to psychology today.com and put in your zip code all the therapists will come up Um, if you don't want to go that route you can go to my mentor dot life And we got life coaches on there who are also therapists. It'll say it in their bio But um, you're gonna need therapy because you're dealing with you know trauma and things like that That's a little deeper than what I do as a coach because with coaches you can't label and diagnose.  I think I see it here Maybe they said Brianna Do you have any recommendation for books? About emotional intelligence. I need to put it in the description but um It's a good one here now. This this is what I read emotional intelligence 2.0 It ain't that long but um, it's some real stuff in there now. It's good emotional intelligence 2.0. I keep this here You know only read a few books outside of the holy bible, but that's one of them I bumped into it and It's been a blessing T. Johnson God bless you. God bless you. Happy anniversary. How do you suggest? Building the foundation of a happy Building the foundation of a happy 14 year marriage um Now I don't know if you're asking that to me for my marriage or your marriage Because me and my wife celebrating 13 years. I don't know. So I don't know if you're talking to me, but um For me the foundation is is communication. It's honesty It's being honest, you know brutal truths I'm very real with my wife. I let her know, you know I sit and I talk to her if I'm going through if I'm struggling if I'm feeling some I'm I sit down and we have a town hall meeting And with that communication and then honesty, you know, loyalty Trust you put that together and you're going to have an amazing relationship Relationships fail because of a lack of honesty and loyalty That's really the the biggest reasons just a lack of honesty and loyalty people try to say is Finances it ain't got nothing to do with no money Like whether you broke or whether you rich it money don't matter if you have real love It come down to honesty somebody lying somebody cheating You know loyalty somebody cheating and somebody got wandering eyes somebody being sneaky Somebody trying to do a little stuff on the side even if it's just Siphoning off a little money into a separate account or Giving money to friends and family without getting approval of their spouse Even talking to their ex, you know talking to whoever Friends and family in a negative way. It's honesty and loyalty that is lacking that breaks down a relationship And and so if you have that You got everything done white. God bless you.

Tony the lord told me to get rid of my dreadlocks of 11 years growing I obeyed took me three weeks still seven locks Too untangled Still seven locks too untangled tonight What did you say to the lady with locks at your seminar? Okay, you another country. So you weren't at the seminar Um, it was a lot of ladies that with locks at my seminar And what I was asking them is what was your choice to get the locks? And a few of them they did it out of rebellion to their x So I told them if you did that To get back at your x then your x still have power over you And so that's the wrong reason. So a lot of women hair choices sometimes come from their x And hair means a lot to a woman So you have to identify the root of why you did it and if it came from rebellion um against the man the system the government against relaxes perms If it came from, you know, self-hate You got to identify where it came from now if it came from self-love Then that's something totally different but you give people power when you make a change in your body um Because of somebody else Kanisha Robinson Hi, Tony. Why does a christian man who was interested in you three weeks ago? All of a sudden cuts you off even the friendship Um because a christian man Will not lead you on so if he Has a change of heart which a person Can have at any time He's not going to lead you on so he's letting you go and cutting the friendship so that you can heal So that he can heal so that you both can move on That's what that's about. See a no good man will drag you along Make you think that he want to be with you make you think everything going well And you fall in deeper and deeper in love and then boom now you Right there now see somebody say help my questions above her But see I'm seeing her question at the top of the screen not in the chat Because it show up at the top of the screen so Camille where you just posted my questions above her You could have posed your question When you post a question y'all Don't write about the question in the next post just keep copying and pasting it When you see me slowing down talking copy and paste your question again Because y'all saying it's above this it's above that I can't read the names because it's so small on the screen so just Post it again and keep posting it again without saying something else Let me see something A few months ago the guy At work followed me to say hello a few weeks ago He was behind me getting breakfast, but didn't say anything to me. What are your thoughts? You think about the wrong thing. You were about the wrong thing.  Just want me to have me an HR And and so he could have just had a conviction in the spirit the next time you could have just said Hey to him because he right there. He didn't spoke to you. So he's not ready to initiate. So next time. Hey, how you doing? Just like that and still sitting there letting rack your brain thinking about it trying to read between it As long as you ain't chasing him down to say hey, you bumping to him. Hey, how you doing? Because now y'all know each other Why do some men leave a relationship shortly after girlfriend has their child To be honest with you. I Can't understand that type of man. I don't I do not It probably has to do with a whole lot of charming pain in his past But I don't understand that type of man. I That that right there That racks my brain. That's one type of man. I really don't I really don't understand But I know it has to do with his internal struggles and his pain and what he's gone through and to be honest with you Good riddance if a man will leave you in that state good riddance.  Should I be cautious in this microwave culture? And it's crazy Yes, Camila at 21. Honestly, you shouldn't even be thinking about love You shouldn't even be thinking about love.

He might not have a heart. He might not be open to love. He His heart is where his actions That show love is at and if that ain't in your house, then it ain't there And so wherever he's showing real love and commitment, that's where it's hard at But you got to understand that you got to understand that Leticia god bless your high tone. They appreciate your honesty.  What do you think? Um, leticia or leticia lethasha forgive me if i'm saying your name wrong now So i'm gonna say leticia and just assume the h silent now.

So you miss my next two sentences Subconsciously, you don't even realize that you just missed and that next sentence might be a whole So I want you to listen to it again. I Use his money to sweep me in But not sexually attracted to him I'm a divorcee. So I'm very cautious of intense men Ended things but still pursuing If you ended it, you got to end it all the way It cannot be Ended but he's still pursuing when you end it. He got to know it's ended So that means you got to be radio silent. He can't get a text back.  He can't hear nothing You got to move on because if you play with it, he's gonna be knocking on your door And he's gonna be reminding you about all the money he doesn't spend And and and the longer you drag a man out The more serious it get Because right now with this situation when two There's an uptick of that.

So understand that now Now hold on now y'all hold on now y'all hold on now y'all getting y'all getting a little happy with them with them cues now God says I thank too much. I believe I'm just attentive instead of getting mad I look for understanding in the behavior is it unhealthy to try to help someone with issues. They don't acknowledge Yes, unhealthy See hollywood got a rule that they don't accept unsolicited material So if you send them your movie script out at a university studio, they're not even gonna open it They're gonna put a stamp on it and put it in the mail.  And he don't want to hear what you got to think about he don't want to hear your thoughts He not interested in your thoughts. And so you got to ask yourself Do I want to be with somebody that has these issues but don't want to address their issues? Do I want to be with somebody who is not trying to heal not trying to learn not trying to grow?  And 2 p.m. You in a different time zone. So it's 11 a.m. And 2 p.m. Your time So yes, that is I only I only do two sessions a day because I You know, I don't have time to be on the phone like that So what so 11 a.m. You that's you Right now if you should be home working from home. So 11 to be perfect for you Now if it's booked out in the April that mean you take your lunch at 11 Take your lunch at 11 a.m.   So yeah 11 11 and 2 if you need other times, that's considered a vip session And the price is double. So that's typically What certain individuals who just they they need Some different you write in to support at tony gaskins.com and we'll accommodate you but that price Amanda god bless you. Amanda again About the spiritual gifts from yesterday Thanks for the wisdom. I'm writing a few small ebooks right now How would you suggest I turn it into profit amazon?

We just post a quote or a poem every morning online Joy Tony, how many sessions do I need with you to help with my coaching session? Two You probably need two at the most to learn how to run a session is that's what you're saying Two at the most does a man get turned off by a woman if she contacts him all the time and does He see her as a wrestler. Um Yes If he liked you it's flattering You know, if you his His supermodel if you his fantasy is flattering If that's not the case it is unattractive. It's unattractive. It's too Aggressive, but then you also have to ask yourself. Why do I have to contact him so much because if a man like you He's gonna be contact. He's gonna beat you to it.   I give 300 every payday to help out and I want to take care of her, but I have my own goals and dreams I'm trying to see if that's a sister or a brother because sound like what a man will do for his mama, but If you're a woman god bless you um You ain't gonna be able to get off of that. That's just like welfare That's just like welfare.    Just see it as honor your mother. You could speak into her life Right now. I'm starting my dad a business. You know he he's starting to um Like a consulting business doing credit repair Life coaching, you know, I'm starting him a business. So I just paid $3,000 for him to get trained in the credit repair by later One of my clients who has a credit repair business and then he about to take the test So that's what I'm doing my sister. I help her start a group home business I put the money up. I made the connection for her. She got a group home So that's what you could try to do is Try to Find her gifts. You got to look it up. Now see my mama I just I just got to give her money because she Once she got a Check and she see once a mama see they child could take care of them Just like a wife so many wives want to be taken care of that's just in a lot of women A lot of women not for those that's not like that. You might not understand that but y'all know It's it's some women who they want to kick them feet up. So a mama a lot of time they telling themselves I carried you nine months. I raised you. I put clothes on your back. I put food on your table.  God bless you. Thank you for that blessing Number one fan. He's 46 Been in prison 6 16 Says he's a different person Communicating three years No current red flags possible to give this a chance now 20 say 30 say 40 30 Yeah, he's a different person all right he is a different person because I don't even know we had a cell phone when he went in there Definitely had no social media the question is is do we got a release date?

Miami he finna be When he see what dr. Miami and dr.  So listen to me. I don't see any women.  Now what you can do is start a foundation called Write a bar Which is where you write men behind bars and you get a bunch of women who want to write men behind bars And y'all could just help them stay Sane and loveheaded in there Because right now the 19 breaking out in there and so they write beside each other So the 19 just going from cell to cell and so You might have something there, but other than that I would not recommend that shaneath God bless you. God bless shaneath. Lord pour out in her life I love being a part of the blessed tribe really really helping me my healing process sending them blessing. Hey, thank you Thank you. Um For you sending for for the person that sent the cash out as well.  Absolutely If a man don't keep his word I remember my college football coach you just say to to To be early Is to be on time To be on time is to be late To be late is to be forgotten So if a man say I'm gonna call you at nine, but then he calls you at 10. Don't even answer the phone Don't even answer the phone. Yes You you get in touch with him tomorrow. Hey, miss your call. I was in bed Um, you said you was gonna call at nine. What happened and you got to check him on it just like that Here here's excuse. Oh, I fell asleep Okay, um All right And then you see if that's strike one now you see if he now if you always fall in asleep if he always fall in the sleep Listen, brother Now you got epilepsy or narcolepsy or whatever it's called.  Is this normal and will I ever Get my love back. Well, see this is the thing it is normal for people that not working on a with a coach or Read the books or going to seminars or Watching all the videos. It is normal. Hey, y'all got about seven more minutes now. You got about seven more minutes So you got to do intense work So for some people that they may do a session a week for some it may be one or two a month For some it may just be reading books because it's cheaper. So It is normal to feel that way. But what happens is you need words or affirmation In a two-year long distance relationship, he is changing He is changing the fate coming to see me because of the Should I end it? He is changing the fate coming to see me because of the Changing the date. Maybe you meant maybe you meant Two years Maybe you meant changing the date to come see you because of what's going on right now Um Wait till he comes see you, you know, wait till he comes see you He you know, you don't gave it two years Wait till he comes see you. Maybe he didn't have the money. Maybe he was too tired up at work Now he's changing the date You know set a timeline and say, okay, I'm gonna give this three more months If the 19 keep going you might have to stretch it four to six months Now he might come over here with that so you got to be careful about that But you know gave two years technically. Yes, it should be over But it's like that's a personal choice if you got the time to give now If you got somebody knocking on your door who looking like husband material then Go on let him go about his business. My ex wants to get back together. He proposed To strictly only sit down And talk tomorrow morning Genuine nine for one y'all need to talk on FaceTime because of this hill what's going on because You know, he might have at 19 and want to come coughing your face. So for one, I would talk to him on FaceTime so And then two when you and FaceTime that mean you can hang up if you need to hang up and then then It's worth a conversation, but You got to realize It don't work out all the time. So you got to be willing to walk away going about your business Nikki God bless you. God bless you. Just wanted to bless you Not sure if you really know how much your work is a blessing I'm working through some stuff now and being able to listen to your viz and podcasts all day gives me strength Hey, God bless you. God bless you. I really don't know You know how much more work means but I know that I gotta do it So I appreciate y'all for appreciating Question, please. I met a guy in November. We went out one time and no more I asked him if he enjoyed the company. He said he hated every minute Then eight minutes later said, I'm just playing Is that true? Um, it's true that he hated every minute And it's not true that he just playing But the reason why he said that Is because you reached out on the limb to ask him if he enjoyed the time And so that means that you thirsty and you desperate to him So he told you he hated every minute of it because he want to put you in a weak position He want to step on your throat. And so what I mean by that is Since you coming by asking that he enjoyed the time He's saying oh if you want to be a do-girl if you want to be a put-down woman Then let me go ahead and You know take this chance And if you want to be in that role, I'll let you play that role But yeah, he he terrible you shouldn't even ask him that but so now you know don't ask him nothing else because of the 19 just started talking to someone and of course we cannot meet up Is it wrong to ask a man to video chat you or should you wait for him to offer to do it? Let him offer to do it Let him offer to do it because if you go to ask him that and you don't know him like that This ain't already your man.  Hey y'all got about two more minutes on here now So I got to get ready to go. So I don't know if I'd be able to get any more questions.  Stephanie. God bless you. I saw it today I shout a jot at the beginning of the video. I don't know if you was on yet But step and I really appreciate you Hello nephew Tony. Thank you for all the wisdom and truths. I am divorced with husband for 24 years. I'm 55 I don't know if you mean you married 24 years or you were divorced for 24 years I'm 55 men that I knew from college want to date me Not on my back till marriage again. Thank you well Man, you knew from college. They probably didn't grow up. They probably didn't learn some things They probably totally different man As long as you ain't you ain't on your back then It don't hurt. It don't hurt. No I know y'all don't hurt me told other people Don't worry about a man if he knew you in your past and didn't try to shoot his shot But if you was taken back then that's different But then this is different measures once you cross 50 Once you cross 50 you have a little bit more grace to do a little bit more just because you've been here longer and and time is Not all the way where you want it to be whereas when you 30 you don't have to take that kind of Chance because you still you may not have learned everything But at 55 you don't seem enough heard enough. You got a little more wisdom You can take a little chance like trying to date out in your 50s because just for the knowledge because you know how to read through it Hey, I got to get going now y'all. I got to get going Put me some on the grill. Why do men ask? Why are you single? I ask why they ask and they say because I look good It seems like they are trying to figure out what is wrong with me. What is the best answer to this question? The best answer is to tell a man because I haven't met a man worth my time That's the best answer because men always want to work up to something men want to know that It's because of your standards and your quality Versus you not being wanted. Also, you cannot Believe when a man tell you you look good because men just gonna say whatever so it may be true may not be true So you can't believe that But I would just tell them it's because of your standards Hey, God bless y'all. I really appreciate you. I got to go. I'm feeling gonna get on the hill good grill And I bought one of my air fries the other day now Made me some fried wings the other night. So I'm putting on me a little weight on this hill Sit down situation. So y'all pray for me because I'm going to add me a few pounds while we sitting still So if I start to look a little different Just pray keep me in your prayers. God bless you. It's it's healthy and it's love from the lord The lord Put healthy meat on you Uh, mahogany now you don't caught me when I'm leaving now Now don't put y'all don't send no more Donation don't send no more donation no more coach. Uh any of that mahogany god bless you My ex was a player Now he's mad My ex was a player now.   I might be taking sundays off sometime, but You know Jesus worked on sunday, so I might work on sunday, but I see God bless you


Welcome everybody. We are very pleased to welcome the vice-minister of planning and investment Who will give the opening remarks vice-minister, please? Good morning. Dr. David Malone writer of UNU and the Secretary-General of the UN Professor Fintab the writer of UNU Wider your Excellency Kimo Lada Vita Ambassador of Finland Excellencies distinguished participants from all around the world including Vietnam Ladies and gentlemen It is indeed my great honor to be invited to give the opening remarks on behalf of the Ministry of Planning and Investment and the Minister on the occasion of the International Development Conference on Institutional reforms for transformation Inclusion and sustainability in collaboration between UN University's World Institute for Development Economic Research UNU Wider and the Central Institute for Economic Management CIEM Vietnam's leading policy think tank Think tank under the Ministry of Planning and Investment of Vietnam On behalf of MPI I would like to warmly welcome all delegates especially 100 international Participants coming from 20 countries all over the globe who have gone through long journeys to Hanoi over the last few days We are joined today by many internationally well-known development scholars academics Professors researchers practitioners policymakers to exchange ideas and insights in the areas of institutional reforms in economic transformation inclusive growth and environmentally Sustainability these topics as you know have been among critical debates and discussions in both low and Middle-income countries including Vietnam in the 21st century Ladies and gentlemen, we are living in the 21st century Which is characterized by many different emerging challenges the developing world have been compounded by multiple crisis The food and fuel crisis the global recession the devastating devastating nature disasters Natural disasters and those have caused pressures to global development sustainability There is also the huge climate change challenge which resulted from the global warming These development challenges are Interacted and are beyond the ability of any one nation to confront by itself Both developed and developing worlds Then should work together in order to meet the global challenges in the 21st January century apart from Resolving common global issues many developing countries at the same time Have to undertake economic transition pushing institutional reforms in order to create favorable environment for economic growth and sustainability This economic transition process covers the change of state role in a market economy promotion of private sector development enhancement of the economy's integration and at the same time Ensuring the growth gains benefited to all The difficult question for developing countries in this context is how to balance institutional reforms and economic transition with the needs of inclusive growth and sustainable development It is great. It is agreed that while each country is unique in its development path The development community can benefit greatly by sharing experiences of reform and development in order to avoid pitfalls and identify opportunities for future success and This is the reason for us to organize this conference here today Ladies and gentlemen, Vietnam started policy of doi mai known as the economic renovation policy since 1986 and it is undergoing process of transition from centrally planning economy to the market economy This economic reform of the last three decades has gained significant achievements These economic reform of the last three decades has gained significant The unknown average growth of GDP was approximately 6.5 percent Vietnam has made very impressive progress towards achieving the MDG's and Has been successful in meeting the MDG one on eradication of extreme hunger and poverty much ahead of the 2015 deadline The country currently is on track to meet several other MDG's goals It is important to stress that along with economic innovation policy Vietnam has remarkably changed the state's way of thinking with regard to institutionalizing policy making process Policy implementation as one less developing a legal framework for sustainable development While while having achieved remarkable economic growth and poverty reduction results Vietnam still has to overcome several development challenges along with economic transfer transition including low growth quality limited productivity and national competitiveness in increasing income disparity and environmental degradation degradation, sorry all these issues Would cause challenges to the country's sustainable development in medium and long term Our conference is held in good moment when the government of Vietnam is in process of reviewing the 30 years of economic renovation drawing lessons and prepare development policy directions for the period 2016-2020 In the context of global integration and interactive Contact us today Vietnam needs very much to learn the reforms and transition experience from other countries From the conference agenda, I found that all topics that won't be discussed in different sessions During the next two days are very important for Vietnam. I believe that we will Get great benefits from participating in discussions sharing our experiences and learning from other countries experience in Dealing with challenges development issues We look forward to sharing and learning from you Let me conclude by opening remarks My opening remarks by expressing great thanks to UNU wider for Co-organizing this important international conference in Vietnam. I Would also like to thank all distinguished chairs presenters panelists who will actively contribute to the conference Last but not least many thanks to all participants attending the conference. I wish all of you a very and reaching and fulfilling time at the conference and Please enjoy time being in our capital of Hanoi. Thank you all very much. All the best. Thank you Thank you very much vice-minister. I appreciate very much this warm welcome and thank you all for traveling to this fascinating city Founded as Tang Long the rising dragon more than a thousand years ago in 1010 by the Emperor Li Tai Toh as the seat of his government Now in 1831 Tang Long was renamed Hanoi between the two rivers and Hanoi is now the capital of one of the most dynamic and bustling countries in the world. I Would like to add my warmest gratitude To the MPI to CIM and its presidents president Dr. Kung and vice-president madam Hong and all your staff for joining you organizing this conference in a smooth partnership with UNU wider and a truly global network of researchers At wider we've been looking forward to this event and it is both a personal and a professional pleasure to greet you here in Hanoi As some of you will know, I've been so fortunate to have spent a major part of my professional life Here the last 15 years working with numerous Vietnamese collaborators senior researchers and policymakers in for example the Ministry of Planning and Investment Today I am here in the capacity as director of UNU wider In 2001 we wrote in a study The process of economic reform in Vietnam can be compared to traveling a long winding road Through dangerous mountains and huge river valleys Great achievements have been made since doi moi was initiated in 1986 But Vietnam has only come part of the way Well, we wrote that 15 years ago and as the vice-minister referred to Vietnam has made great strides since then Vietnam has now reached what some would call the second state of its reform process There were three issues restructuring the nation's financial system restructuring its public investment program and the restructuring of its state-owned enterprises have taken center stage Now these reform challenges Are is set out in the conference outline Very relevant to many other developing countries and I'm grateful that we will all be able to share Experiences and insights on these topics in this conference over the coming couple of days But why do we have been discussing intensively our new? 2014 to 18 work program on transformation Inclusion and sustainability Which is in focus also here so To start us off We thought Tony Addison chief economist and deputy director wider and myself that we should engage in a brief dialogue Talking about what are some of our expectations to try to sort of set the scene? Why are we here today and tomorrow? So Tony could you please set out the challenges we wish to see discussed over the next two days Okay, thank you very much Finn. It's a very old pleasure to be here in Hanoi and to See both old friends and to make new friends. Well first up Well, obviously one of our first topics is transformation Because many of us come from countries now. They're experiencing economic growth But we're not satisfied with the level of diversification of the economies particularly the creation of high value-added Agricultural sectors and particularly industry and services. So that's why we have transformation on the agenda But we also have inclusion on the agenda because that's very close to our hearts at wider We've just released the world income inequality database the latest version of that Which is the most comprehensive database on inequality in the world But we want to think about inclusion in broader terms as well because we need to think about gender equality at this conference We can't have economic growth with half the population missing out on employment opportunities and opportunities for advancement So there are many different manifestations of inequality. We need to look at in this meeting And indeed we'll be discussing social protection throughout the meeting and our third big theme is of course sustainability because we have the difficult trick of pulling off economic diversification and achieving inclusion in the context of fast growth without destroying the environment and I think we all know that the impact of climate change is a very dangerous phenomenon for all of our countries, but also there's the complete objective of embracing sustainability and environmental inclusive Development in all of our national agendas how we for example finance energy how we finance clean energy infrastructure Is one of going to be one of the issues at this conference and underpinning all of this this very large and important agenda Is the issue of institutions? Countries vary in terms of their institutional capabilities the forms that institutions take would be talking a lot about Institutional underpinnings of transformation inclusion sustainability Over the next few days not just the role of government But also the role of local government of the private sector of communities and so forth so all of these different actors So Finn we do have a very large and challenging agenda, but then again. We have a large group of People from far and wide to help us discuss that agenda Okay, thanks. So institutional reforms for transformation inclusion and sustainability Now a second question We have together with CIM been fortunate to be able to bring together Professionals from a very wide set of countries and it's a national development organization. Now. What what's the underlying rationale for that? Well here we've brought together a very welcome range of people and experiences Because we come from countries at very different stages of development And it's important that we all learn from those different stages of development For example the low-income countries many of them now thinking about or actually achieving The movement up to middle-income status Through their economic growth are going to face some of the issues that now middle-income countries face For example building inclusive financial sectors, which are well regulated achieving the privatization and regulation of formally state enterprises Getting energy Investments all of these things are where low-income countries very much are going to be learning from middle-income countries But we also have represented at this country this conference and high-income countries Because one of the interesting things for economists is that of course? The problems never stop the problems of being a low-income country very different to being those of a middle-income country But the problems never cease the higher your income grows Indeed, you know, we've seen with the financial crisis of the last few years Which is in some ways was a North Atlantic financial crisis There are real dangers ahead as you diversify your economy as you deepen your financial sector as you would try to achieve more Development and growth so we can all learn from each other and this is why in a sense the United Nations and Wider is a very strong part of the United Nations University and the United Nations system is a very good convening point for us all to share in these experiences And it's particularly welcome. I think Finn that we see a very large contingent of African colleagues But we also welcome colleagues from Latin America from Southeast Asia From Russia from Japan and far and wide Okay. Thank you. So bringing people bringing professionals together Learning from each other we can all learn that's a continuous process throughout That certainly makes a lot of sense to me and certainly when I think about the mandate of the UNU and UNU wider now You did make sort of reference to the Nordic countries indirectly through High-income countries. You want to say a word more about the Nordic countries Well, it's always been a pleasure for wider to have our home in Helsinki Helsinki Finland and indeed wider Celebrates its 30th anniversary next year of its founding in 2015 and Helsinki has been a very warm and welcome home for us and a very good base for us over those 30 years, but we also engage very intensively with the rest of the Nordic region Including particularly Sweden and obviously Finns are home Denmark and in some ways we wanted to include an Nordic theme to this conference because the Nordic countries show in some ways how you can create Market economies which are also very inclusive Market economies which have grown Which continue to grow which generate tax revenues those tax revenues support comprehensive systems of social protection and the provision of public goods such as infrastructure Those economies invest in clean energy and in environment Creating something of a virtuous circle So we think that the Nordic model is particularly an interesting model to bring to this conference as we all of us Struggle with the agenda of how we transform our economies But at the same time contain inequality as well as reducing absolute poverty Our metric of success should not be just Absolute poverty reduction. It has to be also inequality But we also wish to Bring the other country experiences to this meeting and as the vice-minister said Vietnam itself is going through a next phase of Reform after the very successful doymouth reform So in many ways although we weave the Nordic experience into this meeting We also do have experiences from across the world and many of you over the next two days will be sharing those experiences with us Okay, one final question So what do we at UNU wider at least hope to take home from this conference? Well wider has always been an Institute that runs on the goodwill of Its network and you are all part of the network You may be now new members of the network Some of you are older members of the network, but over the years we've extreme experienced extremely good strong good will a willingness to share your quality research a Willingness to engage in open debate in a friendly and collegiate manner And so we will take away from this program of the next two days Ideas that we can bring into our research program and continue our engagement with you The ideas behind this conference are part of our 2014 18 Work program which began in January and we'll be taking these ideas forward particularly as we move into celebrating our 30th anniversary in 2015 We'll also though be trying to pick up on views and ideas about the post 2015 development agenda Which is obviously a very large debate in the global development community at the moment particularly in the UN system We're particularly looking for ideas about how we should all create good jobs in our society How we can turn sometimes the rhetoric of gender equality into practical action at large scale How we can deepen the expansion of social protection? Which has been very successful in a number of our countries, but now needs to roll out in other countries as well so we'd like to take the ideas that we generate over the next two days into the UN system into the debates in New York and elsewhere and Finn Finn mentioned that we're on a long and winding road Vietnam has started very successfully on that road I think like people Ideas need to travel So I think my motto for this conference is that we're here to get good ideas to travel further Thank You Finn.

Sound everybody, it's your day! And tonight I want to talk to you for what amuse. What happened last week. Well, for those of you who are watching my first video blogs, you might know that my wife is now a guy from China. She is there a long time ago and she is there two or three weeks later. And of course I am not a guy. I am here in Sydney, I have to work because I am a subcontractor, I am not just a guy, So, I am here and working and she is there and visiting famous vineyards, statues, temples, places, lakes, it doesn't matter, she visits everything and photos it and sends the photo to me every day, around ten in the morning. And of course, at that time I was at work and I was working and then I heard my phone ring it, looked at the screen and saw a lot of beautiful places and that I read the messages from it and all the messages were like, oh, the place is so beautiful, oh, you have to look at it, oh, look at that, oh, look at that, oh, it is so beautiful and I thought, fuck that, really, I have to taste it and every day you send me beautiful photos and every day she sends me a message and says, can you send me photos of the cat because I saw my cat, strange, she doesn't see me, she saw the cat, she doesn't feel my hand, only the hand of the cat, what the fuck, and every day she asks for photos of the cat and of course because I am a good I send to her photos of the cat and almost all photos are simply of a sleeping cat because she does nothing else, I don't know why she loves the cat so much, but every day she asks for it and before the week I thought, fuck that, I want to get out of here and then she asks for photos of the cat again and I just ignored that and the next day she asks again and I ignored that, I responded to all other messages but I ignored the pet of the photos and then after three days she said, what happened, why don't you want to send me photos of the cat and I said, in fact I have very bad news for you, the cat escaped, I chased it, the cat escaped in the pool because your pet was malfermized and the cat escaped in the pool and ran to the pool because our apartment construction is very close to the pool and it ran over the pool and then it came up and you can imagine what happened there and of course my wife who read that she called me and said, do you tell me that my cat died, my charming cat and I said, yes, yes, it died and she said, no, you don't care, the cat didn't die, you know how much I love that cat, it didn't die and then I simply went to google and I found a photo of a dead cat and I sent it to her to check the application that we use and she said no and I think that the whole thing took about five minutes so at the beginning she was very shy but didn't believe me but at the end she totally believed me and almost started crying and then I said, no, the cat didn't die, it was there and I sent photos of the sleeping cat again and she said, fuck you and she sent the phone back and then she didn't send me photos of the place anymore and in fact I sent a photo of the cat because I liked those photos but that was fun for me, I don't know about you but she really liked me so that's all, I just wanted to share that with you, if you liked this film, like it, share it, subscribe to my channel if you haven't subscribed yet and I'll see you in the next film and you're not there, I almost said in the next photo but that's why I have a photo of you and as always I want to thank my Dona Tantonje Patreon and he is Tommy Linsley, Slavish Glyev, Robert Nielsen, Lupe, Sarah S.J., Jay Z.Nakus and Shane Power and if you want to donate to my channel you don't want to, you have to, you can go to the link below


Hey everyone, I'm Amy and today on The Vintage Space, I wanted to give you a brief introduction to Miss Jerry Cobb. The cover of my brand new book, Fighting for Space, features two women. The one on the bottom half is Jerry Cobb. So I thought before the book comes out, it might be a good idea to give you guys a brief introduction into who she was and why and how she plays into the story of women trying to get a role in space in the 1960s. Jerry Cobb was born in March of 1931, which meant she grew up in a very interesting time both for women as well as female aviators. She grew up in a world where women had a lot of opportunities, far more than her mother's generation had had. She also grew up in a time when it wasn't uncommon for a woman to learn to fly. After Amelia Earhart became the first woman to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a plane and then flew the route herself a couple years later, the world knew that women weren't capable aviators or at least could be capable aviators. So when Jerry's father learned to fly himself during the Second World War, it wasn't really a question of whether or not it was right for a girl to learn to fly. Jerry, then 12, demanded her father take her up in the plane and start giving her lessons and he did. Thus Jerry grew up in a world where there were no barriers to women wanting to fly and as such imbued her with a sense of confidence in her world and her life as a female pilot. But that was when Jerry was 12. When she was about 20 and starting to look for a work, she realized there were still a lot of barriers barring women from flying. That's largely because all of the male pilots coming home from the war in the mid 1940s meant the country was flush with very capable aviators, many of them fighter pilots or pilots who'd been in combat in dangerous situations, not girls who had learned to fly with their dad as teenagers and had never seen anything really challenging in the air. Nevertheless, she did find ways to fly for a living and had her fair share of adventures. And it just so happened that she was in the right place at the right time and had the right background and was the right age around the time the Mercury astronauts were selected in 1959. Without giving away any spoilers, Jerry managed to take the same medical test as the astronauts, albeit in a private pilot program. What happened next was quite interesting. We've all seen the media circus that can erupt around basically anything in the social media era. And turns out it was pretty much the same in the 1950s and 60s, only with newspapers instead of Twitter. At the end of the day, everyone's opinion on female astronauts was very different. And that is what my book is about. So I'm not going to go into it here, at least not before the book is released. Needless to say, Jerry was right in the thick of things, standing firm by her own opinions the entire time. It's not a spoiler to say that Jerry did not make it into space in the 1960s. We know that because, well, history is out there to read. What she did end up doing is working largely as a missionary pilot between Florida and South America for a number of years. But she never let that part of her that wanted to be an astronaut die. She defined herself so firmly in that quest to become an astronaut that when she died in 2019, most of her obituaries called her America's first female astronaut. I would say very much erroneously. Even though I've spent a lot of time digging into Jerry as part of the research for my book, there are still some facets of her that I'd like to dig into more, largely her personal life. She wrote about things in her memoirs that have been refuted elsewhere. And the more I dig, the more there is that refutes what she wrote in her books. In light of all the little bits and pieces of tangential information I keep finding about Jerry, she's a very complicated and difficult person to deal with. And so we are going to be digging into her personality just a little bit more on this channel down the line. I still have some more research to do. Nevertheless, you'll get a fairly thorough introduction to Jerry in my new book, Fighting for Space, as well as how she fits into the entire large question of where women fit into spaceflight in the 1960s. My book is currently available for pre-order and will be hitting shelves on February 18th all across the United States and Canada.
