In this video, we're going to talk about how we can solve a system with three equations and three unknowns using the elimination method. We've learned previously how we can eliminate a 2 by 2 system, and the process is basically the same thing. We have to decide on a variable we want to eliminate, and I'm going to eliminate the first variable x. Now, to do that, you have to pick some pairs, right? So we combine two equations together. So take the first and second equation, for example. We have to adjust the coefficients so that x cancels out, and I'll do that by times the first equation by negative 2. That would look like negative 2x plus 4y plus 2z. You'll notice that my z's are actually crossed so that they don't look identical to my 2. Sorry about my pimmonship there. And then you get negative 2 times 8, which is a negative 16. Then the second equation, we don't have to adjust it at all.  And we're going to add these together. So because of our choice of coefficients, the 2x's are going to cancel out.  So if we combine together the first and second equations, we can get that by, so we adjust it, we adjust the first equation, combine those together, right? So what we're going to do next is we have to then find a second equation, a second pair of equations, I should say, so that we can eliminate x again. So what if we eliminate x by taking the first equation and the third equation together? And what we're going to do is we're going to adjust things by times the first equation by negative 4. This is going to give us negative 4x plus 8y plus 4z, and then negative 4 times 8 is going to be negative 32 right here. Now we're going to just take the third equation as it was, 4x minus 5y plus 5z is equal to 53, and we want to add these together. Because of the adjustments of the coefficients, the x's are going to cancel out yet again. We're going to get an 8y minus a 5y, which is a 3y. We're going to get a 4z plus a 5z, which is a 9z, and then 53 take away 32 as gives us a 21. And so by eliminating x, you have to do two different pairs of equations. We did the first and the second, we did the first and the third. You can also do the second and the third if you want to, but we only need two pairs to make this work. And so when we put these equations together now, we have a new system of equations that only involves y and z. So we get y plus 3z is equal to 7, and we're going to get 3y plus 9z is equal to 21. And so then what we're going to do is in order to solve this system, it's a 2 by 2 system, we would solve it by any method we feel comfortable with. We could continue to eliminate this system right here. You know, we could eliminate y, we could eliminate z, whatever we want. We could solve it by substitution. We could switch it up and switch to substitution. It doesn't matter. I'm just going to stick with elimination in this one. Let's try to eliminate the y-coordinate. I can accomplish that by timesing the first equation by negative 3. And so what I need to consider here, what I need to consider here is you're going to get negative 3y minus 9z is equal to negative 21. That's just the second equation just times by negative 1. And so when we add this together, you see that everything's going to cancel out. You're going to end up with 0 over 0. This is the dependent case. We're going to have infinitely many solutions, and we should write the solution in general form. So now that we've done this, we need to go back and actually solve for the dependent variables, right? So we're going to treat z here as our free variable. Moving into the other side of the equation, we see that y is equal to 7 minus 3z. So like we talked about before, our variable z here is a free variable. We can choose z to be whatever we want, and that will be a solution to this system of equations. Now, y, on the other hand, is going to be a dependent variable. It will depend on our choice of z. So for example, if we choose z to be 0, then y has to be 7. If we choose z to be 1, then y has to be 4. There's that dependence relationship that's going to be between them. Well, what about the variable x? Can we back up here, right? If we have to sort of make a dependence relationship going on there as well, pick one of the equations you want, you know, maybe like the first one, right? So we get x is equal to 2y plus z plus 8. Now, z is a free variable. It can be whatever it wants to be, right? It's like queen whatever here from the Lego movie part 2. She can be whatever she wants to be, z plus 8. And then y, y is a dependent variable. It depends on our choice of z. And like we saw before, y, remember, is just 7 minus 3z. So we can combine these terms together and get x equals 14 minus 6z plus z plus 8. And so combining like terms here, we're going to get 8 and 14, which is a 22. Negative 6z plus z is a negative 5z. And so we see that x is likewise going to be a dependent variable. It depends on the choice of z. And so when we record this all together, our general solution is going to look something like the following. The solution to the system of equations looks like, well, x is going to be 22 minus 5z, y is going to be 7 minus 3z, and then z is whatever she wants to be there. And so this would give us the general solution to the system of linear equations, which we found using the elimination method, which could be adapted for a 3 by 3 system, a 4 by 4, or however many variables you want.


Hi everyone. Thank you for coming by. My name is Tony and I'm here to talk about non-photorealistic rendering. And for me, for being more specific on how to avoid 3D filling on your NPR animations or animated NPR projects. Because when you're working on a still frame everything's fine, right? Because you can paint textures, you can fake some light reflections or even use grease pencil to paint some specific color details or line work. But then when your camera starts to move a lot of 3D alarms shut out and the trick is revealed, right? It's a 3D model, it's made in 3D and this kind of canny valley starts to happen where it's like, yeah, looks to be but no, right? And I want to share my finding techniques but most of all this kind of mindset that I've been building up that helps me to answer a recurring question why that almost all the time hits me when I'm working on an NPR project which is why my NPR animation doesn't look 2D enough. But first of all let's clarify one thing with another question. Does an NPR animation have to look 2D? And by that I mean cheating the audience eyes, making them mask themselves like it's 2D, it's 3D. And the answer is no, it's not strictly necessary. Because NPR it's about stylizing the final result of a 3D project, getting away from PBR results and also making some kind of point in terms of look and artistic intention. But the illusion of 2D it's not something that has to be there because there are plenty of projects around there that actually feel 3D. I mean it doesn't matter at all because they look awesome anyway you like. So yeah, the next question should be do I want my NPR animation to look 2D? And yeah I think it's kind of obvious question but I think it's important to think about this before moving forward because if from now on if you want to fake 2D you have a new job which is replicate 2D limitations and avoid 3D perfection. I like to call this job the 3D killer. And you will ask okay Tony, but where all this motivation of faking 2D or killing 3D comes from? Well I guess because I am a 3D generalist where I start my my professional career as an illustrator and yeah to the illustrator and to the animator and yeah one day I could for no mind draw and love you. This is all your fault. Told me this amazing software called Blender and yeah we start making video games together and this is how I get myself into the this insane 3D journey and yeah some years later I finally joined Pepe School Land which is Daniel Martínez Lara animation school to become a 3D animator but then the same year E.B. was released and everything changed for me because I would like to shade and light in my 3D scenes but with this new toy that lets me see my notes in actual real time that just boost my shading experience so much that much that even star Daniel starts scolding me because I was spending too much time shading and lighting my animation exercise instead of animating them. He was like Mr. you're here to learn about 3D animation but I was like sorry this is too cool I can look at this rim light like and yeah but that's not all because then I found NPR non-photo realistic rendering and my mind just blew up because I could get this previous intention of getting this kind of 2D animation result back in the days I love it especially when it looks when it looks 2D and yeah in my mind the message was clear I want I want to do this so yeah back to the to the previous question do I want my NPR animation to look 2D and for me the answer is yes thank you so let's go straight to the point as I said before fake in 2D it's about avoiding perfection and reproducing 2D limitations and solving them in a creative way as 2D does. Let's think it in the other direction the opposite direction why my 2D animation doesn't look 3D enough could be a lot of reasons but I think that mainly it's because two of them it's technical limitations and because sometimes it's very difficult to get 3D results with 2D animation and yeah also artistic choices because maybe in terms of style you don't want to get that approach to 3D results right and that's fine so yeah but let's talk about technical limitations this could be might be kind of subjective but if I try to think about the finest 2D animation what I get in result in return is this kind of 3D organic feeling of reality right and this huge amount of control on volumes and shape perfect perspective it's a hard work for 2D animators right while for 3D animators we also we almost have it for free because 3D it's perfect and precise by default yeah for example camera orientation for me this is the highest 3D flag to avoid because in 3D it's always you only have to grab your camera object put a couple of keyframes that you got it right but the 2D animator has a lot of struggle it requires precise drawing skills that yeah when something happens about camera rotation it's the first alarm that shut out and it doesn't look to be at all so but sometimes you don't have a choice you want to make a camera rotation so let's see how to with this mindset how to avoid the 3D feeling right I have this camera animation around my Suzanne I have this cool pencil shader that I've been working on let's put it together to see what happened and yeah a lot of 3D alarms shut out right like obviously this camera it's animated on once so let's make this spider rest thing making the animation of choose and see what happened yeah it's kind of good but I've been looking for something more obvious let's try the animation on force yeah kind of more cranky more obvious right but look we can see that in the shading there are some kind of lines the stick and floating on camera space obviously I'm working on camera coordinates for these lines to get a floating result but yeah if this is a drawing this can be very difficult to put all these lines and every keyframe on the same place so let's just add some variation on these lines on every keyframe as it everything has been redrawn every and every keyframe right and yeah it's much closer right but also this is a new drawing on every keyframe let's talk about this concept that I don't put the same the lines on the same place I have some sloppy hand and yeah put it the lines make some some kind of variation and put it on together on the on the shader with all these lines variation and yeah it's kind of another layer of or irregularity on top of everything which is a it's a plus but yeah let's see also this outline thickness it's always the same on every keyframe that means that I match the same pressure with my pencil on every keyframe this had had to be something difficult right so yeah let's also have some more variation every keyframe and yeah it starts giving a much closer to the vibes right and yeah let's also have some loose strokes around the object to make some sketchy thing and yeah this is far away from our first proposal right of making a cool shader and put the animation on choose no there's a lot of more concepts in the in between that give it give us a closer approach on to the animation but all these things about adding imperfections it's not something new on on 3d workflows right because on photorealism we have to add imperfections to to to have some more livable results right like adding some vebbles on our meshes and breaking these perfect 90 degrees corners or also using roughness and normal maps and that's because again 3d it's perfect and precise by default and this won't be different for NPR we also need those imperfections so yeah that's the interesting here is that 2d tries to solve these 3d challenges in a creative way and that's what you need to replicate because you know it's it's not something that 2d reach in an easy way so you have to think what's difficult for a 2d animator and not use 3d solutions to solve your problems you need to find this creative way to to solve the specific situation that you're working on as a 2d animator and the first place I would I should try to avoid this camera rotation thing and trying to make some parallax thing or even faking focal length animation camera too but yeah I like to think about this concept that a 2d animator it's modeling texturing shading rigging and yeah also animating and on the same time so when you're working on a personal NPR animated project this puts you in the same kind of same place like a 2d animator but what happens when you're trying to make a whole production when you try to involve different kind of artists in order to make a whole production with this style and right now I'm working on a personal project that would like to to bring it you as a finished project but you know personal projects what a hell sometimes and yeah in this project I'm trying to find this pipeline and reach all these 3d aspect that you have to take in count in order to avoid the the 3d feeling and the most important is what involved in what kind of aspect involves in every department in on this on this production but yeah again it's a it's a working progress project but I will try to to to highlight some some kind of aspect that I found and hopefully the next year I come back and make a extended version maybe in the classroom and let's see more specific specific progress but yeah let's see on this chapter for example for style purposes sometimes doesn't have mouth at all and and sometimes he does a big mouth too so for that making this in 3d because of topology and UV maps limitations it's a difficult thing to do so what I tried I decided to do it's model three kind of heads and using geometry notes I I switch from one to another this which is driving by a bone about the head and yeah also because the animation it's not interpolated I can make the switch and nobody knows this right it's just a pop-up effect kind of thing also if it's it's a bone I can store it like a NASA Liberty so I can switch from a head to another you know more easy way for rigging purposes this rig is made by Nacho Maure for rig purposes we chose an option that is very simple and not quite difficult and technical aspects and who lets us deform the the character and the way that we want and yeah for example for animation again don't move your camera as I said set a viewport with camera arbitration what we do is the camera movements are quite of reframing practical reframing stuff than more than camera movements and then all these camera shakes and movements are made in post-processing like liar and thing as to the does because today hasn't had this ability of moving your camera and redrawing all this perspective again so yeah animated on a flat and static camera and then you have can start making some parallax or or this kind of effects and yeah also with with shading I choose color flat it's not playing at all I choose let's see if it works no no yeah I choose some pencil and color flat choices because I think it's kind of the minimal expression of to the animation and yeah also using this normally going back this is not the correct it's late yeah it's the solid view we have a render pass with a flat color then above everything I put the line as it was a plastic sheet of to the animation and also as I choose color flat I can also add some more details and correcting shadow problems with with to the it's not a very high level to the animation is just fixing fixing some shapes and even giving more variation on top of this right also line work sometimes doesn't work fine so yeah it's kind of fixing things in in a in a forward vision you know if you can to to go in backwards you you start struggling in technical things my my choice was to being able to make some hand drawn or handmade corrections above everything and latest because using to the it's it has no sense trying to make an NPR result without drawing anything right at the same time and on photorealism we are using photographs for for making textures or made paintings right so why don't you would draw and use to the to fade to the right so yes at this point some someone already asked why don't you draw it in the first place and yeah I think is for me this as this question is like asking someone that made photorealism why don't you make a picture in the first place right and yeah but I think as 3d has proved across the years its versatility it's a powerful ally on your productions and yeah it's also a personal choice I decide to get into this NPR madness world and yeah with 3d you have the power to extend your your productions and I'm also better 3d artist than 2d artist so this is my personal choice so yeah this kind of it I don't know if I rushed too much but yeah I hope you'll find some something useful in my presentation and maybe the next time that you buy this super ultimate NPR super shader on some gum page and you put it in your scene press play and nothing works maybe you have some guidelines to define why my NPR animation doesn't look to the enough so


Hey y'all, how are y'all doing? We're back for another chit chat video.  Damn, it's lucky. Give me, come on over here with an attitude. Oh y'all, hold on. I had a bagel, I was craving bagels in my vlog. I sit up here and had it left over one. I can't do it, y'all. I don't eat, first of all, that's the first time I had a bagel in a long time and cream cheese, I normally don't do all that. So, girl, let's just get right into this and talk about your digestive issues. So, y'all know how we do this. I talk about what's going on in my personal life. I talk about when I'm watching on YouTube and what I'm watching on TV. So, all right, you guys, what we're gonna be doing is, this was cute, but I told y'all this lasted, honestly, excuse me, it still lasted, this is three days after this.  But now, you know what I'm gonna do? No, I'm not gonna do it again. So, what we're gonna do is retwist my hair. I ended that quick, didn't I?   Now, this stuff, I think she sent this to me. Did she send this to me? No, she sent me something else that was big and it was, it's like $30. I love this product though, I absolutely like Crya Botanicals. I love this product, I love it, love it, love it. So, we're gonna be setting my hair in twist, girl. I got a bunch of bobby pins in here. I wasn't aware of. My hair is, a mess, mess, mess. Let's go ahead, let me go get my phone mirror. Okay, ooh, y'all. Y'all can see that my hair is actually a dark brown. You see that? You see that color? You see it? Y'all have to clean off this mirror. All right, so yeah, I know I like a deep part. Look at that, deep part. Okay, let me take off this watch. I got this cute new Apple Band and I always get my Apple Band from, actually I got this one through Amazon. Isn't that cute? That's cute, y'all see my nails? I got some new spring nails on and those you don't know, I primarily wear press on nails but what I do is I like to, I keep the extra nails when I put my nails on and then I mix them. I mix them. I got some compliments on the nails I was wearing before and they were some that I created myself, a really cute blue set. So, y'all, let's just section off this wig. Section this wig off. Girl, I have a lot of hair. Man, it's all messed up. I had to tell your brother long, he needs to leave me alone. Y'all, y'all, I'm just gonna say this, I'm gonna say this. Yo, yo, my husband loves him, some Vivian. He loves him, so I don't know how to say it what about me and Crass. Pb, y'all up on me. All up on me. All up on me. Like I gotta make sure the birth control is on like every, cause I can't be 50 with a newborn or I'll be like 45 with a toddler. Nah, so, uh-uh, I'm not told him just now. I said, I need for you not to mess with me for a while. Like, give me two days. Like, I know there's a little team like give me two days, leave me alone. Like, I'm glad, I'm glad he about that. He about to get a job, y'all, I'm couple more days, like. But girl, yeah. All right, y'all, personally, like besides your brother-in-law, always messing with me. Everything's going well. We're settling in here in Dallas.  And I just, you know, we've been busy in doing stuff and our priorities have been to make sure they were settling in, locate our adopters, start our appointments with our adopters and yeah. And so that was the priority, of course, with JB School and all that. If you watched my blog, you know that JB has been diagnosed with ADHD, formerly diagnosed. I'm not just saying, oh, I think my child has attention on issues. We went through the process when he was in public school and then we went to a pediatrician who really has to do it. And so it's a process, you know. And with JB, his attention issues come up mostly in school. And so I've been working with him and talking to his teacher and there are certain things that I do as a parent just to make sure that he stays on track with even everyday things at home. And so yeah, there were just some things that my husband and I were concerned about with JB, just, you know, with the attention and there are a couple of things that he's not staying on track. JB is still not eating any meat, which with him, it's a texture thing. He still rarely eats new food, y'all. All that food I be cooking, he refuses to eat. I know every, all of my friends who have older kids, they're like, you're gonna be eating.  Okay, all right. So anyway, y'all, enough of that. Everything else is going good, going well. So this is what I'm doing with this hair, y'all. I need to do them a little bit bigger. This is too small. So I'm gonna be doing the twist just a little bit bigger. So, girl, let's just get right into what I'm watching on YouTube. Not really watching a lot of YouTubers, you guys. I normally don't. I'm just being honest. I use YouTube for information. So like, if there's something that I want to watch or if there's a scene from a movie that I want to rewatch, if there's something I want to learn, which is by the way, those of you who don't know, YouTube is one of the top sources for learning information or learning something. Just to let y'all know. Anyway, so, we're gonna talk about this first. I tried to see. I did not watch the Oscars last night. I didn't even know what's going on, y'all. But of course, I found out while I was still up about the altercation with Will Smith going up on the stage and hitting Chris Rock. Like, y'all, I seriously got secondhand embarrassment. Watching that. At first, I thought it was, you know, like a lot of people, I didn't know if it was real. I'm like, this can't be real. And then when he was basically, when I saw people's faces in the audience, especially Lupita that was behind him, who looked absolutely beautiful. When I saw their reaction in the audience, I'm like, oh my God, that this is real. This isn't fake. Chow, look, this is all I have to say about this. First of all, it was inappropriate for Chris to make that comment. Like, Will was laughing at him and then something changed. And there were some people, I saw some comments where people were saying that he didn't like Jada's reaction. I understand that he also made a joke about them in 2016. Again, I think that they were both wrong. Is this a not?  Y'all see that? You, yeah, I probably don't see it. That's a not. I need to be careful. It was just, it's again, secondhand embarrassment. I think that Will Smith, we all know some, we don't know what's going on in their marriage. But clearly, in my opinion, they have a toxic marriage, Will and Jada. I think that, you know, we had Jada's how much he had an entanglement with August, which was or is her son's friend. And then you had Will Smith come up just a few months ago saying there's been no infidelity in the marriage. Like, what are you talking about? So either there's been no infidelity or you guys haven't opened their marriage or an agreement to where you know what's going on. So to you, it's not cheating because you are aware of it. Will is struggling with some things on different levels. That just escalated things for him. That was it for him. So that was displaced anger. So now, what is the theme that we're talking about now? Even me. We're not talking about, I don't even know what he wanted the Oscar for. The only thing we're gonna be hearing about for the next two or three days instead of acknowledging that he won an Oscar for the first time, mind you. Now we're talking about him going upstairs, going up on stage. So another thing that I saw on YouTube because I wanted to look it up, Senator Cory Booker hyping up Judge Brown, who is currently being nominated for Supreme Court. And you guys, I saw a small clip of it on Instagram because I've followed, I forgot to see it in, has her name Angie? Fair-skinned girl that sometimes wears the braids. You know what I'm talking about? She shared it on her Instagram and I could tell it was edited and chopped up, but it was so great to hear that. And so I wanted to see the entire, his entire speech. Again, this is from Representative or Senator, excuse me, Cory Booker. So I went on Instagram and I spent a good 30, 40 minutes watching his speech. Not only did I did that, but I also went back and looked at her interactions with the other people who were basically, it was mostly, it was like two Republicans I saw. No, one of them is here in Texas. Drilling her, again, this is Judge Jackson. And so it's just, in long story short, Cory basically said there is nothing that anybody could do or say to kill my joy. This is a joyous moment for us as Americans and as black people. So there's something important that people need to recognize. When you are one or few in a space of primarily, excuse me, white people, oftentimes your expertise, your knowledge is often judged or misjudged or sometimes they want to know, how did you get here? And so Cory was basically trying to say you deserve this.  We come from a people, an ancestry or lineage of people who love this country when the country does not love you. And that's something monumental you guys. And so I started tearing up child. I had JB watch it and JB was shocked. I said she would be the first black woman in this position and JB looked at me just to see him. You have to understand, he's only nine. So if she hears something like this and he knows how long we've been on this earth and he's like thinking, how is that possible? I can tell in his eyes, he doesn't understand. Like, how is that possible that she would be the first one? So yeah, that was just amazing to see him lift her up in that spot and just, it was a beautiful thing. And I felt hell, I felt like it was me and it made me feel proud for her. Cause I really, to be quite honest, I didn't know anything about what was going on. Yeah, I tried not to dwell in some of the political stuff cause sometimes I don't understand everything. I'm gonna be the first one to say that I don't understand all the ins and outs, but this right here was really important. So I'll say, okay. Wait a second, again, I'm watching all the crime. Watch the girl. I have a thing for y'all. Now the only thing that I am so, I know y'all are tired of it too. I am so sick and tired of hearing these stories of children being abducted, children being, I don't wanna say the word, I don't wanna get flagged.  I just don't get, I just don't get this behavior that is running rampant with, and it's not even just young, he was all ages that are doing this. But that's what I look at sometimes is the true crime stuff. And I just feel sick to my stomach with some of the stuff that's happening with these, defenseless children. And that's what gets me in these stories where they can't defend themselves. So what else am I watching? What else, what else, what else? We talked about Jada and Will, our guy talked about Cory Booker. What I'm watching, girl, I am watching a lot of stuff, okay? So let's start up with Snowfall. I'm disclaimer, I am gonna be giving spoilers. You don't wanna hear it, don't watch it baby. So I am watching Snowfall, girl Franklin. So look, look, look, hold on y'all. Is Mel never coming back? Is that it? Because I know that Franklin showed her that he was using that dang on cane as a prop in last season. And he really doesn't eat the cane. So I'm on episode, what episode am I on? I think I'm on episode three. And Franklin, let me just say, the actor that plays Franklin, I see him going places, you guys. He is a great, great, great actor. And so the mother, Franklin's mama, basically told Franklin's girlfriend who was pregnant that, I'ma let you know right now, but because let me back up because they got, there was a big shot, shootout in the previous episode, right? Some people got shot up, the white FBI guy, I forgot his name, he got shot up too.  And so the girlfriend who's also a lawyer was like, okay. So Franklin already told her to go home, right? Childman, Franklin got home, that place was cleared up. She had left, left him a note and of course he blew up. And so Franklin, he ends up going to the doctor's appointment and she's like, I think we need to spend some time up for her, basically. And he's like, well, I can hire her, I talked to her, what is her name, Ari. And I can have Avi, sorry, I can talk to Avi, I can have some people watch you. She's just like, no, no, no. I need to be away. And I honestly think that's a smart move on her part, but Avi said something to Franklin that made Franklin stop and think. So the one scene, I had to play it back. And I think it kind of unsettled Franklin. Avi told Franklin when he first met him, he said, wow, this guy can do anything. He can be a teacher. You know, I'm just making up stuff, y'all. I don't remember the exact words he used. But he's basically telling Franklin, Avi is an older man, so he's been there. He's been in the business for a while. So he's like, wow, this kid can do anything. He could be an author, he could be a lawyer, he could be a rabbi, he could be a drug dealer. And so he goes on to tell Franklin, he's like, you know what, I'm always going through and there's always a war.   And so Franklin's like, he had to think about that for a minute. Well, that's what else. Next up, there's something about Pam. Child Renee Zulu, Renee Zulu Ringer. Y'all know I can't pronounce anything.  There's something about Pam, again, spoiler. So this is based on a true crime. And there are a couple of people, you guys, who are not happy about this series. The family apparently is not happy about the series and how they're making light of the murder. Dark humor and they don't like that, which I couldn't understand because their mother was killed. And that's absolutely horrible. But let me give you the background a little bit because I actually had saw this case. Again, because I'm into the true crime stuff. I actually have followed this case before they even made the movie.  Yes, I'm here for it. So Pamela Hupp was friends with a woman named Betsy. Betsy ends up murder. Her husband calls 911, I believe the 911 call is available on YouTube, maybe wrong. But the husband calls 911 and initially says my wife has committed suicide. And the 911 dispatcher is like, well, was she sad or depressed? And she was battling cancer. And I believe this was her second battle with cancer, unfortunately. And so long story short, he was tried and convicted of murdering his wife and served, I believe, four years in jail before they found enough evidence to charge Pamela Hupp.  She literally told the detectives this. The detectives did a horrible job on this case, because Pamela was the last person to see her alive. She was the person that was listed as the beneficiary. She was changed to the beneficiary. Betsy changed her and removed her husband because she thought he wasn't good with money, right? And the husband, what's his name, Russ, he had an alibi. He was with his friends. They were playing this role, playing like don't use them in debt drags and stuff.  He didn't have time to murder his wife. Not only that, but he stopped and he got like some Orbeez and stuff. And so they had that receipt. But the prosecutors was like, okay, Russ, you got an alibi? Pamela was the last person to see her alive. And she's the beneficiary. Yeah, Russ was the last person to see her alive. And she's the beneficiary. Yeah, Russ did it. Yo, that poor man, that's just horrible. So he spent four years in jail. She was supposed to have set up a fund for her daughters because I believe they had a biological daughter and then Pamela had a daughter, excuse me, Betsy had a daughter with someone else previously or both of the kids from someone else, I'm not sure. But regardless, they had two children, Betsy and Russ. And so Pamela did not send those girls any money. Those girls didn't see a dime of that money, sadly. But this gets even worse. Pamela's mama was found dead on the ground. She said supposedly fell. And guess who was the beneficiary? Pamela was.  So supposedly, I look, I'm hypothetically, Pamela kind of gave her mother all this medicine and pushed her over to collect insurance money. So that would make a second death. Now we have a third person. Y'all, this woman is evil. I have, this case is crazy. What she got convicted of, child, what she's really in jail for is killing this man named Louis. And I don't know if she's been formally accused of killing Pamela. But she clearly, she did it, child. But she's like, so yeah, there's something about Pam. I do have that land tub on my watch list, but I'm not really a y'all. And that could be a weird space because LaKeith, let me tell you something. LaKeith who's on the show, and I find him so attractive, you guys. I know, I like the weird quiet type. It's my husband's weird and quiet, but I find LaKeith overall that weird, quiet, nerdy attractive. That was something that he did post a couple of, he had posts for a magazine and he posted on his Instagram, a picture of him wearing a very feminine-looking shirt, negligee, and some stockings and some pumps.  And then stockings and some pumps. And a couple of people were like, what are you doing, LaKeith?  A couple of people were like, LaKeith, we got questions. And someone said, this ain't it, this ain't it, honey. This is my thing. Yeah, I'm not feeling that look at all. I don't like that. And hear me out. It's not like he came out of the work works like Prince. He's a good one. Prince came out here. He's like, yeah, I wear heels and I wear your girlfriend's mask here and I'll seal your girl. But and Prince was confident with it. Like, he came out here cool to collect and now he wants to wear, you know, he's like, okay, give me my pumps. I'm ready. So I'm like, I'm not. And so he ended up, another thing that didn't sit well with me, live in it. If that's what you want to do, live in it. He deleted the picture and everything. I'm like, what happened to your heels, LaKeith? So he removed the picture because of all the comments. What she has every right to do with his channel on Instagram, but I'm like, baby.  So he only did this. These were photos he was sharing for a magazine cover he had did. We'll be talking about, child, we went way off, y'all know how I am. So I do have Atlanta on the bandwagon. I do have Good Morning Veronica, which is like a detective true crime type of show. I'm watching something called Bad Vegan, which is based on, it's almost like a documentary on Netflix. I'm watching that. And I am also watching Bridgerton. Yes, season two of Bridgerton is back. The Duke's fine ass isn't here, but baby, there is so much in the show that I'm not missing him as much. So in the end, again, disclaimer, we are going to be revealing some stuff. Spoiler alert. The end of season two, we found out who Lady Whistle Down is. And she is Penelope, AKA Penn. And did y'all know that the voice, the person doing the voice over is Julie Andrews, Mary Poppins. I love her, y'all. I love Mary Poppins. Anyway, it's Julie Andrews. And Julie Andrews, I have to look at her age. Mama is 86, good for her. So she does the voice over. And by the way, the guy that does to catch a predator, he does the voice over for, there's something about Pam. She's like, y'all know that, yeah. Anyway, so, Bridgeton. So now everyone wants to figure out who is, who she is. So of course, there has to be a storyline that who is going to be the new couple and they already give it to us. So the queen, honey, the queen came out. I am here for the fashions. The, whoever is responsible for the costume is doing a remarkable job. I love that the fashions aren't, because typically in this type of era, which is the 1800s, early 1800s, it can be very pale blue, white, ivory. But we get pops of red, burgundy with Lady Dunbarry. Was that how you pronounce her name, y'all? Is it Dunbarry or Danbury? Anyway, with the orange eyebrows. You get yellow with Pam. You notice that everyone has, every character, at least I've noticed that the characters tend to stay within their color scheme. Lady Dunbarry tends to stay in the warm colors like the wines, the burgannies. Kate Shema, a Sharma, excuse me, who was an Indian actress, who was absolutely breathtaking. I do appreciate that they hired or they casted a dark skin. Most of them said South Asian. Some of them were some color and typically, you know, we know that Indians can have the colorism thing too. It can get really bad with them. And a lot of that is based on their cast system. Even though I'm sorry, I'm going way off tangent. So Kate, her colors tends to be the blues. Penelope's mother has to be my best. She is dressing the hell, whoever's dressing her. All of her dresses are beautiful. Her color seems to be the greens, okay? So Daphne, she tends to be the whites, the pinks, you know, very girly. So with this season, they're trying to find the diamond. And the new diamond is Kate's younger sister, who she's been basically molding her. You two and their mother, Mary apparently had a falling out with the queen because I believe the mother, excuse me, whose name is Mary, just up in love. She up in love didn't tell anyone.  But, so anyway, lady Daphne was like, she's telling, she's letting the sisters know, since y'all up in my house, I'm gonna have you to have the best tutors.   You know, you're gonna learn French, Portuguese. A sister, Kate was like, I've spent a great deal of time teaching my daughter. I mean, my sister, because it's almost like a daughter to her. She's like, I spent a great deal of time teaching my sister how to do all of this so that she can marry for, you know, get someone that's suitable. But there is an almost agenda to Kate's finding her sister or someone who is wealthy, which I'm not gonna give that away just in case y'all want to. But baby, Lady Dunbarry was like, I don't remember what scene it was. But, oh, this was the scene. Kate was basically like, Lady Dunbarry was questioning Kate. Like, you okay with not finding a husband? Okay, you just want to focus on your sister.  And Kate was like, you seem to be fine with it. Chow, Lady Dunbarry was like, excuse me, Hussey. Lady Dunbarry said, I have lived my life. Chow, I'm a widow. And you better hope that you can have a life like mine.   That's basically what she told her. And Kate showed up and was like, So, I believe the French, what is her name? The French dressmaker saw a pin down there, pretended to be an Irish lady. But she's like, I'm gonna keep this secret. You down here buying quills and ink and stuff. I ain't gonna tell nobody what you're doing. We all have our secrets, but you know, keep it classy. I feel so sorry for Pin. You know, y'all, my favorite character is actually, it would have to be Pin. I like her. I think she's absolutely adorable. So, yeah, that's what's going on.  Oh, oh, I forgot to say this. Clearly, Kate is in love with Tony Anthony Bridgerton, who basically, her sister was named the Diamond. And the Diamond is typically the most valued girl in the country or the city or whatever. And so the queen named the younger Sharma girl, the Diamond. And the brother, I think he has a thing, I think he's smitten with the younger sister, but he is in love with the older sister. So, is she be really interesting to see how this plays out, y'all? I think the younger sister is trying to hold it together for a child. I know one thing, that Duke was here. They are none of those men would have a chance. None of them would have a chance, baby. All right, y'all, that is it.  What I'm going to do is, I need to really pay attention to these ends, make sure these ends are really, really put together. I see myself wearing a lot of twists smaller than this. And if I do do a twist out of some washing goes, which I don't want to do a lot of washing goes, because washing knows. So that is it, y'all, with my hair back like this. That is it, baby. All right, you guys, take care. Bye.

Good morning everyone and welcome. This is Melissa Arma with the Stock Swoosh, and I'm here reviewing JPM This was a top watch today in the play of the day in the Stock Swoosh show live trading room Had a great entry on this and a good exit held it Which I don't even normally do but we had the market with us today to power trend and made almost three grand in this today Over $2,900. So I'm very very pleased good solid solid Move and this is even setting up again In fact, you could be in this for the afternoon bigger target in this if it breaks the low is 84 50 $84. I mean who knows where this could go. So let's take a look at the entry So the first entry was here. I didn't get this. Okay, I was in something now So actually did two trades right away this morning because the market was so bearish But anyways this dropped you could have been in it here. Then I decided to do it in here. Okay Then I even moved the stop. I ended up moving it to 45 Although I had had it then at 35 which held within two cents, but then I moved it up to 45 So shorted it in here You could have got a better entry when it rallied up here and got it up and actually had a smaller stop than I had But I sized it for 30 cents even though I moved the stop a little bit So it worked and I wanted to get a buck out of it and I almost did okay Some people got out of it in here, which was the first target and You could have held it down if you wanted to I was trying to get it down to 85 Fell fell fell. This is a long time for me to be in a trade close enough Got out of it with almost a dollar within a couple of pennies Once you get something done five cents eight cents seven cents ten cents from the target, you know time of the day out So got out worked Um Nice nice move in here and what I thought about this whole look of the chart here today Was that it really was lower that you know for the for the day at least and that the stock has had a big move up I mean the stock has been rallying I mean you can count on one hand the red bars here in November to Sunday or January in the stock It's had monster move very bullish. So people are taking profits. It's not like this is chained to trend of JPM So I felt this would have absolutely no buying today and selling action and that obviously people that shorted like me So when you've got the market power trending with you, you can be in something longer You can also take late morning or late afternoon trades and that's exactly here what I did I held it longer But you could have got out of it quick in the morning like we usually do I wanted to buck out of this today and it was a nice move with 30 cent stop So have a good day everyone if you are interested in learning my method You can take the golden gat class where I teach the 26 points JPM rated 21 points today You would have to email me if you want to sign up my email is Melissa at the stocks wish calm I give you the picks every morning with the entries and the stop what we're watching what we're doing Usually I do one thing today was unusual, but the market I knew would fall today hard and that is exactly what it did So congratulations to everyone that did JPM and held it Very very nice move have a good day everyone and email me at Melissa the stocks wish calm If you'd like more information, thanks


Yeah, it's like camp. It's like OTAs. You're working on yourself. You're working on your craft, so a lot of times you don't have the time to focus on the little small details in the middle of the season because you're always worried about skiing, you're worried about the next pull. This is the time that we can focus on the small details and so we're able to take our level to the next game. Did you look back on, like, do that reflection that you guys are doing now? I mean, quietly it seems like this is one of the best years you've had. Is there something different or is there anything that you're going to have one different reason to allow that to happen? Yeah, the way you break down tape, the way you study, you're trying to play at a high level every week and when you're out there, the more you play beside each other, the more, as an offensive lineman, you gain that momentum, you gain that prep and just getting extra reps together. If it's individual, if it's pass pro, if it's run fit, you're just working on the details and the more comfortable you are with the guy beside you, the better you're going to play. Yeah, you want to be, as a unit, you have, yeah, you want to be able to protect the quarterback better, run the ball more efficient and not have negative runs. As individually, everybody has different things. If it's pad level, if it's hand placement, if it's different combination for each position. So as a group, we want to eliminate negative runs, penalties, get the first, first down on drives and kind of get it going. Once we get that first, first down, I feel like we get the ball rolling and just not having negative plays. Yeah, everybody's watching on these games and that's when we want to be out there.   We love these kind of games.  So you got to sell out.  It's one game at a time now.


Julius Malema, White People's Dogs Eat Better Than Black People Economic Freedom Fighter Leader Julius Malema says the blacks are eating worse less than the dogs of the whites. He said they are poor and government still fails them. Malema stated during the party's provincial manifesto rally held in Reba Cross outside Burgers Fort in Limpopo on Saturday. He said the part is here to rescue the poor people from their sufferings. We can't even be worse than the dogs of the whites. Even dogs of Cyril Ramaphosa are not eating the food worthy Artenne but when this government increases social grant for our children they add just Artenne. This must come to an end. The dogs of the whites are not even eating bones but they eat meat and leave the bones to be disposed but we eat bones, said Malema. He promised the supporters that after they win the elections in May the ancestors will welcome them with the rainfall. He said immediately after that they will arrest former President Jacob Zuma and followed by Cyril Ramaphosa and their fellow comrades. They may think they are off the hook now about the people who were killed in Marikana but after the May 8, 2019 we will be working hard. Mama Winnie Mandela would have gave us the red signal by then. Nelson Mandela will be smiling in his grave when we deal with them, he said.


اسلام علیکم پاکستان آہ last time we were talking about the obligation to employees in good corporate governance and today we are going to continue with the same chapter for a very simple reason that this is a very very important aspect of corporate governance and good governance together and again the employee is a very very important stakeholder to the whole organization actually the backbone of any organization the employees motivation the employees abilities the employees competencies and also the employees objectivity to ensure that the organization runs properly and optimal and also in profit these all depend upon how the employer or the organization is treating them now ladies and gentlemen when we look at the obligations then humane treatment is very important employees as their first customers and above all as human and friendly healthy and competitive environment for the workers so again ladies and gentlemen what we see is that the real first customer of an organization is not the ones who are buying the product but are actually thrown employees and that is what we say are the internal clients so the employee is the internal client while the people who are buying the products are actually external clients and secondly a very important thing is is that humanity and to be humane is a very very important aspect of administration and of governance and then to create friendly healthy and competitive environment for the workers to ensure that the environment is conducive and enabling to ensure that a worker is able to exhibit and come out and execute his own inner competencies and also knowledge that he or she has and that all of it can be honed on to the betterment and the performance of the organization is extremely important now the next thing is that ladies and gentlemen it's also very important to make the employees participate so they should be participation by all the genders the participation needs to be informed and organized that means it should not be random it should not be scurrilous it should actually be focused there should be freedom of association and expression also and then one should also be able to organize them as a civil society so all of these different aspects of participation become very important and it is the responsibility of the organization to create such an environment that the employee can then participate at multiple levels and that is extremely important we also talk about empowerment management must have the freedom to drive the enterprise forward empowerment is a process of actualizing the potential of its employees so just like in Maslow's hierarchy we talk about physiological needs we talk about safety needs we talk about social needs we talk about esteem needs now an organization is actually a family is an ecosystem of people working towards one particular objective it is very important that all of these are taken care of by the organization but also the fifth level of Maslow's hierarchy which is self actualization which basically means that a person is empowered to fulfill and materializes our own ambitions and also in that journey ensure that they can give the best to their organization and that creates a win-win situation so empowerment actually creates a win-win situation and ensures that the company excels and the employee is able to exhibit and implement his or her best within that particular organization and that is the type of relationship we actually need within organizations empowerment unleashes creativity and innovation throughout the organization invest decision making powers in the most appropriate levels in the organizational hierarchy so let me tell you ladies and gentlemen we earlier talked in the first chapter about kaizen and that is continuous improvement through small steps it's a Japanese philosophy now the Japanese basically believe that decision making should start from bottom up that means the grassroots workers employees to be given opportunity to take decisions related to whatever work they are doing and then as they we keep on going up up to the top most level they should be proper decision making and that can only be done through empowerment so empowerment actually unleashes creativity and innovation and also ensures that the employees feel an ownership to the company and to their own ideas and that enables them to contribute in a better way and not just as machines but as Cuban beings as organic beings as beings who can think who can create who can innovate and make a better change for the organization that is extremely important and with all of this it is also very important that there is equity and inclusiveness a corporation is a miniature of society just like I was mentioning earlier whose well-being depends on ensuring that all its employees feel that they have taken it and do not feel excluded from the mainstream just like I was saying there has to be cross ownership the employee and the management own the company and the employees are the backbone of the company and they should be made honored dignified respected in all of this model of ensuring that the employee participates owns and gives his or her best for the organization and that is done through equity and inclusiveness now this also requires all those groups which are vulnerable to be given opportunities to improve and also maintain their well-being so all of this is very very important and it is like a two-way channel that the company ensures that it is giving a wonderful environment and then the employees participate to their best and to their maximum thereby optimizing profitability and performance now besides that it is also very important that there is a participative and collaborative environment equal opportunities are given for all levels of management and decision making and in collaboration it is basically working and ensuring peace and harmony between the different working community and the management which in terms being high productivity higher profits and higher market share so again ladies and gentlemen just to sum up this chapter when we take care of our employees our employees will take care of the organization when we ensure that their fundamental needs are met the employee will ensure that the fundamental needs of an organization are also met when we give empowerment decision making ownership equity and fairness then the employee gives his or her knowledge competencies values whatever they have within them for the organization this leads to a win-win situation a better working environment and better circumstances for the employee and higher profits higher profitability higher market share and better performance for the organization and that is the way forward thank you


Buenos dias shipmates, this is Secretario of the Navy, Carlos Del Toro. How's that for a bit of Spanglish? As we observe Hispanic Heritage Month, please take a moment to remember the many Hispanic sailors and Marines who have served throughout our nation's history. Submariners like Captain Marion Frederick Ramirez de Arellano, who served with distinction beneath the Pacific waves throughout World War II, Medal of Honor recipients like First Lieutenant Baldo Mero Lopez, the first Marine up the seawall on Incheon. And aviators like Lieutenant Commander Everett Alvarez Jr., who endured eight years of brutal captivity in North Vietnam, and leaders like Major General Angela Salinas, the First Latina General Officer in the Marine Corps. Today nearly one in every four Marines is Hispanic, over 52,000. Think about that. There are over 67,000 Hispanics serving in our Navy, 16.7% of the fleet. I am proud to serve alongside each and every one of them, and I am grateful for all that you and your families do in defense of our nation. Muchas gracias.
