There was that lady, and then after her hue, and then you'd say Namaskar, you know. So we ask the question, then the impulse, action, joyfulness. Is there an instance of where it's impulse, action, and then pain? I have to interrupt you for a second. I think you have forgotten the most important word in your description. Okay, surrender, question, action, joy. So why did you forget it? Well, I'm saying it now. Because that's the whole thing. But let's say take the example of Christ. So he was in a state of surrender, I'm assuming. He was sort of love in action. He found himself in a situation which he obviously found painful, otherwise he wouldn't have said, may this fate be taken away from me. So is it always joy that comes from responding to the impulse, or can it sometimes be something that you would rather not experience, because there is another way of growing, and that's through pain. Because there's a lot of people thinking through challenge, through pain, through suffering, there is growth. The idea that pain can lead to anything which is actually conducive to deeper self-knowledge is a falsehood. It's the ego that says that because it wants to impose the pain and be allowed to do so. So if you look at the man on the cross, he is on that cross not because he was in surrender to the truth, but because there was a moment when the ego came into play, else he wouldn't be on the cross. Because that kind of physical pain is not something the truth would impulse a body into. So that part of his story is, one can say the story of an enlightened being who had to re-enter into the system and deal with the falsehood around him in the world, with the ego around him. And because he had been in those enlightened states, he was not present enough completely in the system in order to actually deal with what was happening around in a way that would not have led to he himself being attacked, crucified. If in the 5th century they took the image of Christ on the cross as the leading symbolism of the Christian movements, that is because it suited greedy capital's idea of imposing its subjugation on mainly the men so that they would bend to the idea that suffering is what leads them to greater heights, including the suffering of having to serve that greedy capital in the conquests all around the world. Talking here about very simple things, the truth will not impulse this body into action which leads to this body having to undergo pain of that kind, because it's counterproductive to the experience of life itself. You cannot actually experience the joy of this living if you're nailed on a cross. You can't. So the idea of suffering leading to greater heights of self-knowledge may have some minor applications here and there, but fundamentally it is an idea of falsehood. It is an ego that is bringing this idea in order to perpetuate itself. So pain, if there is pain, that means the action has not come from the soul, from the impulse. Can I just add to that? So let's say my soul is impulsively toward an action which potentially could bring me great joy, but then I'm dealing with somebody who, do you see what I'm saying? Somebody who may not be connected or even their soul is telling them to do something which would not match mine. Could that work? Could that happen? Could they intercept it? When a human being is moving into states of surrender and tuning into the master and operating from that impulse and is vigilant about when the ego is trying to take over, increasingly the environment turns into one of joy. There is no argument against that. That's how it is. It's dogmatically so. When you are tuning in deeper and deeper and deeper in surrender, the master of your being, the soul, the antaratman, the antarguru will impulse this entire system into truth actions and these truth actions will lead to joy. So if there is someone whose actions don't gel with your actions, they will actually move out of the environment and there will be others taking over where that tuning in is happening increasingly. And that is, it happens. It's like this unfolding matrix of perfection with all its associations into which you tune in. The more you are in surrender, the more you are in that perfection unfolding. The more you go with the ego, the more you are out of that perfection. It's either this or it's that. So another person cannot come and block you from connecting with your soul. That is your decision. You have to take on the responsibility. You cannot blame the other person or the government or your parents or it is you, Naina, who takes that responsibility. And take on the sadhana, the tapas, the practice of tuning in to the antaratman. And as you deepen that practice, you don't actually have to do much more than that because your environment will gradually become more and more joyous. If on the other hand you start to detach from everything and identify with soul and say, I am that and so, all of this is not me, what you will find out is that the transformations haven't happened. So at one moment when you suddenly fall from that conceptual edifice, that entire thing will just attack you because it has not receded. It is very much still there, which is why the surrender is what? That's the magic word. That's the magic word. It's surrender, Naina, surrender. It's bending down. It's not about conceptually describing the processes, even just bending down. I mean how much of bending down does one even do in a life? And bending down means your eyes are focused on the master. I am your instrument. I am your instrument. Let this instrument function from this impulse of the truth and you're not spaced out in some moonsuit, you're present, your eyes are open, you're tuning into a master that you have known already as a child. It is reconnecting to the signal and circumventing the noise. That's what it is, but surrender is the thing. That's the key. What will happen after that? You'll find out when you move into that surrender state. Again and again, and now, and now, and now, and now. Now, this moment. So it grows, it has to. But it is through the practice that the knowledge of what will happen emerges. And it emerges with everyone. It's not a state of exaltation and, whew, finally I am free. No, because it's not about freedom. It's about surrender. When you are in surrender, you don't need to be free. There is no need for freedom. Imagine that whole idea of being free of all of this simply dissipates because you are in surrender. So why do you need to be free? Free. Free from what? That promise of freedom from all of this, which is the carrot that is dangled in the neo-Advaithan practices. It's a very, very limited amount of time that that experience is there and then it just falls back. And a lot of the time people spend years trying to recover from that initial exaltation or experience of this separatedness from everything rather than an embracing of thisness and moving into surrender. So it's also something to really, you know... So all experience will be positive each time we follow the impulse. What happens is that your system will have to learn to interpret what's happening because, you know, it's very... This is a satsang. It's not a wellness seminar. It's a satsang of seekers who are very keen on knowing the truth of their existence. It is a satsang, a group of those actually in truth. Then it is the truth that we have to connect with. When we connect with the truth and the actions that emerge from that truth lead to circumstances which our system is not yet ready to interpret, we may initially interpret it as difficulties. But the joy grows because when you fearlessly go with the impulse of the truth, there is like a foundation of joy created which you may initially not even understand because you've lived from ego a large part of your life. You don't even know what joy is. I'm not saying you personally now, but in general systems that have been operating on ego for a large part of their life have to recalibrate to even grasp that it is possible to live in that kind of joy without detachment as the posture, but surrender as the posture. So yes, in the beginning you may not be sure, but it's not about positive and negative, it's simply about this system being more coherent, contoured and integrated into this-ness. So you have to make a decision and you're not sure what you have here. It will be a good thing to make a decision. Is it best to sort of back off or just jump in with both feet and hope it won't be too painful and hopefully it will be good? I feel if the posture is surrendered, it's not a one-day seminar where you get a tick-offs and then you go and apply them. It's a sadhana, it's a practice. And why I'm insisting on this is because only those that are ready to take up that practice will know. And there are many, many, many people around the world who have taken up this practice and are very, very clear that they start at one point to actually feel the impulse of the soul. So it is a practice and you have to take it up and yes, when you take up this practice at one point, there'll be a clear impulse. And until that point arises, it's always this way or that way, which is anyway how you're living. So by taking up the practice, you at least give yourself a chance to tune into your master. Yeah, I only ask that because I've got a yoga course. It's yes, no, yes, no, tomorrow, which starts tomorrow. So I'm thinking...  The only difference is now you know that there is a material instance within you that is able to impulse the system so you can start to practice listening to it. Even if you make a mistake, at least you know something now which you didn't know before. You just did not know this before. And now you know it. So even if you get a wrong impulse and you have to go through pain because of that, you keep on trying. It's a sadhana, it's a practice. And some people get it quite fast and some people take a while longer. It depends on your readiness to bend. Surrender means don't impose the ego on what the soul or the source is going to make you do. Just let it impulse you. And don't be afraid. Even if you make a mistake, it's better to do it fearlessly than to do it with fear. Just be fearless, just do it.  And finally, just chill, relax, relax. Even if you make a mistake, go fearlessly, go. This life is meant to be lived fearlessly. And gradually what happens, you start to tune in more. You make a couple of mistakes again and again. And at one point, it's actually, let it even be like that. You'll be so shocked to know that it's there. Be fearless, more than anything else. Fear is the ego. That's the enemy. Thank you. Do one thing, Neena. Take a quiet spot somewhere at the river. Sit down for a moment. Quiet your thinking. Just that you're there. Feel yourself in surrender. Take yourself through that process. Move into surrender. Put a smile on that face. Move into surrender. Feel, feel, feel, feel. Quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet, quiet. Quiet the thoughts. And then just ask. And the first impulse you get, just go with it fearlessly. And it will be the thing to do.


From the SiliconANGLE Media office in Boston, Massachusetts, it's theCUBE. Now, here's your host, Stu Miniman. Hi, I'm Stu Miniman, and after many travels around the globe with theCUBE, really happy to be back in the Boston area studio and happy to welcome to the program first-time guest and first time we've had open link on the program, Rich Grossi, who's the CEO coming up from Long Island. Appreciate you joining me up here and looking forward to discussing with you. So first, open link, as I said, company first time we've had on theCUBE. Why don't you give our audience a little bit of background? How long the company's been existence on what the focus is? Well, we're celebrating this year, our 25th anniversary. So we serve the energy, financial, trading, and treasury markets. We're based in Long Island with offices around the world serving about 500 clients or so in those different markets and happy to be here today and talk about some of the innovation that we have going on. Great, before we get into open link, Rich, give us a little bit about your background. You've been with open link for a good part of the journey. I have, I've been with the company for 21 years in a variety of different roles. Spent some time in operations and development. Prior to the CEO position, I spent some time in operations and prior to this role, I was the CTO of the company. Okay, well, congrats on the new role, Rich. And so tell me, what is open link today? You talked about kind of the industries you focused on. How do you fit kind of in the markets today? So we are the market leader for the categories I mentioned. So we'll play in the energy and the commodity space. We'll play in the financial services, banking, treasury space. We're well known for our risk management capabilities and we serve top tier clients in all of those markets around the globe. Yeah, Rich, it's interesting. I think there's not a single segment in the market that's not going through some significant change, you know, disruptions on everyone's mind. What's changing for your customers and how is open link really kind of adjusting to kind of meet those needs? Yeah, it's always been a high degree of sensitivity towards risk. That's been our strong point as a company for a long time and we serve the clients through kind of advanced analytics that provide them with that capability. But more frequently we're seeing total cost of ownership, driving a lot of the decisions made by our clients, right? So in markets that have some headwinds coming in and just kind of steady state markets that are looking for how to use technology to benefit them, but also reduce the total cost of ownership. Okay, so explain what that means.  How do they make sure they have the right data? How do they make sure that there's not getting a tax on what they have, where does open link help there? What does the products look like? Yeah, so I mean, so we have a pretty advanced trading and risk management platform. We also provide treasury and cash management solutions. And in those spaces what we're doing is we're providing our clients with the ability to manage their risk, manage their positions, take a peek ahead to see what's coming in the markets, do sensitivity analysis to ensure that as they trade and as they transact, and to your point, as they manage to the logistics, it's all done with a system capture from front to back and it's all done with a view towards the risk of the application and the risk of the markets that they're in. Okay, you had a recent launch that was open cloud. I mean, maybe explain what that is, how that fits with kind of the broader discussion of cloud. Sure, I mean, open link's been in the private cloud space now for about 11 years. So this was our hosting application. And through those years we built up the technology to support more of the kind of online. So predominantly we were a perpetual based company on-prem and now our clients are looking for a little bit more ownership, a little bit more security and they're looking for that single vendor to manage their applications within the cloud. So there's a big transformation in our markets where many of our large tier one energy and financial services clients are looking for that reduction of total cost and they're looking for open link to be the provider that can offer them that service within the cloud environments. Okay, so is this a SaaS offering? Is it living on some of the public cloud? Help us kind of get the weeds a little bit here that you're former CTO. Sure, so I mean, it's a similar technology to what we've built over the years. So we're still managing scalability and performance. We still have great security in the application, still managing a lot of the monitoring and logging and application security within that but it is in the Microsoft Azure environment. So we're working with Microsoft partnered with them to build up a cloud environment for our customers such that they can manage this remotely as you would in any cloud environment and then provide all the advantages of Microsoft Azure on top of the technology that open links built over time. Okay, so sounds, you know, similar to what you were doing before but a lot of changes. How organizationally do you have to change for this and, you know, maybe walk us through a customer, you know, why would they choose one versus the other? What are some of the kind of big advantages of the new way? Sure, so organizationally, we do have cloud dedicated teams now, right? So a lot of knowledge required to take your product, not only cloud enable it but make it feature functionality rich for the clients within the cloud. So we've built cloud operations teams. We've built SOX and NOX. We leverage our employee base around the world. We've put a lot of technology advantages into the new software that's cloud enabled. So things like performance is just a big topic for us. So allowing our clients to drive greater performance through scalability and dynamic scalability within the cloud. That's a big advantage to our clients. Yeah, you think back a couple of years ago if you talked about, you know, Microsoft and Google and the Amazon to the world, it was like, oh well, I'm worried about the security. Governance is challenging, you know, was just at one of the bigger cloud shows and they say, security's actually opportunity. You've got to kind of get a redo on security. Governance seems to be something that we're sorting through. What's your customer's experience? Is there still hesitancy or are people, you know, kind of jumping in the waters nice? Well, I think there's still the question and I think it's changing very rapidly for our client base. So a couple of years ago, our clients were interested in the cloud but not necessarily moving to the cloud. And I think you're absolutely right in the sense that some of them were concerned about the security of their trading data being out in something like Microsoft Azure. Many of them recognize today that the security benefits of a Microsoft Azure as an example could be far greater than what they're doing in-house today. And then as you look at the technology of OpenLink, we've built layers of security on top of everything that we've used to have within the core application, encryption and the like. And now using some of the Key Vault technologies and some of the scalability technologies of Microsoft Azure, we feel like we're able to provide a higher level of security than they even had on-prem using the cloud up-clays. You know, one of the other big advantages if you plug into kind of that ecosystem and platform of the public cloud, what opportunities are there? You know, Microsoft, you think of like active directory, all of their business functionality. What do you gain today? And maybe give us a little roadmap as to what this looks like down the road. Yeah, so our clients are looking for a handful of things, right? So they're looking for that reduction in ownership. We've been able to save them on average about 30% just coming from their on-prem or their data centers today. They're also looking for that single source of support. So today we're working with their network engineers and their DBAs. In the cloud version, we're able to provide them with those same services coupled with our support applications so that we're providing kind of single line of visibility into their overall trading and risk management application. And they're also looking for performance, as I mentioned before, and security. So with the cloud application, we're not only able to provide them with the feature functionality of our application, but also the cloud technology that sits around it. Yeah, one of the other things, if you look at kind of managing the environment versus going to the public cloud, usually the public cloud, the joke I have is, hey, what version of Azure are you running on? Well, Microsoft takes care of that. Is similar thing in your environment? Very similar. So the ability to upgrade, the ability to leverage the scalability of Microsoft Azure, the new technology coming out in Microsoft Azure, all the cloud feature functionality, that all comes with it for free. And then to your point, providing our clients with a managed service so that we can manage not only their day-to-day environment, but we can also manage the infrastructure and the business needs that they have in using our application. So all that combined is provided our clients with a great leg up in terms of how they use our software and how they manage it moving forward. Yeah, I'm curious, do the customers have to choose one or the other, the on-prem or the cloud? Do you have some customers that might be migrating being to kind of the hybrid multi-cloud is kind of a big issue for a lot of customers? Yeah, so we have a large number of clients today that are still on-prem and they'll probably stay on-prem for a while. But the evolution of the cloud as it relates to our client base is quite rapid. So a couple of years ago, we would talk to our clients and they were interested. Last year, we announced our proof of concept coming in what we were building. We launched our public cloud just in quarter three of this year and the feedback from our client base was dramatic. So now they're all looking to kind of migrate over. We respond to RFPs quite often and I would estimate maybe about 90% of those coming in have some interest in the public cloud moving forward. Okay, Rich, what do you want your clients to really know about OpenLink? And the two pieces just kind of today and if they knew OpenLink say five years ago, you know, what's the big change? Yeah, I think, well, we have a tagline that says we like to solve the complex, right? And make it simple. So you'll see many of our clients some of the bigger named vendors that are out there using our software solve really complicated problems, right? So our software is pretty configurable and also addresses some of the larger challenges that we have within the spaces that OpenLink sits in. So our clients are well-known in that area and OpenLink is well-known in their our ability to solve those problems. When you take that and you take the total cost of ownership and you take the public cloud capabilities and you build all that technology that we've advanced over the past, you know, 25 years, it's a pretty compelling application and company that we work for. All right, well, Rich, appreciate the updates on everything happened in OpenLink. Wish you the best of luck with the cloud offering. We'll be back with more coverage here. Always check out thecube.net for all the coverage and thanks for watching The Cube.


Hi there, this is Heidi George-Rathaway with the OpenStack Foundation. I'm here with the Metaca Design series featuring John Garbet from NOVA. John, tell us a little bit about yourself. Thank you for having me. So I'm John Garbet. I'm currently a Principal Engineer at Rackspace working on the public cloud there. I was NOVA-PTL for the last cycle for the Liberty Ticle and also NOVA-PTL from Metaca. You're also known as the Tuba Guy. I am. My RSE next, John the Tuba Guy. Let's talk a little bit about the hot topics that you discovered in Tokyo at the Design Summit. What were some of the decisions and outcomes from these discussions? So one of the things we spent a lot of time on was looking at the resource modeling. So how NOVA and the scheduler interacts and sort of coming up with a way in which we can model that interaction and get a good versioned API there. There were lots of other good conversations sort of focusing on specific issues that people have come up with. We had some on-conference sessions looking at drilling into the specific issues, see how we get forward on that. That was really productive I think. One of the other things I guess is stuff that wasn't a hot topic. There was a lot of stuff that we agreed ahead of time using the spec process and the spec-less blueprint process and got it all locked into place before the summit so we could really focus on things that needed the in-person discussion and get down to the details on those so we can get everyone moving forward as fast as possible. So tell us more about some of the planning and particularly the user needs that you had identified as the problems you're trying to solve. Yeah, let me sort of give you a quick whistle-stop tour of some of the big highlights of things that we spoke about. One was config options. We have an amazing number of config options, at least 800, almost uncountable. We need to get those down. We need to work out what they all do and get that documented. We had a developer go digging and he sort of realized how bad it was in some of these areas so we need to go down that route and try to sort that out. There's a whole host of other little things. So for example, we have a notification system to sort of integrate with internal systems. We found a way of versioning that and trying to evolve that so we can get that to a better state and get some documenting going. There's some great work to try and adopt OS Info. There's a new package that can help with getting better default configuration values for images to make the image metadata setting easier. There's some interesting NFV use cases that we were discussing. There's some new physical function pass-through for SROV. There's hierarchical quotas came up. We think we found a way forward to get that in. Looking at manila integration, most folks want to isolate their connections from the network. A whole heap of really interesting things. I guess there's a lot more sort of things involving cross-projects and starting to make progress between the multiple projects. One highlight from that kind of set of stuff was working with people from Trove and other kind of projects where they need to use NOVA so they need to protect the server that they have running with the NOVA. So we're looking at ways forward on moving forward with that. Tell us more then about the priorities that came out of the Design Summit. What do you see as maybe the top three or four priorities for your new features and enhancements going forward? So one thing we started doing NOVA over the past few releases is actually as a community using one or two design summit sessions, getting together and sitting down and agreeing what we want to focus on and setting up the process to make sure that we can actually focus on that.  So the ones that we have right now at first is Live Migrate. There's no particular order, but Live Migrate is one of those operations that have been a problem point, largely due to a lack of upstream testing. So we're working on doubling down on that. There's a whole group of people from all sorts of different companies getting together and focusing on that, which is great. So we want to support that to make it a priority. There's quite a few things that we've carried over from the last release. So these are multi-cycle things that are just taking time. One is the API work, so we're going to focus on API documentation and making sure that the service catalog, well, making sure that the API works well for the service catalog. There's another piece, which is Cells. So Cells v2 work. So that, again, is going to be a focus for this cycle. A piece that there was a lot of interest on was OSVIF Lib, that's another priority, which is basically trying to make sure that we have a solid interface between Nova and Neutron to do with all the VIF plug-in. So we're going to work on that. And that's really important to support Neutron's big stadium of projects and make sure that we keep the velocity on the VIF plug-ins. Another piece, which I was talking about earlier, is the scheduler. So we're going to keep working on the scheduler and getting that interface solid. So yeah, it's live migrate, the API, Cells, OSVIF Lib, and the scheduler. Well, one of the ways that we try to connect the dots among projects is by defining project themes. And so I wondered if there were a few key themes or maybe one theme that you see that your project will really achieve in Mitaka. That's a good question. One of the things I've done is I've sat down and looked at the themes of the product working group are using, the scale of relative resiliency and all these kind of things. And honestly, Nova has little pieces that actually hit on each one of these. So I'll dig into a few of these just to add some color to that list of priorities. So scalability. One of the things that Cells is actually helping with is trying to get to that next level of scale. We need to make sure a single Cells scale as well that also have ways of attaching these scales. Expanding deployments. So it also adds to the manageability pieces while at the same time. Because you can deploy individual Cells, test them, get them ready, and then add them into production. So you're sort of deploying in these little units that you keep adding. The Cells are super useful for that. Another piece is probably resiliency. The live migrate work, that's really kind of digging into there. There's lots of other things, sort of resiliency, technical debt, kind of pieces that are coming up. The live migrate, but as well as keeping the API is during upgrade, keeping the API up during upgrade, tackling things like quotas. As I mentioned, the hierarchical quotas. There's lots of pieces there. Modularity is a big thing. The RSVIF lib, making sure that the Nova Neutron interface is good. Making sure that the schedule interface is good so we can start adding more support in there. Lots of work on those fronts. And again, lots of work on the API and making sure it's documented so people can use that on the interoperative front. So, yeah, lots of things. John, thank you so much for taking time with us. We really appreciate it. John, the two will die. Thank you very much. See you later.


Well, today I want to share with you an interesting development of yesterday when one of the state high courts in India, the Rajasthan High Court, quashed the first information report, the FIR, registered by the police against Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and film journalist Anna Vetikad in 2018 regarding holding a poster stating smash Brahminical patriarchy. This was an offense committed in 2018, the alleged offense. The offenses made out in the police FIR were very serious in nature being under section 120b 295a, section 500, 501, 504 and 5 of the Indian penal code, dealing predominantly with criminal conspiracy, maliciously outraging religious sentiments, breach of peace, causing communal disharmony and defamation etc. If proven and convicted, the accused Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and journalist Anna Vetikad could have faced imprisonment for life. The High Court allowed their plea to quash the FIR after concluding that the slogan cannot be construed as having any direct link with the religious sentiments of any section of society. How the whole thing started was that Jack Dorsey visited India in 2018 and held a meeting with six female journalists. After the meeting, a photo was tweeted on a Twitter account in which a poster bearing slogan smash Brahminical patriarchy was prominently displayed. One private complainer alleged at that time that by posting this highly objectionable poster picture on the Twitter account, the accused maligned the Brahmin society at large and also acted in a manner likely to create rift and factions in the society and induce even religious hatred towards the Brahmin community as a whole. The police complaint got to be registered accordingly at that time in Rajasthan. The High Court of Rajasthan has now quashed that criminal complaint that is the FIR in other words on the grounds that the words referred in the slogan smash Brahminical patriarchy cannot be construed as having any direct link with the religious sentiments of any section of society. The court said that the phrase which has been castigated as offending in the FIR may be construed as laying a challenge to the sociological concepts of a particular section gender of the Brahmin community. But by no stretch of imagination can it be perceived that these words can even remotely be considered as hurting the religious sentiments of any citizen of India. Nor the scene can be interpreted as creating a religion based rift in any section of society. The words in the poster at best convey according to the court the feelings of the concerned person regarding being strongly opposed to the Brahminical patriarchal system and desires of denouncing the same. Whether or not to follow or oppose the patriarchal system in the society is a matter of personal choice and cannot be thrust down anyone's throat. Hence, this criminal matter which I feel could have taken an ugly turn against Jack Dorsey and Anna Vetika has been put to rest at least for the time being unless the aggrieved complainant prefers an appeal against the said high court order.


This study aimed to estimate freezing injury using a vegetative index developed from hyperspectral imagery on 6-6 leaf stage canola plants subjected to minus 10 degrees Celsius for six hours and imaged at different thawing times. NDVI and TVI were calculated, and while NDVI increased initially and then decreased at eight hours, TVI gradually decreased with increased duration of thawing. The indices differentiated frozen from control plants and within the freezing treatments, suggesting that recent advancements in low-altitude remote sensing can enable early estimation of frost damage.

Why would special collections slash archives want family heirlooms like old photos and letters? Well, first I think I want to touch on that, you know, a lot of times people think, if people even know what an archive is, then they usually do think about at a university that our library would have the university's records and be the university's archives, which is true and is of course a very crucial part of what we do. But we do also collect and preserve things related to just, you know, the culture and the history of our area. And so that does come from the personal papers of people, of families, local organizations. And, you know, family heirlooms are some of the most unique things that there are.  But their material can really give insight into a specific time, a specific place, a culture. And so, you know, those are definitely things that we love to have.  People like to kind of see that personal side of history. And so that's definitely something that, you know, we like. And especially if it's, you know, a family that has collected material over the course of time, so over many generations, that's also really cool to have and can be a great research tool for people to sort of see how things have changed or stayed the same. So I think, I like to think of personal photos, personal heirlooms as sort of like little microcosms of history that then people can use either on their own or to supplement, you know, other research that they're doing with maybe some bigger, more kind of like mass produced things. Yeah, that's great. Absolutely. Alicia, Chris, would you have anything to add to that? Well, I could just add to that kind of from the current perspective of what we're looking at. I've gotten a lot of questions on what was campus like back in 1918 during the Spanish flow. And so we have the local student newspaper and, you know, we have some letters from students that were going home or, you know, not on campus or joining the war effort at the time. And so it really does sort of tell the tale of what was happening both on campus and in Knoxville during the Spanish flow. So, and that story can help us sort of understand maybe what we're experiencing today and how students are experiencing it. Obviously they weren't taking Zoom classes back then. It was a little bit different experience since there was the war effort going on. A lot of the male students were not on campus at that point. So we had a larger female population and homecoming was canceled the year before. And so was a lot of the sporting events as well. So we've seen things like this before, but the student experience and them talking about how they were, you know, you know, sad that their favorite things were canceled or maybe they didn't have the same experience that they had in years prior, but that, you know, that they were helping out with the war effort, making bandages and masks, actually, in a room in the library at the time. So, I mean, it's a really kind of unique experience to look at that and look at the efforts that everyone is put in currently and how that they're very similar. And the student's experiences are very similar even though we have all this technology now. Yeah, that's a great specific example for sure.


Let's take our crew, still rooted to the foot of the Ligue 1 table. Nine points from safety, currently growing Wesley's side. And they've lost their last three, including here against Peterborough at the weekend. Five wins in ten for crew. Much better in the last few weeks. Here's Zocco, making room for the shot and squeezing the ball beyond Neil Ethridge in the crew goal. And five minutes gone, Francois Zocco and Matty's third goal in five games. And put Stevenage in front. Just the boost they needed. They look for points at the bottom to try and survive. Graham Wesley and Steve Davis to two many charge. Here's Moore. Moore's ball in. He's headed wide by Anike. And the clash of heads will possibly need a bit of treatment here. Pogba goes for the return. Matty is Pogba. Byron Moore. Tootle. There's Moore on the overlap and Anike free header. Chris Day pushes the ball onto the bar. Dowty. Still going Dowty, no challenge. Ethridge makes the save. The crew continue to press in search of an equaliser. Good running again by Byron Moore. Pogba's header onto the roof of the net. Stevenage pick up just their third win in 14 games for Graham Wesley. Vital three points towards survival.


Hello, this is Peter Pitch, I'm the Associate General Counsel of Intel. I'm just back from the ITU balancing facilitation versus participation panel. And in that panel, we discussed the proper role of the ITU. I answered that question by saying the ITU has both an important facilitation and participation role. In participation, it has a core competency in allocating and assigning frequencies and satellite spots. That job is important, it's going to get more important. In terms of facilitation, I think the ITU increasingly is serving a useful role in providing an exchange of best known methods. I'm a big fan of the ITU telecom world and the global symposium of regulators. Two ITU events where regulators and government officials get together and consider what works. And in our panel, I discussed the importance of focusing on enabling markets to adjust to the very uncertain, fast changing world out there and then focusing in on where governments need to do work. Which is making sure that broadband is available in high cost areas and enabling new uses like education and medicine by eliminating government impediments to the use of ICT. Thank you.


First of all, congratulations to exchange for media for 9th year of a very successful event where I have come earlier also in number of times and had a very good feedback from people and Anurag Bhattra for keeping the flag held high through hail, storm and high water I must say, well done. I was in Doha this week and there was an international conference about 45 countries, 300 delegates on social media and challenges and I was very shocked that there were only two people from India besides me there was a person from International Federation of Journalism and I asked them that what happened and they said no one came from India. So, what is happening in India is especially in social media sector that we are becoming very opaque and there is not much transparency. Social media and digital platforms are accused of being very trivial, entertainment oriented. So, just to bust that myth I have some slides which we will show and then I speak very little I will be very happy to take questions because my job earlier as an anchor was to ask questions and now I really want to engage with people and discuss with them because you get to learn more when people are asking questions then sitting in a studio and telling them what is going on. So, let us quickly begin with this presentation can we have that please sorry yeah I work for Go News India which we started three years ago and it is a digital platform for news and it is a what we thought was the first television on your mobile set because people were moving very frantically from television to mobile and so far it has been very successful we are very happy with its progress and with friends like Anurag who helped us a lot in this endeavor and it is a new vision which we thought we will put together. So, this is the situations right now and that is why we went on and help that in India despite such a huge penetration of mobile we are still lagging a bit because in terms of mobile phone but not smartphone we are still 40 percent and 35 percent of people with smartphones which works out to nearly 350 or 400 million people which is a huge number when you are talking in terms of Europe and other smaller countries. And this is what Navika is not here I just wanted to tell her this is what is been happening to the news channels television channels 400 of them in India that between 15 to 18 the growth was about 18 percent and all of a sudden in 2018 the growth dipped to just 1 percent. So, this is the number of people watching TV news on TV is going down when I was in television the total percentage of people watching news on television was 11 percent today it is come down to only 7 only 7 percent of the total television genre is news and out of which now lately we are seeing that the English bit of the news has gone down even then less than 1 percent. So, Hindi is become bigger and very importantly for a country like India the languages have become stronger when it comes to news on television. Bread industry if you look at this we are doing very well as a country as our FMCG industry whole sector consumption goes up ads are increasing and this is really bread and butter for all of us in television or digital genre. So, from 68000 crore it is got about the projection is that we will be more than nearly doubling it in next 5 years. So, that is a very good growth which is more than 12 percent in terms of market. Now, where is this coming from this is very important this is basically coming from television largely 39 percent print 29 percent. And now digital media is really catching up it was 20 percent in 2018 and people tell me 2019 the numbers are not in yet that the digital media share in the entire ad pie has actually crossed print media. So, we are seeing the same trends as we saw in Europe and in western countries in America. So, this is how the ad spends are going. We do a lot of stories on media because as a digital platform we have no competition in terms of that he said he said we just do a lot of stories on this thing and one of our motto is to report a lot on connectivity besides health education agriculture and the subjects people forget these days. Now, how this social media ad spend is laid out the largest is on social media which are there for everyone to see I was shocked to hear that the number of WhatsApp users have gone ahead of 400 million in India which is absolutely huge it is almost everyone who has got a smartphone in India has a WhatsApp and that is how the telecom majors have to deal with in the coming years because you are dealing with WhatsApp now which is owned by Facebook and I still consider it as a social media platform like Instagram which is also owned by Facebook. So, WhatsApp has become not only a big mover in terms of information it has also become the largest source of information for people I am not talking about news I am just talking about information. Indian political parties they are now organized on WhatsApp, Bharti Janta party has the largest WhatsApp for the lack of any word group and they can reach out to millions of people if they want to put out any information and that is why it is becoming major mover of information. The second category is paid search which goes all to Google because that is the only I think 95 percent Indians use Google or Chrome. So, that is paid search which goes there. Video online is becoming very big now and that was the idea of launching Go news because short videos local language was the prime mover in terms of discovery of news. So, video online video is becoming very big. Navika was talking about her videos going 130,000, 150,000 some of our videos they just cross a million within hours and so, that is the strength of social media platforms and news on social media. Display ads we all know that is very expensive, but that again display ads mostly are going to either Safari and in India to Chrome and that is again Google. So, 85 percent of the money when we are talking about social media and we are talking about online goes only to two companies and that is Amazon and Google and that is what one has to keep in mind that where people are spending Facebook sorry Facebook and Google not Amazon, Amazon is a different side. Now India has 1 billion downloads of apps and this is staggering number 1 billion downloads of app, but it was the largest non-organic market app flyers tells us the Google play has not released the numbers, but now they are players in the area which tell us what is going on in the sphere. And there if you look at the numbers the organic app downloads are going down 9 percent minus 9 in one year while the paid app loads which you must be getting for your Paytm, for your Zomato's, for your all kind of other Amazon, Flipkart they are going up very high and there is a cost involved in that of getting people to download your apps and 1 billion is a huge number when it comes to app downloads, but and there is a big but here India is still a very poor social media economy and this is the reason why it is so poor. Because our revenue per user is very low and these are annual figures you can imagine that on entertainment is 111 rupees, so when we are talking about people going on Netflix and Amix players and movies and all that it is it is it is nothing, when you it comes to shopping even there the numbers are going down it was 338 rupees in 2017 and now in 2018 it was 172 the numbers of 19 are still coming in same with travel where now the ICRTC which is the railways the monopoly in India and all your spice jets and travelmonkey.coms and all that I mean this is this is the figure for you 270 rupees a year per user of app. So, that is that is where the problem is Indians do not have money or they are not spending that much money online because they are still doubtful and hesitant in going online and spending money and that figure is certified by cash in circulation in India and by the way now there is more cash in circulation in India than it was before 2016 when the government wanted the country denotified 1000 rupee and 500 rupee notes and wanted to become online is and this includes all your paytm's your beam app and your UPI and everything. So, India is still a cash economy and that is why the money is not there in online and social media that much that it should be going by the economy we have which is now the 6th largest economy in the world here is the rub now. If you look at the change of percentage and digital ad spending it is spiked and now it is going down it is spiked in 2016 at 110 percent and now it is down to 20 percent you will be 20 percent next year as to 2021. And digital ad spending is increasing, but it is not flying as high as it was initially in 2016. So, thank you. So, that is all I have, but now I will just ask you some something more I would like to say here about the social media and where the problem is. The problem as I just told you about downloading app and non-organic in the digital space people are still unable to monetize huge numbers of views. Now if you are on WhatsApp and your video goes viral on WhatsApp there is no way that you can monetize that. On Facebook if you look at the numbers now Facebook is making less than 1 percent of its entire global revenue from India. So, now Facebook India's the subscription base of Facebook in India is the largest, but it revenue does not come from India. So, that is that is one big thing. If you look at other social media platforms like Twitter and all their revenue from India on a huge consumer base it is even less than 1 percent globally. So, it is very clear that Indians do not want to pay for information they want everything free. And that is what Navika was also talking about that we have this culture where your information comes from your Chai Kadhaba from the office gossip and earlier it used to come from nice and people who will travel house to house. So, we as a country do not want to pay for news. The largest circulating newspaper in India costs more than 20 rupees, but we pay only two and a half rupees for that because people do not want do not want to pay for news. And on digital they would not subscribe to the newspaper as they do in Europe and in America and other developed economies. And on online especially on social media and digital platforms the only way you can successfully monetize is by subscription. And even in the west because of social media because news is available so freely everywhere that now I was hearing that in Amazon is getting news. I mean all kind of platforms who have a large base wants to give you the news and it is all free. Google news is the largest news player and until very recently they did not hire any journalists but everything is algorithm based. They just pick up stuff which is going on there and keep pushing it and it has become a huge problem in the west. Mr. Trump is President Trump is going to come here and they are already started another inquiry whether in his 2020 election Russia is going to play a role because the news online can be pushed by anywhere who is paying money to someone somewhere. And that is the transparency I talk about and that is the openness of the system that we talk about and that has to be dealt with and that is very important. If the future of digital media in news has to be secured that we need to know that how many people have actually installed their Twitter app. How many people are actually using Facebook for entertainment or for news? We have no data all these big companies that come out don't come out with such data which is specific even to their largest subscription base which is India. I have gone through annual report on annual report of Twitter's of Facebook's and everyone and even Google. I don't get that information because it is not there because first they want to increase their database and then they want to convert the whole thing into a commercial proposition. So, these people are not in the business of news for news they are in the business of news for business and that is why the next big thing which is going to shake up India is WhatsApp pay. Amazon has always started its pay if WhatsApp starts a bank it would be the largest bank in the world and that is what they are waiting for that once they get government regulatory clearances they are going to turn into a bank. So, you can actually send money on WhatsApp and receive money on WhatsApp and you can imagine that 400 million base the kind of operation that would be and that has got nothing to do with news. So, the big players online are there for business and the small players online who are there for news are unable to monetize and that is the biggest challenge India is facing right now in terms of news and online and social media. I have just come back to Doha I just come back to that whole the situation. There were serious concerns shown by organizations like International Human Rights Commission, Amnesty etcetera that how news is being pushed by third parties in different countries in the world and that is one big thing which I want to just underline here and how only transparency by the big tech platforms can help us decode that and put it in perspective then how that will save democracies. This is serious I am just reading this book that how social media is changing democracies across the world and if in democracies the role of media is very important as we all know to inform people to inform people so they can make right choices and that is under threat because the people who have the backbone and platforms are not interested in democracies or in news they are interested in their business and they are pushing forward. So, that is how things come to this thing I have been in print, television, digital and even advocacy but I have never seen the media at such crossroads as it is right now globally.


What's going on guys welcome back to channel critical overload here's some I'm Megan in this video here again today now It's been a while since I talked about Megan because it has been dead silent about Megan But we know Megan is expected to be like our new updated Chuckie Annabelle Tiffany doll the next big thing for killer dolls Hopefully Definitely the look of the doll is the thing that I think has a lot of people came this this has a chance to be something big If it's done right not to say it has to be the best movie ever But if this doll and this new iteration of a killer doll is able to capture The eyes of millions of people and be profitable for Blumhouse and Universal alike Then you will be able to of course branch out of franchise probably for the wackiest things you've ever seen in recent memory Really released to killer dolls. So recently film updates who is usually putting out some reliable information when it retains to Things to expect going on with movies and of course cast updates all that type of stuff They put out a tweet saying that the teaser for horror movie Megan is expected to be released alongside the black phone now The black phone comes out on June 24th. I believe June 24th the week of that So if it actually is attached to that that means we would get it that we could get it sometime this month And we'll get to see I assume some of the footage that was shown at cinema con because I know I come All here already already on a video talking about how it's cinema con We show we were shown footage of Megan basically causing somebody to get pushed into or not get pushed But stumble into what is led led to believe a car accident because she was defending the girl that she's protecting of The niece in this in this movie who's portrayed by I believe violent McGraw That's what I'm assuming because we haven't actually had any confirmation. That's who violates playing But it seems like that's the case the story for Megan again follows Gemma who's portrayed by Allison Williams Who is a brilliant roboticist at a toy company who uses artificial intelligence to develop Megan a lifelike doll program to be a kid's greatest companion And a parent's greatest ally after unexpectedly gaining custody of her orphan niece Gemma enlist the help of the Megan prototype a decision that has unimaginable Consequences so again what I think you have a chance here with this series is that with Knowing it's a prototype of Course the events here would bring in the question. Okay, well, should we even still go forward with Megan now? Of course in a sequel if they managed to get a sequel I can already see the narrative being similar to what you have Which house played to let's keep going. That was just a prototype We've done all the tests to show that this is not gonna happen again They release Megan dolls someone gets a specific doll Same thing happens with that doll with a different kid Or if it even actually if you want to say bring in Violet McGraw again if she makes out of this one alive You can bring her back and somehow do some type of Andy Chucky dynamic between Megan and whoever Violet's character name will be So when it pertains to this teaser we're getting I just hope we get to see some of that wild action that we've had described That was shown at CinemaCon with Megan in action. I want to see it I want to see how weird and obnoxious it's going to look I just want to see how hokey this movie will be just to have set my expectations that this okay Will either be something that's highly horribly horror based while being comedic or it's just going to be pure Insanity taken very seriously with horror rooted above the comedy But you have sprinkles of comedy present throughout this teaser that I Assuming we're gonna get by the end of this month if it happens with being attached to the black phone now Obviously, of course, I think the other thing here is that Violet McGraw has a sister who is in the black phone I do believe there is a sibling of violet McGraw that's actually in the black phone So, yeah, when I look at the cast for the black phone Madeline or Madeline McGraw who from what I've seen is the sister of violet So I'm not saying that that's why they're doing it because they a sister has another movie coming out But mostly is because they're both Universal pictures they're both attached to universal both attached to Blumhouse to from what I remember what I for what I recall So I can't wait to see this first look teaser Can't wait to see how Megan comes to life by the time January runs around because that's when it's coming It's coming in January of 2023 releasing a teaser now. It's not too soon We're six months deep into into them into the year by the time this teaser comes out if it's coming out later this month You're you'd be seven months deep Which would leave July August September October November December you'd have you'd have another six months of marketing You'd have a couple more months to lay dormant before you come back Put out a full-fledged trailer go on your marketing run put out some official steals and get us all hyped to experience Megan on the big screen in 2023 of January because I know some people say oh that's too soon the movie's not coming till January We're again almost seven. We would almost be seven months deep by the time this first teaser comes out Six months if it comes out in June actually comes out in June because again That's what film updates is stating and I will leave they're stating that's the expectation anyway They're not saying it's actually confirmed, but it's expected that we'll get the teaser this month associated with the black phones released later This month, so we'll see how that how that comes to fruition if it does and I'll leave a link to that tweet down in the description So releasing the teaser now it's not too soon if anything. It's the perfect timing to do it You can show it just enough to get your audience enticed and just show it could be something that's a minute long It could be something that's 50 seconds long. I know a lot of you for a teaser you prefer that something's shorter You know because when you have a teaser these days, they're basically the length of a trailer What they do now is like you have these teasers at a minute and 30 seconds And then the trailers two minutes and 45 seconds or three minutes long in the matter of time You're done watching the teaser and the trailer you seem like a lot of the scenes from the movie It's like okay. Well, I'm not gonna watch Certain trailers or teasers anymore because you know, they are very different from how I remember they were growing up teasers used to be maybe 15 seconds 30 seconds some teasers I think of like the screen 3 teaser They didn't even really show footage from the movie They would just show you like maybe recaps of stuff or just like it will be this suspenseful music with haunting imagery on your screen and Bold text to like get you hyped and get you to read and get invested Before you get your footage reveal with the actual trailer, but now the teasers and the trailers They're showing footage left and right the trailer just a little bit more Exposure at this at this stage. So we'll see what happens if it comes out What are your thoughts on Megan? Do you want to see Megan take over the reins of Chucky not to say again? This is me just mostly joking I don't think Megan is going to be able to Garner the acclaim of Chucky as much as I think Megan has a chance to at least be relevant for Some time if this is a successful movie. I could see us getting maybe two three entries I'm a sucker for a trilogy That's all I really have to say I'm a sucker for a trilogy if they go beyond three fine four five six max I just think that Megan by the time it's all said and done if it becomes a franchise There's not something that's going to be talked about for many years to come That's just me already right now after seeing this movie though I could have a different opinion on it But let me know just think about it down in the comment section below if you have already of course make sure you subscribe Turn up post a kitchen in this video in the description links from social media accounts on Facebook Twitter Instagram You can message me there of course limits any movies news or reviews You like me to cover in the future with all that in mind guys. I will see you in the next video


What a day it was here today at Owings Mills Gymnasium, Stevenson getting the 70-60 victory on senior day over Albright to my left, Dania Campbell, Kelly Johnson to my right, Olivia Coleman. What a senior day. I'm going to start all the way down, Dania, a special moment before the game. Can you put it in words what that meant to you to be able to participate with that? It really meant a lot to be able to shoot again. And it really meant a lot that Kelly helped set that all up for me. I would have never thought of that idea. So I'm really grateful and appreciative of that moment. Kelly, it was really an emotional day all throughout. Can you describe what all of this has meant to the senior day festivities and then the way you guys put together perhaps your best performance of the season? Yeah, I mean, definitely for the senior stuff. I mean, I don't really have words. It's kind of hard to say anything. But thank you to everyone, the team, everyone that comes out and support every game, my parents, the whole everyone, there's a lot of behind the scenes that no one really sees. And then, luckily, we just had the energy converted over from the first moment of the game. They did go on their runs. But luckily, we were able to kind of come back from that and keep our lead. So can't be much happier going into playoffs. Olivia, how about talking up Kelly, whenever this team needed a shot in the second half? She was there to knock it down. The pride that you had in this entire group today to put together this performance. Well, it was just a really good game. Everyone came out to play really hard. And I think everyone just really came together as to celebrate the seniors as well. And I think it was just a really good game that we played. How excited are you to know you get to come back here now on Wednesday? How much does that mean to you? I'm very excited. I don't have to travel anymore. Kelly, what about you?  Definitely better. We always want to have as many home games as possible. So definitely excited for this one. All right, let's do some shout outs. Nia, I'm going to start with you. It's been a couple of games. Who can we shout out for you as you wind down your time here at Stevenson? I'm going to shout out my grandmother, who watches every game online. Texts me at her every game. Playing or not playing. So shout out to her. I love that. Kelly, more shout outs. I'm going to have to shout out my sister this game. Somehow they got her in the Mustang at the beginning of the game. So yeah, there you go, Kate. Thanks. And what about Brandy showing up to that? I know. That was really surprise. That was awesome. That was awesome. Olivia, I feel like there was about 50 of your family members that were here today. Who are we shouting out? I guess my mom and my brothers. This is the first time I think all three of them have come at the same time to the same game. So it was just really good to have them all three here. Guys, this was a lot of fun today. Congratulations on a massive win on a great day. And best of luck. We'll see you back here on Wednesday, all right? Thank you. Denia Campbell, Kelly Johnson, Olivia Coleman, all the seniors as we celebrate senior day on GoMustangSports.com.


Strange weird friends. They are amazing. They are the people you come to when you're bored, happy, and sad. They are everything you need. Though friends can be nice and happy, some can be a bit weird unlike other people. Take for example, happy friend. The person I regret becoming his friend on Roblox. It was a normal day on Roblox. I had just gone online and I was ready to play some of my favorite games. I was going to play some obby games until I found a game called Let's Be Friends. Smiley face with only one player in it. I saw that the owner was playing in it. I decided to join it because I didn't really have anything to do at the time. The game didn't have much in it. All it had was a sign with an unsettling face on it. I think it was a happy face, but it didn't look like it. I noticed the owner, happy friend, had a strange outfit. He came up to me and said Let's Be Friends. Smiley face until I would respond to him. Me, why? Happy, please? Me, fine. Happy, yay. He started to get annoying so I left without saying goodbye. I started playing some games on the front page to see if I could find something. I started to play some many games, but every time I played them, Happy would just join me right after the game would load. I didn't want to play with him in my server, so I went to settings so he couldn't join me anymore. I began to play some games I found on the front page. Even though the join game button wouldn't appear for him, he still joined me. This was really annoying me, so I decided to block and unfriend him. After that, I saw that he began to message me more. Please be my friend. I'm sad, please be my friend. Why are you so mean, please be my friend? After a while, he stopped sending his annoying messages. I never knew what happened after that. Hopefully I never see him again. My experience wasn't the best with him and it probably could be the same with you. If you ever see him, just leave so you don't have to go through what just happened with me. Hopefully we won't ever see him again.


Hello, in this presentation, we will have multiple choice questions related to the closing process and financial statements. First question, which is not a result of the closing process? a. Transfer temporary account balances to the capital account b. Makes the draws account zero c. Makes revenue and expense account zero d. Has no effect on owner's capital account and e. Capital increases by revenue and decreases by draws Back to the original question, then we'll go through and see if we can narrow down some of our choices. Which is not a result of the closing process? So we're looking for what is not the result of the closing process. So remember what the closing process is, closing temporary accounts meaning income statement accounts and the draws account to the capital account. Okay, so which is not a result of the closing process? a. Transfer temporary account balances to the capital account So that's what we're doing, that's the closing process. We're going to transfer those temporary accounts, those income statement accounts and those draws accounts to the capital account, not that one. b. Makes the draws account zero Now this is a little bit more tricky because the draws account usually is a little more confusing for most people, but the draws account is a temporary account and therefore will be made zero, will be closed out to the capital account as well. So it's not that one, that one will happen. c. Makes revenue and expense accounts zero and revenue and expense accounts are temporary accounts. So when we have temporary accounts, they are revenue and expense accounts as well as they're not the only temporary accounts, but they are temporary accounts and they're most of the temporary accounts, the other one being draws for a sole proprietor, dividends for a corporation. So it's not going to be that one, that's what happens. d. Has no effect on the owner capital account Now I don't know about that because the owner capital is a kind of a permanent account, it's a balance sheet account, but it's really what we close out to. So I think that might be it, but we'll read the last one here. e. Capital increases by revenue and decreases by draws. And that really is what happens in the closing process, meaning we're going to close out revenue to the capital account and we're going to close out draws to the capital account. So it's not that one. Now note that d. Has to be this one here and note that it kind of has to be that way because of some of these other choices. This last one for example says capital increases by revenue and decreases by draws. Well if the capital is changing, then d has to be happening and I mean e has to happen and d says has no effect on the owner's capital account. So we can't have something that doesn't have an effect on the owner's capital account be true and e be true which says capital increases. And we can see that a also says transfer temporary account balances to the capital account. So if we transfer temporary accounts to the capital account that means the capital account is going to change and therefore we cannot have a be true and e be true and d be true because d says that the capital account has no effect to it. So note that if we look at some of the answers here we can kind of eliminate and say well then it has to be d. The capital account is changing by this amount and it has to be changing because it says it's changing at least two other choices. So once again the answer which is not a result of the closing process d has no effect on the owner's capital account. Next question assets liabilities and equity accounts are a nominal accounts b temporary accounts c real accounts d permanent accounts e income statement accounts once again question of and then we'll go through and see if we can eliminate some of these choices. Assets liabilities and equity accounts are note that those are all kind of balance sheet accounts. Those are the balance sheet accounts. So a says nominal accounts now we may not know the nominal so we're going to leave that for now b says temporary accounts now the temporary accounts are going to be the income statement accounts and the draws account and these are going to be the balance sheet accounts so it's not going to be the temporary accounts c says real accounts now real accounts doesn't really ring a bell at all to me so real accounts might not be a term that we that we'd be using but I'm going to leave it for now d says permanent accounts so permanent accounts that sounds kind of good because we know that the assets liabilities and equity are those that will not be closed out in the closing process so d looks pretty good to me e says income statement accounts the income statement accounts are temporary accounts that will be closed out to the equity section so it's not e now note that e income statement accounts and b are similar because they both refer to temporary accounts temporary accounts include the income statement accounts types now I'm going to go ahead and say that d the permanent accounts looks good and the main reason is because we're studying or we're looking at the closing process and the financial statements and that deals with permanent accounts and temporary accounts so we should be we're going to be dealing with permanent accounts and temporary accounts a lot and so that I think that's going to be the answer I'm going to eliminate c real accounts because I don't really remember that in our terminology that I'm not sure that's going to be a term that relates specifically to what we're talking about although they're all probably real accounts and it's true in a way we're going to say that a nominal accounts believe that's another term for temporary accounts and therefore once again we have the same kind of terminology temporary nominal and income statement accounts which all refer to in some way in some types of the temporary a temporary type of account going to the next question next question to common subgroups for libraries a current liabilities and debt liabilities b liabilities and current liabilities c general liabilities and applied liabilities d current liabilities and long term liabilities and e assigned at liabilities and long-term liabilities once again to and subgroups for current liabilities. We're taking a look at the balance sheet and we're basically breaking it up into those subgroups. So first we have the current liabilities, current liabilities and debt liabilities. Now the current liabilities sound correct, I mean the current liabilities are within a year. Debt liabilities doesn't sound quite right, I won't cross it out yet. B, liabilities and current liabilities. That sounds kind of right, but it's a little backwards. You would think current liabilities would be first and liabilities sounds like the total grouping. Not really a subgroup of it. It sounds like the total of it. So I'm gonna cross that out. I don't think that's it. C says the general liabilities and applied liabilities. These terms that just doesn't sound familiar to me at all. General liabilities and applied liabilities in the context of a normal kind of balance sheet I don't think is gonna be included so I'm gonna cross that out. D says current liabilities and long-term liabilities. There's our current liabilities again and long-term liabilities. So that one looks pretty good. And then E says assigned liabilities and long-term liabilities. So rather than current liabilities we now have assigned liabilities. That doesn't sound correct to me. I think current liabilities is the one. So we're left with A and D. Question once again. Two common subgroups for liabilities. A current liabilities and debt liabilities or D current liabilities and long-term liabilities. And I believe of the two we're gonna say D current liabilities and long-term liabilities. Answer once again. Two common subgroups for liabilities. D current liabilities and long-term liabilities.


LOOK AT THIS THING! IT'S FREAKING BEAUTIFUL! There's no way that a game that comes inside a box like THIS could be BAD! Right? THIS is my video on why I refuse to review Fire Emblem- No, I'm kidding.  Ha ha ha! Uh, it took me a while to make this video! Obviously, the game came out a couple weeks ago and, uh, Nintendo doesn't ever give out early coffee to games anymore. So, I just had to grab it on release day and play through it and review it as soon as I could. I have a lot of things to say about this game, because it's a very big game. Obviously, I grabbed this big Seasons of Warfare pack, I pre-ordered it as soon as the pre-orders went live, and GameStop even sent me these nifty little badges, which I hated at first, but now after playing the game, I actually kinda like them and I plan on wearing my house's badge. Team Black Eagles, who's with me? I mean, it's okay if you didn't pick that house. We'll make mistakes. You'll do better next time. I have so much to say about this game that there isn't even time to fit a sponsor into the video. I just gotta get going before it's too late. So, pre-emptively like this video, you might end up hating it, but just like it anyway. Subscribe if you're new around here and let's talk about one of the best freaking games to come out this year, possibly even the best. The year isn't over yet, there's no way of knowing. Until the end of the year.  In Fire Emblem 3 Houses, you play as a guy who has sleeves but refuses to use them. I mean, I play as a guy. You can pick between female and male, so maybe the female character uses her sleeves if she has sleeves. Don't know. Haven't tried that yet. Maybe I'll next play through. I'm getting sidetracked already. Actually, speaking of the main character, who you can name whatever you want, but technically his name is Blythe, or Blythe, or Blythe-y. It's definitely Blythe, there's no way it's the other two. You don't really know anything about him or I guess yourself as you play through most of the story with only small clues to go on here and there. In fact, your character doesn't even know really anything about his own father. It seems like you learn about the father the same time he does. He doesn't know his father's age. In fact, he doesn't even know his own age. I don't know how this guy has got to this point in life, where he's by the way a professor at a school now and doesn't even know how old he is. I'm not gonna question it because it's a really good game.  I went into Fire Emblem 3 Houses completely blind. I have dabbled in other Fire Emblem games, but I wouldn't say I've put more than five hours into the entire series as a whole. So if anything, I've played Fire Emblem more in Smash Bros. than in its own franchise. Because I really like Roy. Heh heh. So going into the franchise pretty much blind, I didn't really know what to expect, but something I definitely didn't expect was for Fire Emblem 3 Houses to borrow so many elements from the Persona series. And I'm actually a massive fan of Persona. In fact, I would say Persona 4 is my favorite JRPG of all time. So playing Fire Emblem 3 Houses and realizing that it's pretty much Persona, but with a Fire Emblem battle mechanic around it, I was down to clown around in Fire Emblem Persona Town. I mean, to start with, you play on a calendar day by day, and you have a set amount of actions you can do before you go to bed and move on to the next day in the week. And then, well, there's just so many similarities. And we're gonna get to those, but first I want to talk about what you actually do in the game. So you find yourself in this school, and you get to know all the students a little bit, and all the students fall into three different houses, led by one of three different captains, and all of those three characters are destined for something greater. Like Adelgard is destined to be an emperor, the dude I don't remember his name of because I didn't pick that house, is destined to be a king, and then Claude is destined to be a duke, I believe. Could be wrong on that one. And that's another thing! We're gonna get to it very soon, but whatever house you pick, you get to know those characters very well. I could tell you everything about my students, and not really at all with the other students, and I really love that, because it adds a lot to the replayability, and you're gonna get the scope of that pretty soon. I heard a lot of people pick Black Eagle because... Adelgard. I usually always lean towards the red teams. Going into three houses, I was determined not to pick the red team this time.  I picked Golden Deer with Claude, because he honestly seems like the most interesting guy out of the three of them. But then going to the school, we get to meet the students. I believe there's eight students in each class, and I found every single student in Black Eagle interesting or intriguing, and I wanted to learn more about them, and there was a couple of characters here and there in the other classes, like the beefcake guy in Golden Deer. I really like him, his personality reminded me of Goku, but as a whole, I didn't really like the other personalities. So even though ultimately I preferred Claude, there was just so many more characters in Black Eagle I wanted to learn about, so I picked that house, and I really made the right choice. Even though I wanted to play through again and pick the other houses to see what that's like, because, oh boy, doesn't the story get really interesting depending on what team you pick? I love that I know my students so well. There's so much dialogue between myself and each one of them, and I have very different relationships with each one of them, and then they even have their own relationships with each other. And I thoroughly appreciated that the entire game is fully voice-acted. There isn't a smidgen of dialogue that isn't read out loud. In a lot of JRPGs, the intense walls of tech start to bore a hole in my brain 50 hours in, but the fantastic, that is really great voice acting throughout the entire game really helped me remain invested. And it also helps that the story is extremely interesting, well-written, and featuring many, many exciting characters. When it comes to how the gameplay is, there is so much to unpack. I've even had a few friends tell me they love JRPGs, but Fire Emblem scares them due to how complex the gameplay appears. And I was never worried about that jumping into this game. In fact, I was excited to dive deep into some in-depth gameplay mechanics. And while there is a lot more going into Fire Emblem than other JRPGs, at the same time, it's all very, very straightforward. It's not confusing in the slightest and absolutely nothing to be scared of. The game does a fantastic job at laying out all the mechanics in front of you for you to clearly see and learn at your own pace. It doesn't overwhelm you all at once, and it's pretty simple at the end of the day. That being said, when I break all of this down, it's gonna seem like a lot. Remember, I'm cramming all of this into like a 15-minute video, and most of this stuff you kind of learn and experience over hours and hours and hours of gameplay. Okay, so to start, I love how many different ways there are to level up your character and your students. Not only do you have many different aspects and traits to each character you can level up, but there are multiple ways of teaching them those things to level them up. For example, you obviously play the role as a professor for your students, so each week you have the chance to lecture them and lead them during classes. Each student will have their own subjects they're concentrating on. For example, my Bernie is focusing on her bow skills. So during class, I teach her more about that and so on with my other students. I can set them weekly goals to complete, like taking care of the stables, and that will help them grow as well. You can also even invite guest lecturers in to teach your students. You can pick another professor or someone more skilled than you in a certain area to teach your students something new. And depending on what that lecturer can offer the class will depend on which students actually even turn up. And of course, there's also learning by doing. On the battlefield, students level up as they attack, heal, or contribute to the battle in some way. And sometimes during lessons, the students might approach you and let you know that they feel like they're better suited for another field or class. And you can help guide them in the right direction, or if you feel like you don't really want them to be focusing on that thing, you can shut it down and keep them focused on what they need, or really what you need. And don't think it ends there because that's just the beginning. Think about it. If you're going into battle, would you rather be standing next to a stranger or someone you trust, a friend? Building relationships between these characters help immensely. You can talk with students, get to know them, invite them to tea or a meal. You can give them gifts or find lost items throughout the world and return them to them. Listen to your students' conversations with each other as they grow and get to know each other too. Sometimes characters will leave notes asking questions about their studies or even their life in general and you can offer them advice. Sometimes you give good advice and other times you don't. That was good advice. Vegetables or sleep ain't making you any taller. All of this will help build bonds between your characters, which will directly affect their performance on the battlefield, boosting attacks or creating a stronger defense. And most of that will also boost their morale and keeping them in high spirits will increase the amount of knowledge they will learn and maintain during classes. And then, as I said, depending on what house you pick, we'll vastly change all of these experiences as well. You'll have completely different units on the battlefield, wanting to learn completely different things and interacting with you and each other and say it with me, completely different ways. And it's not all about your students either. There's also you and your character. Just because you're a professor doesn't mean you can't learn a lot more too. Not only from other knowledgeable elders around campus, but even your own students. Oh, and the reward for gaining all this knowledge beyond the obvious is that you can sit down for exams and you have a better chance of passing. These exams give yourself or your students a class that will help further boost their stats. Again, all of that seems like a lot and there's even more on top of it. But it's really not that overwhelming as you're playing. It all kind of just makes sense. The only real overwhelming parts is for one, deciding what you're going to do on the day you're given a choice. If you want to explore, hold a lecture, go into battle or rest. That's always a big toss up.  It really is every single day. Every single character will have something new to say and then you have to run around this campus completing goals and quests and finding lost items while you talk to everyone all over again. Most games like this, I enjoy the strategic gameplay as much as the next guy. Games like Wargroove, for example, which was a perfect tie of a game while I waited for Fire Emblem to release. It was fun for sure, but I had no connection with the characters. Okay, maybe the main characters to some extent from what I saw in the story, but that was about it. The generic units on the battlefield, they were just pawns to be placed in battle, live or die as long as I won and my main characters survived. I didn't care. But in Fire Emblem, they aren't just random units I'm controlling. As corny as it sounds, they truly are my students. I know so much about them. They're their weaknesses, their strengths, their personalities. I've taught them everything they know. Their failures feel like my failures. I don't want to see a single one of them fall on the battlefield. Heck, Lin Hart told me straight up during a conversation we had after class. He hates killing people and wants to focus on his healing white magic. So while I'm playing, I'm doing my best to make him hang back and focus on the healing.  You know, until we're fighting giant beasts and birds and then he's slaughtering things all over the place, but that's a different story. He didn't say anything about that. Oh, and I guess while we're on the battles, I don't think I really have to dive into them too much. Each player takes a turn moving their units, chess pieces, characters, whatever you want to call them around the battlefield. Each unit gets to move once and then do one action. There are exceptions to that rule, obviously, but for the most part, that's the rules. And one thing I really appreciate is that you can hire battalions to work for each individual character. They can do a range of different things from attacking to healing, but the thing that I like is seeing them during the battle animations. It adds to the scale of the battlefield. But if I'm getting nitpicky, there are a few things they could have done a little better and maybe it's just me, but maybe it's not. The inventory menus are clunky and I never got used to them. Trading items between characters is a confusing mess. You only have a few slots to work with for each character, which is fine, but it gets annoying on the battlefield every time you find a rusted bow and it halts the gameplay to ask you what you want to do with it because your character's hands are full. Like, just throw the freaking thing into the convoy. That's obviously what I'm going to do with it. Why can't it automatically just default to the convoy? Same goes for even if I have a free slot. If your character does have one, obviously it just goes on its post no matter what it is or how irrelevant it is to that character. So at the end of every battle, I have to go into the inventory, the clunky inventory, and take out whatever it was and then put it in the convoy myself. That's a very, very small complaint, but when there's already so much to do, the last thing I want to do is constant inventory management, which it feels like that's what it is after every battle. And also, hmm, pretty much the entire story outside of the really amazing animated cutscenes, which I love and there's not nearly enough of. Everything else is delivered by the character standing in front of still background images. Now, this is a perfectly fine way of doing things, even though it's not preferred for me. I did know that's what Fire Emblem was like before going into it, so I can't complain about that. I bought into this knowing. But at the very least, they could have created some cleaner set pieces. Some of the backgrounds are just an eyesore, especially while playing on a TV. It's fine. It doesn't really ruin the experience for me at all, but having some nice, clean, crisp, beautiful background visuals that maybe even have like moving water or something, would add it to the overall polish of the game. Doesn't change anything, doesn't take away from the game, but nicer backgrounds definitely would have added to the game. These are two very, very, very tiny small complaints on an otherwise near perfect package. Honestly, I would give this game an 8, maybe an 8.5, maybe even a 9 out of 10. I am absolutely in love and adoring my experience with Fire Emblem, but having said all of that, there's like a billion cats and dogs throughout the world, which is great, except you can't pet any of them. You can't interact with any of them in any way. In fact, you just go to walk right through them. I think that's just a crawl and unusual form of punishment. And for that, it knocks the game down to a three, a three out of 10. Better luck next time, Fire Emblem. It's still like a solid eight, maybe nine, but a two because of the dogs. Oh, and again, all of that was like the part one of the game. Going into part two. I mean, depending again on what house you picked, it's where things really start to shake up and change. And I don't want to spoil any of it. Almost a completely different direction, but following the same structure, but it's better. It gets a lot better. It gets really interesting. But yeah, it starts going all over the place. A lot of it is really ham-fisted. I just didn't even really pay attention to any of it, but you are picking a house that has a leader in it, a captain that's destined to, you know, as I said, be an emperor or a king or whatever Claude's going to be of the different regions. So, I mean, eventually these people are going to grow up, leave school, be like the leader of people.  All right, whatever.

Hey, flip all over that subscribe button. Click on top of one of these videos because they were probably also good, more fantastic content coming your way soon. Whatever, I don't know when I make it. Sometimes things just work out perfectly. This camera is literally about to die any second and there's only two minutes of space left on the SD card and my video is done. I have nothing left to say other than wait for it to die. Which could happen any second? Oh, there's one more thing I forgot.
