One book I read was just like visualize like what you're gonna do like you know if you want to get married like don't sleep on one side of your bed like or in the middle of your bed leave room for you if you if you want this brand new car leave room in your garage because that car is gonna be in that spot like and at our gym I have this trophy case for my UFC belt my Invicta ballad is and I was like this empty spot right here I kept visualizing my new UFC belt I was like this is where it's going and I kept looking at that like you know every week I would stare at that when we would watch footage and be like this is where my belt's going and I kept thinking that and before the fight I you know ran through my scenario I was gonna go


What is going on guys, today I am back with another Destiny video, now our times within Destiny 1 are coming to an end and well I'm not going to be stupid enough to delete my characters like I've seen some other people doing, I am keeping my characters I've worked hard for them but the materials on those very characters I ain't going to need when Destiny 2 comes out, I mean I don't need them now I'm just stacking it and I just no need for it, so what I'm going to do is I'm going to spend all my materials, unfactions, trying to get the things I still need, now from Future Warcraft the only thing I need is the Road Unraveled Ship, New Monarchy, I need the Cometatorship, Dead Orbit, I need the Fermi Solutions Ship and the Conjurer, I can't even pronounce that, well the Conjurer Escape Ship and the Shader, I need the Nowhere, that is it, the Nowhere is obviously from Dead Orbit, I don't need No Shaders from Future Warcraft or New Monarchy, so yeah. So we're going to start with Future Warcraft and try and get the Road Unraveled Ship and whatever else we get while we're here, it's a bonus, we might get plenty of Legendary Marks so I know that, so as you can see I've got 2391 Motes, I've got 2305 Weapon Parts, I've got 3500 basically, Armor Materials, I'm not going to use my Heavy Ammo Simps, well it might as well use what I've got, 415 Heavy Ammo Packs, Special Ammo I meant to say they're not heavy and we also got Worm Spore as well, so let's go into it, I'm just going to spam this quickly, okay so we're going to go with Weapons, so I need the Ship and I didn't get the Ship but I've got a Wounded and the Cloak and Ultimore with 4 Strange Coins, so we'll look at that quickly, yep not that great, let's go back, let's go back, now I apologise how long this video may be because I've got so much to spend, but yeah, okay so let's go, you know what I do, I'll cut out all of the me spamming the buttons to make it a little bit shorter, nope didn't get there then but I've got a waiting, let's go again, I mean I thought twice about doing this but you know, oh the whale, let's have a quick look at that, nah, what else did I get, nah, nah, but yeah I did think twice about doing this but when Destiny 2 comes out I don't plan on coming back to this game, but then if I ever did, getting these materials ain't hard, it seriously isn't, I ain't having a look with the Ship though, I'm not having a look with the Ship, well that's a decent one I'll have a look after and just delete this, I've also got engrams to open as well as plenty of other things which we're just going to spam open in this video, anything perfect we'll order here, I'm probably going to waste plenty of legendary marks as well, which I ain't really fussed about to be honest, doesn't really bother me because I'm not going to need them, let's get rid of these as well while we're here, okay so let's get back into it, let's go, oh no let's sell. Let's sell what? Let's go again, let's go again!  About 900? Nope, wounded. Come on! Come on! This game just hates me. Okay, so things are full here. No, get out of here. No, get out of here too. No, get out of here, three. Okay, what we've got here? Nothing great. To be honest, I don't need ghost shells. I don't even know why I'm looking for perfect stat rolls because I just don't need them. Okay, let's go again. Should we try something else? Let's try heavies. How many heavies is it going to use for one rank up? Wow, it's going to use a lot. It's going to use a lot. Okay, so here we go. Nope! Let's go again with heavies. I'm not going to lie, my thing is actually hurting now.  Let's go. I don't even think I've got enough worms for. You know what? Forget that, we'll keep worms for. Specials, I don't think I'll have enough specials to even do a level up, but we'll go anyway. Nope! Let's go back to the heavies. Yeah, thing is definitely hurting. Thing is definitely hurting. Come on, game! I've got two whales here. What we've got?  Look at that one. Okay, so we've got a range finder. Perfect balance or outlaw. With explosive rounds or snapshots, not bad. I was only one looking at chamber, was it? Let's have another look at that. I'm looking chamber and triple tap. Oh, that's not bad. That's not bad at all. But I don't really need them. I don't really need them. I don't really need them. No, don't need you either. Let's get rid of you quickly. Let's get rid of you quickly. Gold shells.  I'm not even sure how many Legendary Mugs I've got. I'm actually... How many have I got? Only 105, so I've got plenty of... Got plenty of space to delete. Let's go with... Back with heavies, might as well waste these. Here we go. Come on. Come on, game. These ships ain't that rare. What have I got to be? I can't believe I still haven't got the full set. Okay, so I've got no more of them. Might as well just play them through these. Then I'll get nothing for that. Let's go with arm materials now. Okay, come on. Oh my...  Okay, so let's go for another arm. Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go... No, this is going to be the last one I'm doing. I'm going to go to dead orbit because I think there's more things I need at dead orbit. So it makes more sense there. No, no, let's go dead orbit. Let's go to dead orbit and see... If I can get what I need. Actually, let me just double check. I haven't got the nowhere because I think that's what I'm wearing. Let me just double check that. No, yep. So I definitely need the nowhere and I definitely need the two ships. So yes, dead orbit it is. Dead orbit, it definitely is. Okay, so I'm going to have to... ...finge allegiance with them, form allegiance with them. Let's go. All of these, all of these will be wasted until I get what I need. Nope, boots, don't need boots. You know what I'm doing? I'm picking, I'm picking the armor one because it's in the wrong spot from I'm used to the weapons in the future.  Why do you change the box around? That one, that's the one I want. And I've got a clock. I've got a clock. It's because, you know, this is because my weapons are full, which is fine. Oh, that's a nice looking one, but I don't need it. Keep you, get rid of you. Get rid of you too. What have I got here? Don't need you, goodbye. Let's go again, let's go again. I haven't got many moats left and I'm burning through them quite quick. Nope, I've got it then. Just give me a shader. Just give me a shader, I don't know where. I need it, I need it so badly, so desperately. Nope. Give me one ship, give me one of the ships. Come on, game. Come on, game. Nope. I'm burning through everything. Nope.  And I'm picking the wrong thing. I'm picking the wrong thing. Why do you change it? Why does this game just change everything around it and not use me? I've wasted about three packages there, I think. No, I'm not even getting anything here. I'm not even getting anything here. Oh, I'm burning through my moats. I'm burning through my moats. I've got a spiral. Wow, you know what? I forgot they even exist. Is that my future walk-out one? Yes, it is. I even forgot, well, that's definitely one thing I needed, so I'm locking that. That was definitely one thing I needed. I forgot you could get them out of these things, so yeah. I still though, got no moats left. It's under weapon, it's under weapon parts. I've got one of the ships. Let me get with some of these. Okay, so let's have a look at that ship. So it means I only need one more ship in this, apart from the future walk-out one. Actually, I need, you know what, I'm not sure. The Cometatus and the Road Unraveled. I think I may have on my Titan, because he's also a future walk-out. And I know if you're on your character and you're looking the vault and you've got that ship on you, you won't be able to take it out. And that's probably where I've made mistakes, where I'm thinking I haven't got them. I know what, for a fact, I haven't got the dead orbit one. So the only one now I need is the Fermi solution. And I think, and the shader, the nowhere. And I think my collection is done. And I think my collection is done. So yes, so yes, let's get rid of these. Give me that shader, the nowhere, because that's what I need. Game, please. I haven't got much materials left and you're killing me. Yes, yes, yes. I got it, I got it. I got it, I got it. Oh, it's beautiful. It's not beautiful, but it's beautiful. It is absolutely, you know what? The only thing now I need is that other ship, the Fermi solution. That's the only fine thing I need. Let me just double check my ship vault, because I did check on my Titan. And I think he may have them ships already in his inventory. And if you've got them in your inventory, it looks as though you can't pick them up. Yes, as we can see here, I've got this in my inventory and I can't pick it up. Yeah, I have. I've got the one commentators and the road and revel. They're both on my Titan. I can guarantee it.  I wasted all on the materials. If you don't call, no, no. So the only thing I need now is the Fermi solution. And I've got everything. I've got everything. Please game, please game, please game, please game. Give me that from this. Give me that from this package. We think, you know what? May as well spam them out now because I don't need them. I probably ain't going to be able to even get another package round couple. Who cares? Who cares? Who cares? I have got everything in the game. I've got everything in the game. And now I've got a postmaster full of things. Let's go and have a look. What's in my postmaster? I've also got a couple of exotic engrams on me as well. So we may as well open them up right here right now. Come on. Come on. I am so happy. I complete my collection. All the middle multi tool and a trespasser and the fourth horseman. Oh, I can buy it myself. Where's my marks on an engram? Why not? So for primary like the questing beach. You know how many times I get that flipping thing? Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Okay. So we've got plenty of things in here. Okay. So we've got a whale here with a range finder on it. Yeah. That's not because the one I've already got, but still. No perfect roles over there. No perfect role there. That's a pretty looking cape and the cloak of the believing. I believe that's the one you get an exotic version of. So yeah. Yep. Yep. Yes. Okay. So let's have a double look at what's in my inventory. Let's have a double look what's in my inventory before I skip to my Titan. Oh, look at that world's to come. Flipping now. Could arrange it. Look at the range range finder and camouflage. Not bad. Not bad now. No, I've got the full. Um, I kind of remember what the gears called you get from them packages you get for your week for having gone on me. They are in my vault. Let me just double check what they were. When he wants to load up because this game is just so slow. I hope part two ain't like this. Okay, so yeah, these right here. The treasures of ages. Now I've got full gear on my Hunter. I don't think I have on my Titan. Hence why I'm going to switch to my Titan and open up these packages. So that's what I'm going to do. And I kept you guys back in the tower in a quick second. Okay guys. So I'm on my Titan and I've grabbed them out of my vault. And as you can see my epic looking Iron Man Titan. Okay. So the only thing that actually need actually have to have in a look. I need only the helmet, I believe. So all of our thoughts on them. Oh, there they are. So we've got the, the fist of triumph there. We've got the player triumph there. And we also have the goose of triumph there. No, I don't think there is a class item if there is. I'm not sure whatever, but I don't have the helmet. So that's what we are going for. We've got 13 packages. Let me double check what the helmet looks like. Yes, I definitely do not have the helmet. So that's what we're going to go for. We've got 13 packages to do so. Let's go. Okay. So I didn't get it there. Let's go again. And I didn't get it there. Let's go again. And I didn't get it there. Come on game. Be nice to me. I didn't get it there. What? Let's go. Look, what are these things are so bad? They're so bad. Needle and thread, which I think I've had about a thousand times. Um, no, nothing there.  Seven pack. How many was this? 13 packages all together to get one thing. There we go. The helm of triumph. So I've got full, full gear on my Titan, which is absolutely badass. It's what I wanted. It's what I wanted. So I've got a full gear. How does it look? Oh, it looks so shiny. See, let's put this on it. Why not? Yeah. What about that? Now we're talking about no shader. Oh, yeah, not bad. So what I'm going to do now guys is I'm going to put these remaining packages in my vault. How many is there? Six and hopefully, hopefully we can open them up on my wall. I can do quite good. She probably ain't going to happen to be honest. Yeah. And if you can, my postmaster quickly look at your stories. What is in my postmaster? What's in my postmaster? Okay, just, just, just, just emotes. Forget that. Okay. So switch to my warlock and I'll be back in a sec. Okay, guys. So I'm on my warlock. We have these six packages and do you think I'll be able to get any armor out of them? I don't think I will, but let's go anyway. Imagine I get the full set out of six packages. That would be incredible. Okay. So I've got the gauntlets. We are off to a great start. That's not a bad start to be honest. And then I got nothing. Really? Really again? Really again? For remaining? Snowjerk, what the hell is that? Oh, no, no. Got a four head slap. I feel about, well, feel like slapping myself in the forehead to be honest. After that, last warm mind. Got two packages. Impossible now. Impossible. Impossible. Houdoum! Ah, Houdou can you? Okay. So, and we've got the chest piece. So I still need two, two pieces of armor. I want to see my postmaster. Checking for loot. Checking for a loot. What we got here. And I got the specter gloves, which is, well, you know, not needed. So I've got the chest piece and the gauntlets. So two out of six isn't bad. And I've still got this week and next week to get six packages. So hopefully I can do it. But guys, that is the end of the video. Spent all my materials wasted quite a lot of my future walkout, but I got everything I needed in the end. And to be honest, the materials I don't need anymore. I'm never going to use them again as soon as Destiny 2 hits. Well, you know, that's probably the end of Destiny 1 for me. But guys, hope you enjoyed the video. Thanks as always for stopping by and I will see you on that next one.


Let us solve another numerical. Let's see what we have got out here. Copper atoms radius 128 picometer and mass 63.55 grams per mole, so this is some information regarding copper atoms, were found to crystallize into a cubic unit cell with an edge length of 361 picometers. If copper has a density of 8.96 grams per centimeter cube, find the kind of unit cell it forms. Interesting question. We are given some information regarding copper and we need to figure out the kind of unit cell that it forms. So let's see how I try and solve this problem. Well, if I read this question carefully, I will see that it is given that copper atoms were found to crystallize into a cubic unit cell. Now, we know that unit cells can come in different shapes. They can be cubic or orthorhombic or tetragonal etc. In fact, there are seven different shapes that are possible, but it is already given in the question that the copper atoms fall into the cubic system, right? So the unit cell that it has is definitely cubic. Now when it comes to cubic unit cells, we know that they can either be simple cubic or body centered or face centered. So the whole question boils down to figuring out if this unit cell is simple cubic or BCC or is it FCC. Now how do we figure that out? Well, in this question, we are given some information regarding the density of copper, right? So maybe I can find this out from the density. So what do we mean by density? Well, density is nothing but the mass per unit volume of a substance. So for a unit cell, the density will be the weight of the unit cell by the volume of the unit cell, right? Now what do you think will be the weight of a unit cell? For example, if I take this simple cubic unit cell which has eight atoms at these corners, what do you think will be the weight of this unit cell? Well, it won't be equal to the weight of all these atoms because these atoms are not 100% inside this unit cell, but they are in fact shared between different unit cells, right? So the weight of the unit cell will only be due to the weight of the atom that is inside the unit cell. And to figure out the number of atoms that is inside, to find out the total number of atoms that effectively lie inside a unit cell, we can always use the A effective, right? For a simple cubic unit cell, A effective will be equal to 1 by 8 into 8 because atoms at the corners are only 1 eighth inside, which comes out to be equal to 1. So we can think of a simple cubic unit cell as effectively having one atom that lies 100% inside. So the weight of the unit cell will be equal to 1 into the mass of that atom, right? Similarly, A effective of a BCC unit cell is equal to 2. So we can think of this unit cell as effectively having two atoms inside it. So its weight will be equal to 2 times the mass of the atom that make up this unit cell. Similarly, for FCC, the A effective is equal to 4. So the weight of an FCC unit cell will be 4 times the mass of the atom that makes up this unit cell. So the weight of any unit cell can be written as A effective multiplied by the mass of an atom that makes up the unit cell. And if these unit cells are cubes of edge length A, then the volume of the unit cell will be equal to A cube, right? So the density of a unit cell, the density is A effective into mass of the atom by A cube. Now if we look into this question, we will see that the density of the crystal is known, right? So we know the density, the edge length is also given, so we also know the edge length and the molar mass is also given. So the mass of an atom can also be found out. So using this information, we can find out the A effective which will be equal to the density into A cube by mass of an atom. And because it's already given in the question that the unit cell is cubic, so it can only be simple cubic or BCC or FCC, so the value of A effective can only be 1, 2 or 4, right? So on solving this, if the value comes out to be equal to 1, we can say that the unit cell is simple cubic. If it comes out to be 2, we'll call it BCC and if it's 4, then it's definitely FCC. So let us see what this comes out to be. Let me put this to the side. So now if I plug in the values, the A effective will be equal to the density which is given as 8.96 grams per centimeter cube multiplied by A cube. The edge length A is 361 picometers, whole thing cube, by the mass of an atom. Well, out here the mass is given in terms of grams per mole, so 63.55 grams is not the mass of a single copper atom but is in fact the mass of one mole of atoms. Now we require the mass of only one atom. So now if the mass of one mole which is 6.022 into 10 to the power 23, if the mass of one mole is 63.55 grams, then we need the mass of one atom, so this will be 63.55 divided by 6.022 into 10 to the power 23, this many grams, right? So the mass of an atom will be 63.55 grams divided by 6.022 into 10 to the power 23. Now if you look at this, you will realize that out here the density is measured as gram per centimeter cube but the edge length is given in terms of picometers. So let me convert these picometers in terms of centimeters. So we know that one picometer is equal to 10 to the power minus of 12 meters and this can be written as 10 to the power minus of 10 into 10 to the power minus of 2 meters and 10 to the power minus of 2 meters is equal to 1 centimeter. So one picometer is equal to 10 to the power minus of 10 centimeter, right? So if I write it out here 8.96 gram per centimeter cube into 361 into 10 to the power minus of 10 centimeter whole thing cube divided by 63.55 grams divided by 6.022 into 10 to the power 23. So let me rewrite 8.96 gram per centimeter cube into 361 into 10 to the power minus of 10 whole thing cube centimeter cube divided by 63.55 grams divided by this quantity. So I can write it as multiplied by 6.022 into 10 to the power 23, right? So this will come up here. So this gram gram and centimeter cube will cancel out. So A effective is a dimensionless quantity which will be equal to 8.96 into 361 cube into 10 to the power minus 10 cube which is 10 to the power minus of 30 into 6.022 into 10 to the power 23 divided by 63.55. Let me quickly rewrite this one more time. 10 to the power minus 30 and 10 to the power 23 is 10 to the power minus 7. So if I do the calculation out here, let me bring up my calculator. 8.96 into 361 cube into 6.022 divided by 63.55. This can be written as 3.99 into 10 to the power 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. So this is 3.99 into 10 to the power 7 into 10 to the power minus 7, right? So the A effective comes out to be equal to 4. So because the A effective of an FCC unit cell is 4, so the unit cell that is formed is FCC. Thank you. . .


Hello, I'm Tom Franchers, Resident Casting Director. You have me to thank for, as you've seen on social media, some of the Doctor Who characters returning for some cameo appearances, such as... and... but you'd be surprised to know how many Doctor Who actors were considered to return, many of which were actually auditioned.  Not include every single Doctor in some description, you b- Sorry. I know it would have been amazing to see all the Doctors on screen at some point. It would have been, well, God-tier if I had to put a label on it. But, hopefully through this compilation of audition videos, you can see why we didn't use them. Measure to see you, Matt Smith, at your service, ready for this audition.  Oh, love a penguin. You know, the last time I saw a penguin was in London Zoo. Matt! We were loving the energy over here, but please stick to the script. Sorry, right, yes. I do go on a bit, don't I? You're not wrong. Oh, it reminds me of that time I was filming Victory of the Daleks. I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry. But what is this script? I would never say any of this stuff. David, you have said that about literally every line so far. Well, maybe get some writers who actually know their 10, eh? Now, I've got to go. I'm in about 50 other projects at the minute anyway. See you in the 60th! I'm so excited for this. Thank you. Thank you for this opportunity. The fans are going to go bananas. OK, everyone, that's lunch. What now? Sorry, Paul. Maybe another time, eh? Mr McCoy, could you just save the lines, please? Time for... There was this terrific day where Nick Briggs decided to take all his clothes off and run around screaming, help, I'm a darling! Oh, here's a fun spoiler for you. Can't tell anyone this. I'm going to be playing the curator next year, my own version of the curator, as well as about 50 million different versions of this. So, yeah, quite exciting, isn't it? Don't tell anyone, though. Highly classified. Colin, this has been recorded and Nick Briggs is actually heavily involved in the show.  Before we get started, tell me, did you add that cricket segment like I requested? We couldn't fit that in, I'm afraid. It's a tight space. Oh, darn. Oh, very well. As long as you removed that character that dresses like a fake me, we're all good. I quit. It's disrespectful as what it is! Mr Baker, what are you laughing at? Pim's fractals. Jack is a very funny man. And now, the moment you've all been waiting for. I said no to the 60th. I said no to Big Finish. But this, this I said yes to. So, prepare for my 16-hour mon... Who let Peter in? Call security. How does he keep getting in? I'm Jack Reigns, I'd like to audition. Get out. Okay. That's enough about me, though. How are all of you? Oh, I'm alone. I'd best let myself out then.


Hello and welcome back to the Donahue Group. We're glad you could be with us. It's a lovely hot summer day outside, kind of cool in the studio, at least for a little while. Welcome you back to our show where we talk over just events in the city, the county and the state, joining me today, Cal Potter, Tom Paneski and Ken Risto. We thought we'd talk a little bit about interesting events in the city. Excuse me. The police station continues to be with us. Someday, somewhere, there's going to be a police station, we assume. The current plan now, as I understand it, is to investigate five sites doing a public hearing. I think it's a good idea to have the public hearings, or has enough been said? What do you think? Well, I think the problem initially was that the park was taken without a lot of public support, and I think a public hearing is probably the epitome of a forum into which you plug in an idea and get the public sense. And I think it was a good idea to do it. I'm not so sure you want to do this on every decision the council has, but on this one, since we're going to eventually find finality, hopefully, out of this process in the near future, it's probably a good step to take. Yeah, I think so. Everybody involved. And from reading a couple of the articles, it looked like they were waiting to see if Sheridan was viable and then when it became viable, it went with Sheridan without doing any public kind of participation. We're at this now a little late, but it really helps. We don't believe in representative government anymore. I mean, everybody's going to have to have their crack at this, and so we're going to have hearings, and we're going to have people's inputs. I mean, that's just the sign of the times the culture we live in right now. I see where Tom Beard is going to have listening sessions about what he should do for the city budget, and I'm sure when we get through this budget prioritization process that Mayor Perez has been talking about, we're going to have meeting upon meeting. I know we can't make a decision to the Schmoyer County School District without 25 committee meetings, so why should city government be any different? Now, I'm sensing just a tiny hint of cynicism here, and my goodness gracious. Now, representative democracy, yes, but if there's a sense that the electorate has that it can't be heard, they're called elections, and they happen pretty frequently in Wisconsin. But probably not frequently enough, and I think on major issues, there's certainly nothing wrong with some public input, particularly if the folks have a sense that they're not being listened to. I think there's a spillover from the national scene as well. I think the numbers on the national scene are kind of interesting because George Bush won more handily than some people thought, but you look at his popularity, really, and the popularity of Congress. I mean, it's terrible. And I think some of it is that people are just simple saying the Shival case and revisiting the war issue and the expenditure they're on in light of health care needs and other things, educational expenses and things that other people are grappling with on a local level. People are very disenchanted with their representative government on the national level, and I think that cynicism then just trickles down to the state and local. Whether it's justifiable in all cases, there's a cynicism out there that the numbers on the national level indicate. It's very deep. I have a little different take. The reason, you know, the Bush administration, the Congress are willing to take on issues, and there's going to be multi-opinions on how one should proceed, and some issues get advanced one direction, one way, and people get upset with that. They think that's not the way we should be doing things, and so when you take on issues, you're going to offend people, and then it's going to be exploited. Well, let's get back just to the hearing business. My view is simply that people, I think, it takes a little bit even different than that, is I don't think people feel that Washington, for whatever reasons, are very, very responsive, and I don't think people feel that their voice matters much in Wisconsin, probably not even much in Madison much anymore, and so people, I think, want to have some control over their lives, some sense that their opinions matter, some sense that I can have some input into something, and at the end of the day, my view mattered in local government, whether it be the Shabuigan area school district, or their local school district, or their local city government is a place where people still can see one another, go eyeball to eyeball and talk, and I think there's a lot of appeal to that. And couldn't you also argue that that's at least one level of government where how much money you have doesn't really make much difference in terms of how you get heard. National parties aren't pouring tons of money into aldermanic races or mayoral races or whatever, and so people actually, I think, feel like, at least I can go to whatever public hearing, or even call my alderman, but go to a public hearing and I can at least be heard, and I think there's a cynicism about even going to Madison, you get a sense that there are public hearings and lots and lots of people come to testify, but the die has been cast, minds have already been made up, and that there really is no way to have any reasonable input, and in terms of election as a referendum, again, if the money is driving it and you don't have enough money to get rid of incumbents and we know that it's very difficult to oust an incumbent, I don't think elections are necessarily the referendum on our officials that you would hope they'd be. Clinton was brilliant at end-running Congress. I mean, he went right to the people, you know, these town hall meetings and so forth, and it worked well for him. People in town should avoid it when they were discussing the Walmart issue. Those concerned citizens were there, and the town's board listened, and they chose another course of action, and they still got elected, but the people got their input in, and they had an opportunity to express what they really thought. It's really kind of interesting what kinds of issues people get engaged in. The Walmart issue obviously is directly going to impact people's lives in lots of different ways, so you've got a lot of people showing up. I think the district had, the Shabuigan area school district had two, maybe three hearings on its budget, and I think maybe three people showed up, and in difference, or whether they're so happy we're running the budget the way we are is hard to say, but I know that we had conversations earlier a couple years ago about the standards which students were supposed to be proficient in here at the local level, and we had hearings, and I think five or six people showed up. So it's interesting to see that sometimes you have these hearings, you want all this input, and nobody comes, and then sometimes you think you've made a decision, which is pretty wise, based on the best facts. It's when you don't have the hearing, you effectively cut out anybody who wishes to speak, but when you provide it, if they choose not to come, they can't complain. Well, and Wolbatide, the political leader who misjudges the interest that the public is going to have on a particular issue, some budget hearings are mandated, county budget hearings, you know, you need to have X number of hearings and X number of places so the public is allowed to come and voice its opinion. I don't think the school district is required to, but by history it does and so forth. So those are kind of routine sorts of things and not hot button issues for people, but then you get other issues where you think, well, this will just, I mean, who cares that Sheridan Park, I mean, we're saving the taxpayers' money according to the people who voted for it. We don't need to get any input on that. And so if you misjudge those things, at least at the local level, I think that's where the election is, the place where the people can actually vote, you know, what their thoughts are. All that said and done, it'll be so interesting from my perspective to see where that police station ends up. It sounds like it's still going to be 23. But another interesting wrinkle. But you never know what happens at a public input. Right, and there's a referendum out there. Now, this is about the most quiet referendum. I saw it like in the third column of the newspaper article. There's a small group of people who have started a referendum petition about the question of the cost of the police station on the ballot. Do we want to spend $17 million on a police station? And my understanding is the debt limit will be structured so that the city will not exceed its imposed 3% debt limit, although it's, you know, bumped right up to the top there. But... I don't know how many signatures they got at this point, and it's supposed to be in what, by August 1st or something? If they don't have it by August 1, then it won't happen. Right, but I mean, that's awfully quiet. I mean, the various petitions that have been circulating around have been much noisier, but this one was pretty quiet. So it'll be interesting to see what if anything happens. Who's spearheading that? I don't know. Because I know. I wasn't aware of it. You got that police thing? Tom is our keeper of newspaper articles. He's an educator, so he highlights it yellow. I think it might be some of the Sheridan Park people. There was a gentleman that was listed on that little article on the police department. But I don't know what I did with it. But so it'll be interesting to see, because as much as we talk about the police station and where it's going to be located, then we're dealing with the reality of, I mean, now the cost is $17 million from $10 to $12 to $17 million. So it's expensive. And how much will that mean for the taxpayers and so forth? We haven't kind of crossed that next step. So it'll be interesting to see how that goes. What's going to happen if there's not a police liaison officer in the schools? Western Civilizational End, as we know it. That's a strong Robbie's statement. Are you going to arrange for your own protection? No. I've never felt unsafe over at South High School. That being said, we live in an age where you never know what's going to happen. Is it great? I should probably say when we talk about the district, I should do a disclaimer right away, is that this is my view and not the district's position. That's almost always the case. So I'm not speaking for the district. I'm sure I'll get a telephone call from somebody from the district saying, what are you doing? Expanding on these things. It's a good program. I think there's a certain amount of, people feel a certain amount of comfort level with an officer in the building if you have an officer there full time. But you're looking at budget prioritization processes and you're looking at having to make some tough decisions on the city budget. And so I'm not surprised that it's on the radar for possible cuts or elimination. An issue comes up as half funded by the city, half funded by the school system. You could argue, you could make a question, should it be totally funded by the school system? And they contract with the, I mean it's the same tax dollars, but should you keep the lines of demarcation clear that this is a school funded kind of activity? I still think it'll still be 50-50. But maybe the school system could raise some money through naming rights to help fund this. Because it does say some of the money that if they raise, they could use them funding some programs that might be earmarked for ending. Isn't that a sign of the times though when we start with naming stadiums, now we're going to translate into naming government programs after sponsors, government facilities. Well it could be an endowed chair, it would be an endowed police vest or a bulletproof vest or whatever. But I think it's been a pretty good program for the school district, but again it's costly. The paper said the cost is $375,000 a year and for protection, that is a concern. As a former school board member I can say that I remember hearing people talk about not necessarily so much the question of danger in the school as the officers being a good developing rapport with students and so forth. And typically at least as far as I can remember the officers do seem to do a good job of being your friendly police officer as opposed to the police officer that is not so friendly. So it'll be interesting to see how that turns out and what the district is going to do and will we in fact just call police into the school districts when we need a specific police function. Somebody is disorderly or there's a weapon or something like that. And so it'll be interesting to see how that's taken care of. Speaking of the police, I'm interested in your reaction to the press conference held by the district attorney and Chief Kirk of the Sheboygan Police Department regarding the Isaac Thomas complaint. It is my understanding that the... I'm not sure if it was the police and fire commission or just the police department which did its own internal investigation determined that there was no misconduct on the part of police officers regarding the incident where Mr. Thomas was pulled over. Now he's being charged, Isaac Thomas, with filing a false police report. Not a criminal charge but a class A misdemeanor which as I understand it is the... not misdemeanor, class A forfeiture which is the most serious forfeiture fine up to $10,000. What do you think? Chilling effect on people complaining against the police? Resolution of a difficult issue? What do you think? Well, when you have such a high profile case and you do find out somebody did indeed lie, I don't see how authorities can overlook that. I think it remains to be seen what the case evolves into and what all the details are but if somebody did indeed falsify a report I think people like the district attorney feel that they need to respond in some way. It's a negotiation tool. It's a negotiation tool. What's going to happen is probably... both sides will probably step away from the thing and walk away. A civil suit that'll be... I mean, when you start weighing a civil suit against the city on the part of the plaintiff and now the plaintiff is facing off this type of legal action, I imagine what's going to happen is both sides will probably decide not to roll the dice. I think that'll be my prediction here today. I'll only make one prediction today besides the end of Western civilization and that'll be that both sides will probably recognize that it's going to be a long, arduous process for both parties to try to figure out what actually happened out there in the street and ultimately, unless somebody comes forward with more information or witnesses to tilt the evidence one way or the other, I'm not quite sure how it's going to be. It's going to be he said, he said. He says when citizens interact with the police. One can understand that in its own internal investigation, which I think was quite thorough on the part of the police department, they determined from the police department's perspective that nothing improper happened. And yet, as those of us who spend too much time in the courtroom, there are always two sides to the story and it's always been my experience as a lawyer that except in the most cynical or unpleasant of situations, the both sides really think they're telling the truth. If I have a client who says, how can he lie when he says such a thing? When people get into those circumstances, they really do believe they're telling the truth. So the officer feels he's telling the truth. Mr. Thomas feels he's telling the truth. The concern is the next step, which is not only does the police report vindicate the police department, which I don't have a problem with, but then the next step is taken, which is this gentleman, when you've weighed the evidence and you've decided, no, there's no basis, but now we're going to go ahead and actually charge him. True, not with a crime, but with a fairly significant forfeiture action. It just was interesting to me that it was that next step that was taken. And I don't know what bargaining there's going to be. I don't know what this guy, Mr. Thomas, is going to do. Is he going to get a lawyer? Is he going to sue the city? You know, who knows? And it is one of those difficult, tricky situations from what I can just, as an outsider looking in, nobody will ever know what happened, except the people who are there, and they have two distinctly different versions of the story. So it's an interesting time for Sheboygan. I mean, this kind of actual complaint and investigation process, I think doesn't happen very much. And as compared to Milwaukee, the law enforcement agency has had its share in Madison. Frequently have there been complaints against the police department for abuse. I'm not in Sheboygan in particular. Well, it's interesting because the Sheboygan press has made that open records request of all the law enforcement agencies in the county asking for copies of all citizens' complaints against officers for the last five years. That's a huge task, as I understand it, because speaking now, most of the smaller law enforcement agencies have presented that material to the press, but the city has not, and I don't believe the sheriff's department has. I mean, it's a big job. Going back five years is, it takes a lot of time and effort. So probably the press is entitled to that information under the open records law of the state, but still, it's quite a task. At some point, if the press does push it, we'll find out how many complaints have been filed and what kind and what the disposition has been, and so that'll be interesting. But from my perspective, the press, there was some difficulty with the conclusions that they jumped to in that particular article for which they've now apologized a couple different times, but it's tricky stuff. And changing communities and neighborhoods, I think we have to learn how to deal with each other in a slightly different way than we used to. And we have to, I think, be more multidisciplinary too when the press got into the article on differential arrest rates for different minority groups. What you need to start bringing in is the whole issue of what groups are in poverty and what groups have higher crime rate because they're living in conditions that are not ideal. And those are type of things that have to be dragged in that oftentimes reporters just don't do that. And I think the press has, in fact, apologized pretty much for having made some straight-line conclusions for data that really is all over the place and is hard to determine. Well, let's just move on a little bit to naming rights. There's an editorial in the Sheboygan Press and selling the naming rights to public buildings is okay. University of Wisconsin Sheboygan has got several named... We could use some, we got, well... Named buildings, like in college. It's a final tradition, isn't it? Well, the University of Wisconsin Sheboygan, it was the first because we had a private donor donate money for the building of the science building, Bratz Building, Bratz Foundation. And we now have acuity as also... So after one, then comes another, and they're not just getting naming rights to the building. They're providing big chunks of money to the building of the building. And the state then provides the money for putting all the equipment into the building. So I don't have it, you know, I'm pleased that that's going on. I guess an article came up about the naming rights of when they were redoing Lambeau Field. They were, some people really objected to selling Curling Lambeau's name. You know, it should stay Lambeau Field. That's like changing the American flag sign. I mean, I... Sorry, things will not tamper with you. Some things you don't tamper with. So yeah, maybe that's the point. Some things you just can't tamper with. Others, there's no big issue. As long as there are private donors who support education or private donors who support certain things and they wish to make a contribution, I think it's a positive. Yeah, I guess I can't see... When we're in an atmosphere where support for public education, government support for public education is there's certainly no great leaps forward as far as that goes. It's looking for private support for this kind of thing. I don't know, to me it makes sense and I think it reflects the people who are important in the community. I mean, look at Lakeland College. I think every building is named for someone and certainly in the university tradition. That's a private school, versus a public school. Yeah, but I mean, University of Wisconsin-Madison, every building is named after, not every building, but many buildings are named after private donors. I happen to sit on the board of the Sheboygan Public Education Foundation just to make that disclosure but I can't get fired from that, I don't think. Nor can I. It's an enthusiastic group of community volunteers who have an entrepreneurial edge and so I think from my perspective, boy, the more the merrier as far as that goes. I don't see any really significant down side. I think there has to be some ground rules. I think it kind of all began with certain beverage companies putting up scoreboards and whether they then get an exclusive contract for the district when they sell beverages, soft drink beverages at their events, whether there can be then any competition. I think those are type of ethical questions that need to be spelled out because we appreciate gifts and community participation, but government's not in the business of granting monopolies. Exactly. And you had earlier on, I don't think these enterprises have been found to be that much successful. They were offering to put in closed circuit televisions throughout the schools and return for which the students would have to watch a syndicated television program. Of course there was going to be all sorts of commercials being thrown but I think that's distinctly different than a naming right to a building. One of my first decisions on the school board back in 1996 was whatever software company was going to give a gift to the district of a scoreboard in exchange for exclusive vending contract rights and this is not a gift. We need to figure out if this is a good deal for the district and I think our school district has been pretty good about making sure that those kinds of things are evaluated and... As that goes forward, I saw that the Sheboygan Public Education Foundation was going to be involved in making decisions. How have they got to a point where they might decide how they're going to do it? I mean would you like a private industry like McDonald's or Wendy's wanting their name on a building or something? How are you going to make a decision on what names to allow I think part of it is there aren't necessarily groups that are jumping out to spend millions of dollars on buildings so that there's some hustle involved. Some selling, some pitching of the project to various industries. It's my understanding however that the school district and specifically the school board will retain and rightfully so will retain final decision making authority about whether they're going to allow that to happen. If the education foundation finds a terrific donor for two million dollars but the school district and specifically the board is not in favor of it they'll have the final say which is I mean absolutely I think that's how it has to be. Briefly before we're wrapping up we're in the schools reading scores are up for third graders still below the state average. This is kind of near and dear to my heart we do very well we never talk about when we're looking at Sheboygan scores how many of our children don't speak English and so they are and they're folded into this I think the school district is doing a great job I mean we look and say we're three or four points below the state average but when 33% is it now of your children our minority children many of whom do speak English but many of whom do not I think we're doing pretty good. And then the increase not only is the influx of ELL and other English language learners and those things but also as we talked about a couple of episodes back a couple months ago the larger number of students who come from what the state labels economically disadvantaged families has been really kind of the hidden secret that nobody much talks about we've been focusing on race but that's part of it progress is being made and when you get to about one or two percent by the way this isn't fine tuning one or two percent of on a test like this is within the margin of error so you're pretty close to the state average and the good news is that the schools that have those types of families that struggle Sheridan long fellow Washington they're the ones that are making reasonably good progress it's the schools that have traditionally not had those types of populations now they're there and now teachers have to adjust and change practices that's that's the next challenge I think the district's going to face.


Well, Sears gets his first Major League win and on Sunday, both Nestor Cortez and Bruce Zimmerman will try to get their first wins of the season. Both pitched well in their openers. Zimmerman four shutout innings against Milwaukee and for Nestor four in a third shutout innings with five strikeouts. And 72 pitches against Toronto Jack, so what do you kind of expect tomorrow? I expect more consistency from Cortez. He went out there against that Blue Jays lineup and he did what he always does. He's got the fastball, he's got the cutter, he throws from different arm angles and he attacks. The best thing that a pitcher can do for a manager or a pitching coach is be consistent and this is how consistent Cortez has been. And his last 15 starts, he has allowed two earned runs or fewer in 12 of those starts. The guy just goes out there and doesn't look like he should be someone who is overpowering but he gets feeble swings. Batters cannot figure him out. One thing I think Cortez will have to contend with Bob. I'm giving a little peek ahead to tomorrow. I say Rizzo gets a day off tomorrow. The Yankees are facing a lefty through the first nine games. He has started every game. I think Boone is going to play DJ LeMahieu at first. How about maybe he DH's and Gallo doesn't play? Throwing it out there. I'll bet you a dollar.
