You know it would be great. Okay, go. What? What would be good?  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Give a ghost pepper to your son. No. That'd be so funny. No. Yeah, it'd be great. I'd love to see that. I have thought about doing like a spice challenge on our channel, but... That's not a... But like you? I don't know. Because I would be out automatically. The f***. Halloping you.  I'm Rick. And you call us on Instagram. We have juicy content. They go on Patreon. It's so juicy. Personal YouTube channel. It's all in the description below. I mean, it would make for great content for sure. But I also don't like putting myself through pain. Right. Which is what happens when anything's spicy. Good mythical morning. You've watched them do their... Oh, it's so funny, but I don't know that I would ever want to experience that.  No. I've hardly. I have. I have. I have. Not a whole thing, but I've sliced it. And it's not... It's not a level of heat. It's a measure of pain. Yeah.  I don't like it. Yeah. Today we're doing a little bit of an informational video. Great. It's about... God, I don't want to mispronounce the name. But... Sam Smith. What was wrong? That was really not that hard. Okay. It's the... Forgive me if I mispronounce this. Hadiswara Temple. In Tamil Nadu. In Tamil Nadu. It's ancient wonder of India. India. So I think it's just... Hadiswara Temple. This is just an informational video about this temple. Cool. So it's, I believe, the history channel's site. So I have a prediction. Yes. It'll be a British woman narrative. No. It wasn't even close. We've been to Tamil Nadu. A lot of birds. We've been to Tamil Nadu. A lot of birds. They're all... Yeah. That's all carved? Oh. Oh, thank you. They were trained in. Kind of like Egypt. Well, yeah, carried in. Wow.  I was going to say, the base of the temple was wide. And the ground was green. That's true. That's true.  That's a big guy in the armhole. That's a big guy in the armhole. That's a big guy in the armhole. And she can stick it together. That's what she said. It's one of those things that obviously the first thing that strikes me is just the way they were able to carve all those beautiful... Yeah, just the hand carving. Just the hand carving is so impressive to me. Yeah, I agree. But under all that, it's the same thing that's so mind boggling about the pyramids, obviously.  Slays, as we know. Well, actually, I've heard theories, different theories. It was like their tax to work on the pyramids and stuff. In order to live there, they were... You had to do that? Do that as your payment. It was your payment, but... It was still... That's just a theory. There may only be unions back then for pity's sake. Anyways, but did he say they built an incline and took them six years to get it out? I guess that's what they're theorizing. They're theorizing based on the weight and how many animals it would take. And it wasn't just... Why doesn't it take six years? I don't think it was just for the actual getting it to the top. It was the actual creation of a hill that could take that much weight and not collapse under the weight of it going up the hill. Oh, so they had to build the hill. So they had to bring it out. But they had to get rid of the hill. Correct. So I think from start to finish, that whole endeavor to get that 81-ton thing to the top of it was a six-year process from building the ramp to tearing it all down and getting it out of there. Oh, that's so exhausting. I'm tired just thinking about it. I know. Oh, that's awful, but it's beautiful. It's one of those things, obviously, whenever we can get out of America again, which isn't soon. Well, it's... And it is one of the things I've talked to Andrani about all the time. It's comical that when you talk to someone in India about their history and their buildings and the things that they have, the majority of them are older than our nation. Most things in the world are. Yeah, because we're such a baby place. We're one of the youngest countries. Especially the West Coast, because in America everything started on the East, so the youngest place in the youngest country is over here on the West Coast. Technically the youngest, I believe. Right? Well, yeah. Where is it Alaska? No, Hawaii would be the youngest in every way imaginable, because it's also the earliest, the youngest creation on the planet of actual landmass. That's true. Yeah, that's Hawaii. Hawaii wins. Which? We stole it! America! I have a question. How did it get populated? The... Polynesians, obviously, from somewhere just happened on it? Yeah, they were traveling and they just happened on it. Yeah. That's an amazing... That's like finding a needle in a haystack. And then America's like, mine. Mine. Yeah. America! America. See that? I'm gonna pee on it. That's mine. At least we made them a state, unlike one of our other territories. We are not gonna... America's terrible.


What is going on guys, it's your boy DPSH here today with another Destiny 2 video, so ahead of E3 and the Destiny shit we should see later today or tomorrow. Gamingformer have dropped a few details of the Hunter's reskinned subclass, I'm calling it like many do in a pole dancer subclass now although it does look kind of fresh. We all know really it is just a blade dancer with a few added extra touches and something massive taken away, but before we get into the video guys, at the end if you deem it worthy leaving a like isn't much appreciated on my behalf. Ok, so what do we know about the pole dancer subclass? So the super is called the Arcstaff and this is what Gamingformer had to say about it after their hands on with this new subclass. The Arcstaff super serves as the centrepiece for the subclass. The Roman super looks and feels amazing in action while still moving very fast it feels more comfortable than the Hunter's previous Arcblade super that was a part of the blade dancer subclass in Destiny 1. I found it easier to manoeuvre between targets both in front and behind me and my strikes inflicted major damage, even so the super didn't feel invincible. In one PvE sequence I got all the confidence smashed into a large group of vex attackers and their energy blasts finished me off. To be honest to me it sounds like a blade dancer. Ok so grenades, what grenades will this subclass offer? Well, it's got skip grenades, it's got flux grenades, it's got arc bolt grenades, they are all back and in the words of Gamingformer, not much has changed here. Jumps we have high jump, strafe jump which offers better mid-directional control and we have stripper jump. Notice guys, blink has gone, now that's massive, blink is a jump so to speak. Many people used and loved. Now it's been replaced with triple jump taken directly from Gunslinger and blink is no more as well not on Hunter anyway. Now if you were a blink user, how do you feel about this? Let me know down below in that comments section. Ok so what else do we know about this subclass and what it offers? Well we know of third abilities which will be shared across all subclasses and on Hunter it's the dodge or as we know now the shade step. You have a choice between two different dodges you can choose from. Marksman dodge which reloads your equipped weapon when dodging and gambler's dodge which generates melee energy when you dodge near enemies. So what do we get in the subclass paths? If you don't know I will explain, bear with me. Each subclass now paired with all your other abilities offers two more paths. Each path consists of four perks and you cannot mix and match perks from each path. Perks are set in stone through that path. You can use one path for four perks or the other, you cannot mix and match perks. The first path is called Way of the Warrior. Perks are combat flow which recharges your dodge class ability upon a melee kill, deadly reach which extends the range of your melee attack after a dodge, lethal current which makes your arc staff attack sit twice after dodging and shocking blow which makes your fist emit lightning on a strike. The Way of the Warrior seems to me like it would work best with gambler's dodge for damn sure. The other path is called Way of the Wind. First perk here we have is disorienting blow. Taking an enemy with this melee disorient them leaving them vulnerable.  Next we have lightning reflexes which lets you take damage while dodging then we have battle meditation. When critically wounded melee and grenades recharge drastically faster and then we have a focused breathing which helps turn your hunter into a speed machine. With this ability active sprinting reduces your dodge cooldown and you gain increased sprint speed. Damn I think I like Way of the Wind. Now on screen we are seeing gaming form is verdict on the pole dancer subclass. Obviously I won't judge it until I get my hands on it but from what we've seen no doubt it does look like most people think just a re-skinned blade dancer. Hopefully when we use it we feel a massive difference. Also sometime soon we should get more footage of this Arc Strider pole dancer subclass actual gameplay from content creators using it and giving an honest, unpaid thought opinion which I can't wait for. So the Arc Strider subclass, a new subclass coming to Destiny 2 for the hunter. Destiny 2 as we all know coming out September 8th which I cannot wait for. So guys what you've learned about this new subclass or this re-skinned subclass. How do you feel about it? How do you feel about Blink being taken away? Me personally Blink I mean I hated going against people using it. I mean they're Blink above me and I'll get so confused it was unbelievable. I'm kind of glad it's gone but I know a lot of people who used it will be gutted. But let me know your opinion down below in that comments section. But guys hope you enjoyed the video leaving a like is much appreciated on my behalf. Thanks as always for stopping by and I will see you on that next one.


Let's do a speed round. Let's just keep flying questions up on screen one after the other without waiting and just do a speed round of answers. What are we calling this crypto version of a .com boom? We need a name. Cryptomania 2020, 2021. Cryptomania started in 2020, Cryptomania 2021. The post pandemic boom, boomdemic. Next question. Should we try to attack Bitcoin as we pretty much know that it can only reinforce it? Absolutely, you should attack Bitcoin by all means. Keep attacking it. Everybody else is. Why would you not want to participate in this fun party? If you have the security skills, attack Bitcoin. Now, if you do find something, then I would suggest you use responsible disclosure, which means contacting the software developers who are managing various client implementations and discreetly and provably, demonstrate what you found so that they can fix it and then announce the fix and then announce the vulnerability after everybody has patched it. Yes, please do attack Bitcoin. Bitcoin or Bitcoins asks Matt, gee, what is the plural form of currency? Well, it depends. I prefer Bitcoin without an S. I'd like to say I have three Bitcoin. I have 5.2 Bitcoin. I have 57 Bitcoin. And part of the reason for that is because because Bitcoin is divisible into such small units, it feels like an uncountable quantity. And uncountable quantities are best expressed without a plural form, right? So money in general in that form, an uncountable form. So if you say I have 5.2, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1, 3 Bitcoins, it sounds weird. I prefer it to be Bitcoin, but Bitcoins is also correct. And we see that in other currencies too. People will say I have three euro and they also say I have four euros and that's also perfectly acceptable. I do not have 57 or 5.12 Bitcoin. Just in case that was, this is an example, people. Okay, back to the next question. Are you concerned at all about the idea of fractional bitcoining? What does anonymous mean by this? They mean the idea that people are buying Bitcoin but that Bitcoin doesn't actually exist because they're using it on a custodial platform and they're being given Bitcoin that is being sold to multiple people. But like fractional reserve banking, I'm not worried about fractional bitcoining primarily because I encourage people to withdraw from custodial services to while it's they control at which point you get the actual Bitcoin. And if you have Bitcoin on a custodial service that you cannot withdraw or do not withdraw, then not your keys, not your coins is the rule that applies. So also if you create fractional Bitcoin, you run an enormous risk as the provider because if you do allow withdrawals or if the price gets away from you, you can end up in very, very serious trouble. So fractional Bitcoin, which has happened, we've seen a lot of exchanges get basically through embezzlement or theft, not actually have the Bitcoin that the customers need and then go bankrupt. That's what happened with empty locks. That's what happened with Quadriga. That's what happened with a bunch of exchanges in the past. So that's basically a buyer beware caveat emptor. I hope you enjoyed that video.

Let me now sum up with some closing remarks about the introduction to aircraft design. Let us look at some basic laws of airplane design. One fundamental law is that simplicity is the essence of true elegance. It can also save weight and or reduce the cost. When people do aircraft design they try to bring in very complicated or very new looking or innovative shapes but complexity does not help, simplicity is a true elegance. The second important law of airplane design is that if you cannot build it then you cannot sell it. So ability to build it quickly less expensive and in large numbers using resources available to you is the key in making a good aircraft design that can be sold. And these laws have been propounded by John McMaster who spent his distinguished career in the Boeing commercial air place company and was recently honoured by his parent university, his alma mater Purdue University. Some final comments from my side. The first thing that we should educate the student is that there is no need to design the new aircraft if an existing aircraft is available and meets your requirements. Sometimes the aircraft that meets your requirements may be denied to you or your country because of political reasons then it is fine to make your own aircraft to meet your own requirements. But if it is possible to get something you know that meets your requirements totally and it is cost effective because your exercise is very expensive and it takes lot of time. So one has to be very careful in first deciding is there a need to design a new aircraft or can an existing aircraft be used to modify your own requirement to meet your own requirement. Secondly, there are no unique solutions in aircraft design. As I mentioned this also in one of the past clips. You give the same design problem to two or three different design companies equally good and equally capable you will get radically different solutions to meet the same requirement. This has been demonstrated in the several aircraft design competitions which have taken place in which the US DOD has funded the design and to meet the same requirements you know two different companies came up with two different aircraft. Next is about the process of aircraft design. It is not something that can be logically terminated at any given point. It has to be terminated artificially. It runs out either when the money or the time or the patience runs out. So this is something which has to be really understood. You cannot have convergence in aircraft design naturally. It has to be done. Secondly, it is a team effort. You cannot say that I have designed this aircraft because it is a team effort and when you have a team in the end there are no heroes, there are only villains because everyone has a complaint about the other team member who did not do what they thought was possible to do it. And finally, the bottom line is cost. Cost is everything in today's operating scenario for aircraft design. A design is good if it is cost effective, otherwise it is not even worth the paper on which it is drawn. So the students should be sensitized to these important points regarding aircraft design. Thank you for your attention. If you have any questions, we will use the standard channel to sort out your queries. Thank you.


The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian University-Sano Western Zone has described as illegality in oil and void the purported prescription of staff unions by the Government Council of the Akiti State University. Announced last weekend, our correspondent Olasuko Mi Ogumiko compelled this report as presented from our studio. Describing the decision as April full pranks escalated in the month of April, the association urged its members in the Akiti State University to continue to abide by the instructions of the branch leadership and ignore the attempts by what is described as despots and tyrants who want to turn them to slaves in their own homelands. The National Vice President of the Sano Western Zone, Abdul Subb As-Salam, while presenting a seven-point demand in a statement called on Governor Kaidi Fahimi to intervene by removing Professor Thale Omole-led Governing Council. Irregular dismissal of over 1,000 staff, the non-payment of five-month salaries in 2018, the non-remittance of pension deductions, the criminal non-remittance of tax deductions, the non-payment of end allowances since 2016 till date, be addressed instead of chasing shadows and distracting the unions with a purported prescription that holds no water. Salaam, whom maintained that the reason for the prescription was a misrepresentation of the realities on the ground, saying that the union had embarked on a series of protests which are their legitimate rights as workers to call attention to the activities at its endangered lives and properties.

Well, I think Erie's challenge will be to continue to revise and revisit its strategy making to ensure that it's using its resources in the optimal manner. The resources you have now are quite a bit smaller than they were when I left here. And yet I think the call, demand for the kinds of research that are needed are no less than they were then. They're just a different kind of research. Their work in biological gene splicing, all of these in some sense exotic kinds of areas will continue to be important. And I've always admired Erie for being flexible enough to get out, to stop, to terminate work that it really doesn't belong in anymore and continue to look for areas where it can make a sizable contribution. I think the areas that I've been gone for 15 years now, more than that, 17 years almost, that I get excited about when I read about Erie today are your challenges to get better nutrition into the existing rice plant, better resistance to diseases and insects into the existing rice plant, as well as increasing yields, making it more adaptable to conditions, environmental conditions in countries in Africa, for example, where they really have major food problems. Although I won't say we don't have problems here. We certainly have major problems and will continue to. The area of climate change, is there anything that Erie can do to keep the greenhouse gas emissions down or reduce them to somehow reduce our overall problem of climate change, global warming, that sort of thing? I think there are plenty of challenges for you to continue to look to the future with.


Palm olive soap your beauty hope and luster cream shampoo for soft glamorous dream girl hair Bring you our miss Brooks starring Eve Arden teaches English at Madison High School and although like most of our teachers she possesses a higher than average intelligence She also possesses the higher than average Curiosity of most of our women especially when it comes to weighing machines There's nobody more concerned about the result than a female who has just deposited her penny in the slot Unless it's the male tub of lard who was on the scale when I got there This happened last Wednesday after school. I was passing the drugstore and just happened to have a penny on me Tuesday was payday So I approached the weighing machine and like I said this brewery horse was stomping on the spring And when he saw his weight on the little card He looked around the drugstore then made tracks for a sign saying girdle department I calmly stepped aboard and when my card came out I glanced casually at my weight Chuckled as if to say how much accuracy can you expect for a cent? And it's just about to throw the card away when I noticed my fortune printed on the back It said a tall dark man is coming into your life Then of course I did drop the card it landed in my purse and I proceeded on home By the next morning, I'd forgotten about it completely as usual I'd left word for mrs.

Philip Boynton the bashful biologist no mrs. Davis so far He's managed to remain in the suburbs of my life Well, of course, I don't believe in fortunes on cards and crystal gazing and palm reading and all that nonsense There is however a logical and scientific way to arrive at certain conclusions about one's personal destiny What's that mrs.

Oh, that's all right, mrs. Brooks I don't like to take advantage of the fact that because your car is incapacitated and I can jump into the breach now And then transportation wise that is you can't very well refuse gracefully, but I'm telling you you can before I even ask you We're enough isn't it? Where are things since Clyde McCoy? But being an English teacher I practically understand you Walter just what kind of advice do you need this morning? Oh, it's a girl. What's a girl Harriet Conklin? Why Walter Denton you've been wearing your glasses again What about Harriet? I'm afraid it's a pretty long story That's all right.

Conklin granted who in turn is married to Harriet's mother Mrs. Conklin it all started the night before last See I told you it was a long story only the way you tell it go ahead Well the night before last I had a date with Harriet to go to the movies when I got to her house to pick her up She acted like I had bubonic plague or something. Did you I mean What did she do well? She said that she couldn't be bothered with me anymore because a tall dark man was coming into her life her too Be an epidemic Where did she find out about this tall dark man? Well, that's where her mother comes in Maybe there's a shorter way to listen to this story Her mother and Harriet had taken out the Ouija board that afternoon That's when they found out about this tall guy Well after all Walter you can't compete with a non-existent rival. That's just the trouble. He's not non-existent. He's not no He materialized yesterday. Oh now Walter. No, it's true. Miss Brooks Harriet told me all about him when I called yesterday evening Although I wasn't going to after the way she treated me the evening before but when I did she told me that this tall Dark French teacher had checked in at their house to give her father his papers before he began teaching French at school today I know you're telling me something because I can see your lips moving Don't you understand this Brooks it's called an exchange deal this teacher came over from Paris, France What did we send them to outfielders in the shortstop? Well, I don't know about that, but I do know that Harriet sounded like this French teacher was a combination of Maurice Chevrolet and Maurice Chevrolet and Charles Buick I was gonna say Charles Boyer That's what I was afraid you were gonna say This teacher must be quite an interesting personality. What's his name? What's see now? Well, there's an article about him in the school paper Oh, I know it's Manette Jack Weasman net Jack Weasman net oh You mean Jack money say that is a romantic sounding name. All right. I'll bet he's a very nice person Oh, it's not him. I'm worried about it's Harriet since he showed up. She thinks the Ouija board is infallible the Ouija board Oh, that's ridiculous Harriet's much too sensible to buy. I'm surprised at her next thing. You know, she'll be having her tea leaves read three children Our miss Brooks starring Eve Arden will continue in just a moment But first here is Vern Smith with an important announcement Doctors leading skin specialists prove palm olive soap using nothing But palm olive can bring lovelier complexions regardless of age skin type or previous beauty care That's oily skin for Helen Vixen Minneapolis fresher brighter color for Clara Franklin San Francisco Smoother younger looking skin for Rochelle Bruchaud New York City Yes, 36 doctors leading skin specialists advised using palm olive for 1,285 women many with complexion problems some had dry skin some oily some dull and coarse looking and using palm olive alone Nothing else two out of three one fresher brighter skin.

There must be something to it Imagine the very next day He came along. It's the first time I've ever seen capital letters and conversation He must be quite attractive attractive isn't the word miss Brock.

Well, I suppose Thank you just the same miss here, but I would rather not leave the school proper during my first day Ah an admirable spirit money if more of our home grown teachers had it Madison High School would be a better place in which to learn something Something like English for example Well as the little boy in the Fisk ad says it's time to retire Come in Hello, mr. Boyd. Hmm. Oh, it's you miss Brooks. How are you today? Fine? Thanks? I'm glad I caught you before your class got in I wanted to ask you about lunch Well, I'll be happy to join you. Thanks very much.

Just American You're getting quite a sense of humor must catch it from your frogs Really though. Do you speak French for instance? No, I don't then you wouldn't know what a French person would be saying to me If he said it in French, would you know, I wouldn't good This may be a very interesting lunch for all of us Yes, you see there's a new teacher in school. Oh, you mean Jacques Monet. You've met him Oh, yes, I had to deliver some papers to mr. Conklin's home yesterday and he was there Oh, he's a prince of a chap. We had quite a time together. It's nice to see him again at lunch. Oh, it will As a matter of fact, you'll have to apologize to inform you I'm afraid I'll be a little late Oh, you will that's too bad mr. Boyd. Why will you be late? Well, it's McDougal here. You know my bullfrog He's got me worried miss Brooks. It's his throat. He can't seem to croak above a whisper. Oh, that's too bad poor McDougal Hi Mac He must have gargled It's sound pretty good, but now I'll still have to stay close to him to see how the medication I'm giving him catches on I'll get to lunch as soon as I can though. Oh good old Jack Monet. He's a real man's man You've been wrong before a brother Boynton, but never like this Here's a nice table mr. Monet. Let's sit down. Oh, yes, miss Brooks. This is certainly a big restaurant It's a cafeteria mr. Monet Yes, and now then shall we look at the car du jour bill of fare bill of fare Oh, you mean menu they don't have any menus here mr. Monet. No Then how do you select an order? Well here? You don't exactly select an order. You just sort of point and holler I'll show you in a minute, but first I'd like to ask a little favor mr. Monet as you know mr. Boynton is joining us for lunch Oh, yes, yes fine fellow mr. Boynton a real man's man on him at fit I Mean he is a very nice man, but he's sort of shy shy Why should he be shy? He is tall muscular with a fine head of hair good teeth pleasing manner. What else is new? What I wanted to ask of you is very simple you see mr. Boynton is too bashful to ask you himself But I'm sure he'd get a tremendous kick That is he'd enjoy it if you spoke nothing but French during our lunch, but why well He's trying to learn how to speak your language. He understands it fine, but he's not sure of his pronunciation He could learn a lot from you about a lot of things Well, I suppose I could help him. He's coming over now mr. Monet Remember how you kissed my hand this morning. Would you do it again, please? What about quickly mr. Monet? It's part of mr. Boynton's education Hurry here my hand miss books. I don't like to be how do you say Golgi, but you're pushing out one of my feelings What's the trouble mr. Monet got something caught in your teeth Just an old cuticle of mine Mr. Boynton, how's it going today, mr. Yeah How do you like our cafeteria, it's good mr. Monet says it's lovely, but not half as lovely as I am why mr. Monet, how flattering What do we eat today? Well, how about the roast beef?  Monet? Tell him in French Oh mr. Monet you and your compliments Tell mr. Boynton what you want to eat, but I do not understand I am mr.  Oh, no, I can't miss Brooks not really Those are just a few words I picked up when I was in the army the army you were stationed in New Orleans, and you know it, but near the French Quarter Let us not delay any longer, I don't suppose they have what I really want for lunch But maybe hey do they ever have fog's legs?

Let's all have them, huh me eat frogs legs What I'd feel like a like a cannibal If you'll excuse me, I I'm afraid I've lost my appetite. I'll see you later, mr. Brooks Why uh, why would he feel like a cannibal if he ate fog's legs he is not a frog Only in some ways is he not a frog mr. Monet, but don't worry about mr. Boynton now. Oh, yes, you're right You're right miss Brooks, you know in a way in a way. I'm glad we're alone There is something I would like to ask you you see I I have been searching for just the right one ever since I come to America Now now well, I feel that my search is at an end You are the one I've been searching for oh mr. Monet, but mr. Boynton is gone now You don't have to talk like that to me. Oh, I don't think of mr. Boynton. I think of you miss Brooks My share miss Brooks. I have something personal to talk to you about But right now I'm late for an appointment with mr. Conklin. Can you meet me someplace right after school? How about the Casbah?

From theCUBE Studios in Palo Alto in Boston, it's theCUBE, covering empowering the autonomous enterprise, brought to you by Oracle Consulting. Welcome back everybody to this special digital event coverage that theCUBE is looking into the rebirth of Oracle Consulting. Janet George is here, she's Group VP Autonomous for Advanced Analytics with Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence at Oracle, and she's joined by Grant Gibson, who's Group VP of Growth and Strategy at Oracle. Folks, welcome to theCUBE, thanks so much for coming on. Thank you. Grant, I want to start with you because you get strategy in your title. I'd like to start big picture. What is the strategy with Oracle, specifically as it relates to autonomous and also consulting? Sure, so I think Oracle has a deep legacy of strength and data. And over the company's successful history, it's evolved what that is from steps along the way. If you look at the modern enterprise, Oracle client, I think there's no denying that we've entered the age of AI, that everyone knows that artificial intelligence and machine learning are a key to their success in the business marketplace going forward. And while generally it's acknowledged that it's a transformative technology and people know that they need to take advantage of it, it's the how that's really tricky. And that most enterprises in order to really get an enterprise level ROI on an AI investment need to engage in projects of significant scope. And going from realizing there's an opportunity or realizing there's a threat to mobilizing yourself to capitalize on it is a daunting task for an enterprise. Certainly one that's, you know, anybody that's got any sort of legacy of success has built in processes, has built in systems, has built in skill sets and making that leap to be an autonomous enterprise is challenging for companies to wrap their heads around. So as part of the rebirth of Oracle Consulting, we've developed a practice around how to both manage the technology needs for that transformation as well as the human needs, as well as the data science needs to it. So wow, there's about five or six things that I want to follow up with you there. So this is going to be a good conversation. Janet, ever since I've been in the industry we were talking about AI, it sort of starts, stops, starts, stops. We had the AI winter, and now it seems to be here. It's almost feel like the technology never lived up to its promise. We didn't have the horsepower, the compute power, didn't have enough data maybe. So we're here today, it feels like we are entering a new era, why is that? And how will the technology perform this time? So for AI to perform, it's very reliant on the data. We entered the age of AI without having the right data for AI. So you can imagine that we just launched into AI without our data being ready to be training sex for AI. So we started with BI data, or we started with data that was already historically transformed. Formatted, had logical structures, physical structures. This data was sort of trapped in many different tools. And then suddenly AI comes along and we say, take this data, our historical data, we haven't tested to see if this has labels in it, if this has learning capability in it, we just thrust the data to AI. And that's why we saw the initial wave of AI sort of failing because it was not ready for AI, ready for the generation of AI if you will. And part of I think the leap that clients are finding success with now is getting novel data types. And you're moving from the zeros and ones of structured data to image, language, written language, spoken language. You're capturing different data sets in ways that prior tools never could. And so the classifications that come out of it, the insights that come out of it, the business process transformation comes out of it, is different than what we would have understood under the structured data format. So I think it's that combination of really being able to push massive amounts of data through a cloud product to be able to process it at scale. That is what I think is the combination that takes it to the next plateau for sure. The language that we use today I feel like is going to change. And you just started to touch on some of it. Sensing, there are senses and the visualization and the auditory. So it's sort of this new experience that customers are seeing. And there's machine intelligence behind that. I call it the autonomous enterprise, right? The journey to be the autonomous enterprise. And when you're on this journey to be the autonomous enterprise, you need really the platform that can help you be. Cloud is that platform which can help you get to the autonomous journey. But the autonomous journey does not end with the cloud, right? Or doesn't end with the data lake. These are just infrastructures that are basic, necessary, necessities for being on that autonomous journey. But at the end, it's about how do you train and scale at very large scale training that needs to happen on this platform for AI to be successful. And if you are an autonomous enterprise, then you have really figured out how to tap into AI and machine learning in a way that nobody else has to derive business value, if you will. So you've got the platform, you've got the data, and now you're actually tapping into the autonomous components, AI and machine learning to derive business intelligence and business value. So I want to get into a little bit of Oracle's role. But to do that, I want to talk a little bit more about the industry. So if you think about the way this, the industry seems to be restructuring around data, historically, industries had their own stack or value chain. And if you were in the finance industry, you were there for life. You know, so when you think about banking, for example, highly regulated industry, think about agriculture. These are highly regulated industries. It was very difficult to disrupt these industries. But now you look at an Amazon, right? And what does an Amazon or any other tech giant like Apple have? They have incredible amounts of data. They understand how people use or how they want to do banking. And so they've come up with Apple Cash or Amazon Pay. And these things are starting to eat into the market, right? So you would have never thought an Amazon could be a competition to a banking industry just because of regulations. But they are not hindered by the regulations because they're starting at a different level. And so they become an instant threat and an instant disruptor to these highly regulated industries. That's what data does, right? When you use data as your DNA for your business and you are sort of born in data or you figured out how to be autonomous, if you will, capture value from that data in a very significant manner, then you can get into industries that are not traditionally your own industry. It can be like the food industry, it can be the cloud industry, the book industry, you know, different industries. So, you know, that's what I see happening with the tech giants. So Grant, this is a really interesting point that Janet is making that you mentioned you started off with like a couple of industries that are highly regulated, the harder to disrupt, you know, music got disrupted, publishing got disrupted, but you've got these regulated businesses, you know, defense, automotive actually hasn't been truly disrupted yet. Some of Tesla maybe is a harbinger. And so you've got this spectrum of disruption, but is anybody safe from disruption? I don't think anyone's ever safe from it. It's changed in evolution, right? That you, whether it's, you know, swapping horseshoes for cars or TV for movies or Netflix or any sort of evolution of a business, I wouldn't coast on any of it. And I think to your earlier question around the value that we can help bring to Oracle customers is that, you know, we have a rich stack of applications and I find that the space between the applications, the data that spans more than one of them is a ripe playground for innovations where the data already exists inside a company, but it's trapped from both a technology and a business perspective. And that's where I think really any company can take advantage of knowing it's data better and changing itself to take advantage of what's already there. Yeah, it's powerful. People always throw the bromide up. The data is the new oil and we've said, no, the data is far more valuable because you can use it in a lot of different places. Oil you can use once and it's, it has to follow the laws of scarcity. If you can unlock it. And so a lot of the incumbents, they have built a business around whatever, a factory or, you know, process and people. A lot of the trillion dollar start in us that become trillionaires, you know, I'm talking about data's at the core, their data company. So it seems like a big challenge for your incumbent customers, clients, is to put data at the core, be able to break down those silos. How do they do that? Grading down silos is really super critical for any business. It was okay to operate in a silo. For example, you would think that, oh, you know, I could just be payroll and expense reports and it wouldn't matter if I get into vendor performance management or purchasing, that can operate as a silo. But anymore we are finding that there are tremendous insights between vendor performance management, I expense report, these things are all connected. So you can't afford to have your data sit in silos. So grading down that silo actually gives the business very good performance, right? Insights that they didn't have before. So that's one way to go. But another phenomena happens, when you start to grade down the silos, you start to recognize what data you don't have to take your business to the next level, right? That awareness will not happen when you're working with existing data. So that awareness comes into form when you grade the silos and you start to figure out you need to go after a different set of data to get you to new product creation. What would that look like? New test insights or new CAPEX avoidance. That data is just, you have to go through the iteration to be able to figure that out. Stakes is what you're saying. So this notion of the autonomous enterprise, it won't help me here because I get kind of autonomous and automation coming into IT, IT ops. I'm interested in how you see customers taking that beyond the technology organization into the enterprise. I think when AI is a technology problem, the company is at a loss. AI has to be a business problem. AI has to inform the business strategy. AI has to, when companies, the successful companies that have done, so 90% of our investments are going towards data. We know that and most of it going towards AI. There's data out there about this, right? And so we look at, what are these 90% of the company's investments? Where are these going and who is doing this right and who's not doing this right? One of the things we are seeing as results is that the companies that are doing it right have brought data into their business strategy. They've changed their business model, right? So it's not like making a better taxi, but coming up with Uber, right? So it's not like saying, okay, I'm going to have all these, I'm going to be the drug manufacturing company. I'm gonna put drugs out there in the market versus I'm going to do connected health, right? And so how does data serve the business model of being connected health rather than being a drug company selling drugs to my customers, right? It's a completely different way of looking at it. And so now AI is informing drug discovery. AI is not helping you just put more drugs to the market, rather it's helping you come up with new drugs that would help the process of connected care. There's a lot of discussion in the press about the ethics of AI and how far can we take it from a technology standpoint? There's a long roadmap there, but how far should we take it? Do you feel as though public policy will take care of that? A lot of that narrative is just kind of journalists looking for the negative story. Will that sort itself out? How much time do you spend with your customers talking about that? We in Oracle, we're building our data science platform with an explicit feature called explainability of the model on how the model came up with the features, what features it picked. We can rearrange the features that the model picked. So I think explainability is very important for ordinary people to trust AI because we can't trust AI. Even data scientists can't trust AI, right? To a large extent. So for us to get to that level where we can really trust what AI is picking in terms of a model, we need to have explainability. And I think a lot of the companies right now are starting to make that as part of their platform. Well, we're definitely entering a new era. The age of AI, the autonomous enterprise, folks. Thanks very much for a great segment. Really appreciate it. Yeah, a pleasure. Thank you for having us. You're welcome. Thank you for having us. All right, and thank you. And keep it right there. We'll be right back with our next guest right after this short break. You're watching theCUBE's coverage of the rebirth of Oracle Consulting. Right back.


Today I'm sharing no less than seven classy and chic French handbags with a review of the collection at Palais Paris. Now if you've followed my channel for a while you'll already know that I'm a huge fan of the Parisian brand Palais. I love the styles, the quality and of course the colour palette and I was a lot of requests from lovely subscribers, I thought it was about time I did a full review of their collection. I do feel very lucky to have worked with Palais a lot so I do already have a lovely selection of their handbags. However as I mentioned in my French women's chic look book that I did recently, if you've missed that one I will pop a link in the description box below. But there I mentioned that I've borrowed a selection of Palais Paris handbags so I could really give you a good idea of all the different styles and the colour palette that they're available in. Don't forget, everything I feature in today's video will be linked in the description box below along with a link for you to follow me on all my other social channels should you wish. So today I'll be talking you through their range pretty much in full. I have the very classy Numero Un, the Mini Un, the Nano, the incredibly chic Numero Set, both large and small, the new in Numero Deep Hobo, the Numero Wheat and the timeless French Chic Le Cabas. In fact I think I'm only missing the Numero Noof. However I have actually seen that in person too so I can give you my opinion on that one as well. Essentially if you've been debating purchasing one of their handbags, this video should give you the full rundown of everything you need to know. So let's start this review at the very beginning with the classy, timeless and best selling Numero Un. Now I have this myself in the monochrome black. This is the textured version and I've also borrowed it in the grey so I can show you this tone as a lovely alternative. Now I probably use this handbag the most out of all of my handbags and I would say that's mostly down to the size. It can fit just about everything I like to take around with me, which is quite a lot. So the Numero Un is a very feminine shape with all these lovely gentle curves and I do find it a really classy addition to all my outfits. It just suddenly makes me feel more elevated. I could be wearing the most laid back outfit I have but when I add this handbag into the mix I suddenly feel more polished in a very French chic kind of fashion. Now the leather like I mentioned is textured calf grain leather which I think adds to the luxe feeling of the bag and you have these little poppers that retain the shape of that curve. But it also gives you the option to open it out bigger should you need more space. Inside you have a zipped pocket as well as two flat pockets and though not big enough for a laptop you can really get a lot of stuff in here. In fact that's probably a good idea. Let's see how many things I can get into each of these handbags so you can really get a good idea of just how big they are. Okay let's have a look. First my phone, put my lipstick and the zip pocket and get to that easy. I will be ambitious and try the entire makeup bag. Hand cream? Yeah. No, there's loads of room in there. So yes, there's lots of space in there if like me you are a bit of a hoarder when it comes to filling up your handbags and as you can see doing it up with all of that stuff in it, although it's a bit heavy it hasn't lost its shape at all. Strap wise I tend to wear it probably in four different ways depending on my outfit. Bookshave my arm, you could use the strap over your shoulder and then of course there is enough room there to go crossbody as well. So it's an elegant classy and very timeless design that's got lots of space and it's beautiful quality of course. It actually feels like it should cost a lot more than it does. Let's take a look now to the newest super chic addition to the Palin handbag collection the numero di hobo. Now this style is available in both a smaller half moon shape and the larger one which is called the hobo that I've borrowed to share with you in this review. Both styles have been inspired by the equestrian world of Savory which now I know I can see that through the detailing across the front here. It's got a curved strap, foam padding and the strap is actually adjustable but I must say I actually prefer leaving it quite short like this so I can wear it over my shoulder. You could however wear it crossbody and long on the shoulder as well if you wanted. Palin Paris very kindly offered if I would like to choose a bag from their collection and I actually went for this one in the chalk. I just think it's very classy and chic especially when I'm trying to channel my inner French woman style I thought this handbag would work perfectly. Now the di hobo is actually quite a structured bag, more structured than you would think it is and that's something I tend to warm to particularly as I know it really elevates your outfits. This one seems a little bit like the numero set it doesn't feel like it's going to lose its shape anytime soon. So taking a look inside let's see how much we can really get in here. It's not very wide at the bottom but obviously it's quite long so I think we're going to get quite a bit in there. Let's do a bit of a stuff test. Foam is going to fit easy, purse, let's go for hand cream, no. I think I might ruin the shape if I try to put my entire makeup bag in there. So different to the numero in you've got a flat pocket inside this one rather than a zip and I think the inside of that is suede it feels really lovely and soft. I've not overstuffed the bag but I've definitely got all my essentials in there that I like to take around with me and as you can see we've not lost that beautiful classy and timeless shape. I love this bag, I am very very excited for mine to arrive. People often ask me which is your favourite Palais Paris handbag that you've got but it's a really hard decision to make because they all seem to offer something different for lots of different occasions. Which is kind of where my head's at when I saw the numero in mini in person. I fall in in love with this one too, I absolutely love it. In fact doing this video is probably really dangerous for me because I want them all. Smaller than the classic numero in but larger than the nano, the mini strikes the perfect balance for me. With those gentle folds and subtle hardware it's just the epitome of French chic. It's simple, it's understated and so timeless you would literally have it for years. And if we're keeping points on versatility I think this particular style would work perfectly both for day and for night. I think the shade of grey they've used is just stunning, the quality is impeccable. The gold hardware stands out but it's really subtle and elegant which then in turn feels really effortless. This is just my cup of tea. So if I open the clasp here like it's big sister it's got the folds here with the poppers so you can open those out if you want a little bit more space. And as you can see there for a small handbag that's got quite a lot of room. So I think to get this sized person there I'm going to need those poppers open. Let's see if I can get that in. No, it's a little bit too torn. Can we go sideways? You know it's a little bit tight width wise getting that person but I can just about do it and I could probably close those folds as well. I would just be nervous but I'm going to ruin the shape a little bit because I can kind of feel the purse really pulling on that leather there. Now because I love the bag so much I probably wouldn't risk it with that particular purse and use something different that's just a tiny bit smaller on the width or maybe just take my cards out. So probably a no on that purse. Obviously I can get my phone in there and you can get some makeup in there. I could get my hairbrush in there as well just about an angle. So in all honesty you are going to have to adapt what you put in there maybe use a slightly smaller purse but I personally don't mind at all because I just love the handbag so much. Now like I mentioned I was going to order the numero D hobo in chalk but now seeing this one in person I've kind of lost my heart to it. So do let me know in the comment section which would you choose?  I would be very grateful for all your thoughts in the comment section below. Let's go to the number eight handbag now as it's very different start to the classic number one. What I love about this handbag is that it's essentially a timeless bucket bag but with a really original up-to-date twist. It's such a different shape. I've never seen anything even similar. So that would definitely be plus number one for me that it's a beautiful statement piece that I haven't seen before. The second thing I love about this French handbag has to be the quality.  Made from fully grained calf leather again with suede leather lining like their entire collection it looks and feels far more expensive than it actually is. Now if I open it out here you can see those folds are actually separate panels all sewn together around the circle. If I pull that there that's the circle width that you've got to play with and it's quite long too so I'm thinking we should be able to get quite a lot in there. So on that note let's just have a little look. We've got a purse, yep stuff and hairbrush down the side, a bit of hand cream, phone and then no don't want to ruin it. I've probably just a few pieces of makeup. Yeah I can get all of that in. The other thing that's interesting is the shade of blush pink that they've used and this is something that we often see across the high street and with the big name designers but I don't think a lot of people get it completely right sometimes it feels a little bit acrid pink or a bit too peachy or a bit too wishy-washy it's quite a hard one to get right actually but I would say Palin have got it spot on. It's that lovely subtle classy pink tone. It feels really elegant in fact especially if you like neutrals like I do I think this kind of tone is going to integrate beautifully into all your different outfit ideas. I mentioned earlier the numerosec which I do have in my collection. This one has actually retained its shape beautifully this doesn't look any different from the day I received it which was about a year ago I think. So I went for this in the two-tone smooth camel leather which suits me and my wardrobe perfectly but I was eager to have a look at it in the mini version so I borrowed that from Palin Paris in the textured camel leather to see the difference. Now the first thing that strikes me is how different the camel tone looks depending on whether you go for the smooth leather or the textured leather. Now if I'm honest I think I prefer the camel palette better in the smooth rather than the grained. That's not a criticism it's just personal taste really and what I think would work best in my own wardrobe. A bit like the number 10 handbag it's not going to lose its shape. I can't even push that out of shape which is a good sign. I love the gold hardware against camel definitely a favorite color combination for me and the nice difference with the mini set is of course that you have the chain strap. That gives you the option to wear it in lots of different ways and of course add an extra sprinkle of gold into your outfits. So let's have a look how much we can squeeze into this very chic mini French handbag. So that's the room inside you've got to play with so obviously it's not going to fit that big purse, a hairbrush it's not going to go in there and neither is the moisturizer.  So you might have noticed that I got the number one in camel recently and it's definitely been getting lots of wear in all my alpha ideas. So I decided to borrow in chalk to see how that changes the whole feel of the bag and in actual fact I think it really does. You might have seen I've been styling lots of dresses recently in my videos. If you missed them I shall link it in the description box below but this bag seems to work particularly well with those very feminine summer dresses and as you probably gathered in that video I kept wanting to reach for this bag to pair with them. It's just the perfect elegant feminine timeless touch for when you're wearing a floaty summer dress and maybe you don't want to have a big bulky bag to go with it. The best way I could describe this bag is small but perfectly formed. It's got Pelene's best selling shape at its core but obviously as a small version it gives you the versatility to wear it in more ways and there's something so effortless about this handbag very French I guess. Size wise it's quite surprising if I open those poppers at the front here I can just about get my purse and my phone width ways in there and I can manage to do those poppers back up again. I don't need to take that giant purse around with me it's just a bit of a habit but as you can see it's not lost any of that beautiful shape by putting it in there. I like the fact that you've got the studs underneath which is a running theme with all of their handbags actually I should point out their branding is very subtle very elegant and effortless and this one again you've got a nice long strap so you can wear that crossbody over your shoulder or of course you could hold it just from the handle there. I do love this little bag you can't obviously squeeze an awful lot in there but that's not really what it's been designed for.  The Le Cabos or tote bag has quickly become a bestseller on Pelene Paris' website and I can absolutely see why. Like the entire collection the thought, care, craftsmanship and individuality that's gone into designing this collection really stands out head and shoulders above the rest. A bit like the numero eight bucket bag I don't think I've ever seen such an original forward thinking design for the simple tote bag and I for one am very grateful to have it in my collection. Obviously one of the main pulls with the tote bag is the sheer size of it. I can even get my laptop in here with room for my makeup bag purse and all my other bits and bobs I take around with me but these classy and chic fold details just make it feel so luxurious and yet it's a really practical bag at the same time. It's not as structured as say the seven or the ten. So as you can see the leather straps here they drape over themselves a little bit when it's standing on its own but equally I don't think the main of the bag is going to become any more slouchy than this. I really love the Le Cabos I think it's practical it's stylish it's very wearable and the color palette they've used is just beautiful. I don't have the number nine Palin Paris handbag with me but I have seen that before when I've borrowed it previously for another video so let me just quickly tell you a little bit about the pros and cons of that one but there's definitely more room than say the mini or the nano again it's got those really elegant deep folds and the base of the handbag is actually quite large so I'm imagining you could get quite a few items in there. So if you do like that design I think it's a very practical handbag for everyday wear and of course it's got the bonus of that sprinkle of effortless French chic about it as well. I really hope you've enjoyed this classy and chic French handbag review with the collection Palin Paris. They are investment pieces but if there's one area I'm always happy to invest in it would be on my handbags especially when I find a brand with such high quality and their prices are a fraction of their competitors. Do let me know your thoughts in the comment section below and if you've got a favourite between the 10 and the mini do let me know as well. I shall be back next week with a very exciting haul so hopefully you'll join me for that I can't wait to share those pieces with you. Don't forget if you like this video and you're not already subscribed really lovely if you'd like to and also all the links to all my social media channels are in the description box below. Have a wonderful week and hopefully I shall see you next Sunday. Take care.


The Atoms Family started out as a satirical comic strip way back in the 1930s before it became a hit TV series in 1964. It got the dreaded reboot in 1991 with a feature film, it turned out though that the movie was actually funny and still holds up well today. It spawned a sequel, Atoms Family Values, and a Saturday morning animated series. Each of these projects produced a Super Nintendo game each developed by Ocean Software. You start with the Atoms Family, released in 1992, where the family's lawyer has taken control of the Atoms household and it's up to Gomez to run around each room of the mansion and free all the different family members. For the gameplay, uh, yep, it's a platformer. It's the platformiest platformer ever to platform on a platform in platform land.  It's honestly hard to come up with anything to say about the gameplay here because it's pretty bland. It's not bad at all, it's just that nothing really stands out as unique from other games. The hit detection is not forgiving either, so there's plenty of instances where you jump on an enemy and you end up taking damage instead. So this game is pretty hard. The enemy patterns here too can be maddening. I will give the Atoms Family credit for having some hidden areas to explore and for providing an open edit format for the player to approach the game in different ways. It's just the gameplay itself is so bland and the difficulty doesn't help either. So yeah, the first Atoms Family game isn't bad, but it isn't worth going out of your way to play. If you want a basic platformer there's always stuff like Ploch or Artie Lightfoot or you know Kirby or Mario or Tonkicon Country or a million other platformers. Things get a little better with the Atoms Family, Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt. This game is based off the cartoon series so the visual style reflects that and it looks great. Again this is a platformer like the first game and it's structured in a similar way where you start out in this room and you can pick whatever level you want to play. The big problem with Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt as you'll find out right away is that this game is ridiculously hard, I mean like borderline impossible. You know how in games like Sparxter or Twinbee Rainbow Bell Adventure or Sky Blazer you're overpowered to the gills with all sorts of methods to destroy enemies and avoid obstacles. This game is the opposite.  Even in the stage select area you've got these burlap sacks trying to kill you. Come on man! Another annoying thing is this screeching sound that happens every time you change direction. It actually gets old quick. Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt does have its strengths, the graphics and music stand out really well and there's some clever puzzles here too. But this game is just way too hard to get into, especially with no way to save and no passwords. Screw that. Last there's Adam's Family Values, based of course on the Adam's Family movie sequel. This time around it's a top-down adventure style game. You play as Uncle Fester and yeah, I can probably guess that some of you have some repressed trauma from Fester's Quest on NES that's bubbling to the surface right now, but thankfully this game is much better than that. Fester has to find Baby Pubert who is kidnapped and you get plenty of help from other family members who give you clues and items throughout the game. In addition to the usual adventure style gameplay here, there's some RPG-ish elements as well, like being able to upgrade your attack and your equipment and you level up, so to speak, by being able to take more damage as you progress through the game. The more damage you take, the weaker and shorter your lightning attack is, so you can't just hack and slash your way through the game. The problem with this game, again, is that there's no battery save, only passwords, and the only way to get a password is to find Cousin It, and you usually have to backtrack to a certain area to find him. It's pretty annoying. Overall though, Adam's Family Values is a pretty good game. The best of the three Adam's Family games, it's not the most intuitive as it can be tough to determine where you're supposed to go or where you can go or what you're supposed to do, but between the top-down action and the puzzle solving and the very good soundtrack, this game has quite a bit to offer. All right, that's it for now. Thanks for watching and have a great rest of your day.


Patrick Peterson on the All Things Covered podcast yesterday about Kyler Murd. You think Cliff Kingsbury may be the scapegoat in regards to their struggles? They ain't no maybe, he will. He will be. Kyler Murd don't care about nobody, but Kyler Murd. That's just a matter of the fact. Well, yeah, well. I got it. It's no big fact. Oh, well, well. I can't, I can't argue with you. You play with him first. Well, well, well, well, well. You said something very real right there. I don't know him. This is going to be heard by a lot of people. I think then Kyler Murd quote tweeted this and said, this isn't true.  You got my number. If you really felt like this as a big bro or a mentor, you're supposed to call me and tell me. Not drag me so your podcast can grow.


Thanks for joining us for another episode of The Nonprofit Show. I'm Julia Patrick joined today by Jack Nacho Alotto, CFRE, one of the rock star trainers with Fundraising Academy. Fundraising Academy is super generous. They give us one of their talents every Friday to go over questions that come in throughout the world with people talking about the nonprofit sector, the ecosystem of it, problems they might be having. Sometimes it's a head shaker. Sometimes we don't agree on the answer. Sometimes as Jack said, you know, we might not have the right answer and that's okay. So we want to welcome you. We also want to welcome all of our sponsors once again, everyone from Bloomerang, American Nonprofit Academy, your part-time controller, be generous, Fundraising Academy at National University, Staffing Boutique, Nonprofit Thought Leader, and Nonprofit Nerd. If you would like to get to any of our archives, you can find us on Roku, YouTube, Amazon Fire TV, and Vimeo. You can also listen to us on podcasts wherever you like to stream your content. This is something that our intrepid executive producer Kevin Pace started for us this year. It's really fun and super exciting. So again, we can accompany you wherever you may be on podcast format. Okay, Jackalotto, I'm super excited to have you because I always am so intrigued by the things that you say and the things that you answer. Let's get going. Devin from Atlanta, Georgia writes in, While we did our 2023 strategic plan with goals back in October, good job starting early, we did not really create a method for tracking them with the board. Do you have any suggestions? Yeah, my first suggestion is your strategic plan is incomplete. Without a tracking mechanism, there's no accountability, there's no timeline, there's no who's responsible for what. So I would pull that strategic plan out and complete it. Accountability, when you start tracking your goals, am I achieving my programmatic goals or my fundraising goals, whatever, that brings accountability. And accountability is one of the most important things we do as fundraisers, as nonprofit leaders. So you got to pull that back out and take a look at that and add that tracking mechanism, that accountability mechanism to that strategic plan.  And I love, Jack, what you said that accountability in measurements needs to be a part of a strategic plan. And goals in a strategic plan are two different, they go together, but they're two very different things. I've been on boards where, and you specifically write, create a method for tracking them with the board. If you have a board portal, this is really easy because that can always be front and center. It can even be on a dashboard. So every time your board members go in to that portal, they'll see it. But back in the day, I mean, I've been on many boards where they started every meeting with a giant like 11 by 17 printoff of what, you know, the metrics were and passed it around for everyone to see and to report on and to understand with a strategic champion. You know, from the board that's not shaming anyone necessarily. That technique, I, you know, what that example you just gave, Julie, is perfect because then it creates a culture of accountability. Yeah. And that's really important for nonprofit organizations. The accountability is not just for staff or fundraisers or social workers who are working in programs. It's everyone, including the board. Yeah, I agree. And, and I think sometimes what happens is, you know, the board does this heavy lift and then they walk away and they're like, Oh yeah, that's right. And at the end of the year, it's like, we did it or we didn't. And yet the staff is having to deal with this every day. Hopefully they're working in concert on this as well. Right.  When your board is involved and say, Hey, well, maybe we should pivot here or do this or the ideas that collective cauldron of ideas may help you really start to really get on track again. Right. Right. And I think, you know, we all can agree that when you have a goal or when you have the strategic plan, it just makes for better management, better systems. It's tough, and it can be hard and frustrating. But shoot, if you don't know where you're going, you're just going everywhere, right? That's right. That's strategic plans, fundraising plans, any plans whatsoever. That's a tool of management. You manage your organization based on those plans. And when you're not meeting those plans, that's that tracking part of the question that Devin asked us. Yeah. Devin from Atlanta, Georgia, I hope this helped you because I think you're like what Jack said, you're there, but you need to go back because you're not quite there, there, right? So good luck to you, my friend. Hey, Sammy from Ithaca, New York. It just makes me feel cold to say Ithaca, New York. Cornell, Cornell. Cold Cornell. Yes. Sammy writes, we're seeing more board members joining a lot of other boards. This is an interesting question. Do you think there should be a limit? Of course, we would start this policy in 2024 to make sure everyone is aware of this in advance. I got to say, I work with an organization in my community. It's a chapter of a very large organization and they do not allow their senior, like their board chair and their board chair elect. And I think like one other, I can't remember who it is, one other job description to be on any other executive committees or higher level boards during their tenure. Yeah, I've heard this. I think the key here is to have board members sign a confidentiality agreement. Yeah. Maybe you're a board junkie and you have to be on the ballet, the opera, St. Vincent Paul, Jewish community and family service. You want to be on all of them because you really care about your community. Here's the thing. When you sign that confidentiality agreement, you cannot share donor information from one organization to another. You cannot say, hey, I'm on the board of the ballet and I just see that Julia Patrick gave us $10,000. Maybe you should be asking Julia Patrick for $10,000. That's a no-no. And a confidentiality agreement must be signed. Here's the other thing, to protect our clients. I've served on boards of organizations that are working with marginalized communities. I had to sign a confidentiality agreement that I would not share the names of individuals who are benefiting from services or clients of the organization. It's just not good to do that. Right. To me, Sammy, Jack, what you just said is really magical because it kind of goes back to board policies, but also board education and just letting people know this is a practice that we assume this is a standard that we maintain. And yeah, we need to kind of be thoughtful about that because it's a tough thing. And I'm all for understanding what those policies and measurements are. I mean, if you worked in the for-profit world, you would know that if, let's say, for example, your company is doing research or product development, you can't share that. Right. And that's kind of what's going on in the nonprofit sector. Right. Yeah. I think we need to be- And you know the other problem that happens when somebody serves on a lot of boards, they're going to go to board A and they're going to come back to you and say, you know, I'm on the board of the ballet and we have this fabulous thing that we're doing. And I think we should do it here. Sometimes that's a good thing, but sometimes that's a bad thing. You know, there's not always that crossover between the good policies or procedures at one organization to another doesn't always transfer. So your staff is going to- Sammy, is going to be dealing with those good ideas, the good idea that we found out on XYZ board. Right. Yeah. It's an interesting thing. I think one of the things that we're seeing is we're seeing people age off of boards. We're trying to build more board diversity. So I mean, there's an opportunity here to get new voices and new types of people. And at the same time, we have a shrinking pool. And so I think it's not, it's something we're going to be seeing more and more of people being on multiple boards because we just haven't been able to cultivate or we haven't thoughtfully cultivated this next gen leadership of board leadership. So it's kind of like one of those dicey times that you kind of need to understand. Devin, or excuse me, Sammy, before we move on to our next question.  The thing about any policy you make for the board, whether it's this one or anything else, you have to give the rationale why you're doing it. And when you give that rationale, you're going to define the parameters of why you have this policy. And maybe you don't need the policy, just define the parameters. These are our expectations. Maybe it should be in your board job descriptions, whatever that is. So there are lots of ways around this without having a strict policy of you cannot serve on any other boards. Yeah. Yeah. I love you. I love that idea too. Putting it in your guidelines and maybe not your policies. Yeah, that's a cool, that's a cool idea. Okay, Sammy, I hope this helped you and I hope you warm up. Richard from Houston, Texas writes in, we're trying to recruit higher new talent into our development team. It has been suggested that we offer to pay for CFRE accreditation as an incentive. Do you think this is a perilous idea? Oh, I think it's a great idea. And you know, Julian, last week, one of the things we talked about looking towards 2023, one of the big issues you talked about was staff retention. Yeah. You want to retain your staff? It's not only just the CFRE, it's giving them the time to come every day at 9 a.m. Pacific time to the nonprofit show. It's enrolling them in the fundraising academy. It's letting them watch webinars. It's paying for their CFRE application. Staff development is a key to retention, just keeping staff. You want to keep them, then give them professional development. So, Jack, what would it be, what would be the approximate cost for a nonprofit to do this? Because it sounds to me like, when Richard writes, is this a perilous idea? He's thinking, wow, we're going to take people, pay for this, and then they're going to go somewhere else. You don't have to pay the entire application cost. And I am for sharing it, giving them some buy-in. When they have to pay for part of it, then it becomes more that they want to succeed. They have some skin in the game, a dog in the fight, whatever metaphor you want to use. So, I really do think it's important for organizations to say, we're going to support your application for CFRE. And if you're not an AFP member or another organization, it's like $800. Maybe say, we're going to give you $500 towards that. We're going to help you pay for some of the materials that you need for success. The same thing goes for the fundraising academy, whatever the cost is. The other thing is, remember, there are so many free things that you can access around professional development. I'm going to go back to mylearningportal.org at the Fundraising Academy. It's free. You can access blogs and webinars, all kinds of things there. And we're not the only ones doing this. Many of your other sponsors do the same thing. You know, I liked what you said, and I hadn't ever thought of this, but allowing time. Because sometimes it's not just the cost of a registration or ticket or whatever, but it's time. It's saying it's okay.  You know, it's an investment. Richard, yeah, I think this is something you really need to look into, because it's a heck of a lot easier to keep somebody and nurture somebody along and then going back out into the marketplace and starting all that. Costs a lot of money to hire new staff. You know, there's a lot of investment. You've got to train them. They've got to bring them up to speed. Try to keep the ones you have. They work for you. They convince people. Yeah, absolutely. Well, Richard, I hope this really helps you and good luck and let us know. And if you're a part of an organization that's doing this, I think that'd be really cool. I'd love to know more and more about that. Okay, fun development committee from New Orleans, Louisiana. This is great. We asked a question last week and are back for more. They're right. This is an odd question. But do you think we should actively search for younger fundraisers in order to work better with younger donors? No one's ever asked this question.  Okay, so you hire younger, let's say millennia to work with millennials. Do you hire men to work with men? Do you hire white people to work with white people? Where do you go with this? You know, how does it end? I guess I don't like the rationale. And I'm not sure what the rationale is because the question doesn't say, but it kind of says that, you know, younger people can relate better to younger people. I got to tell you a story. Many years ago, I sat in a group of people and we were talking about what a donor looks like. And one of the members of the committee said, well, men make all the gifts, men, which is totally not true. And I said, that's not true. Women are the biggest philanthropists in this country. And you know what he said to me? But men write the checks. And after the meeting, I said to myself, I'm never working with that person again. And I think I told my supervisor, I can't be in. And I never did.  Rather than ask this question, do you know what I would like you to ask? What makes a great fundraiser? Yeah. And it's integrity. It's authenticity. It's the ability to develop a relationship. It's having values. It's focused on your mission, your vision and your values. It's not your age. It's not your gender.  You know, I just immediately was like, well, hell, yeah, I didn't even think of all those things that you just said. I, wow, okay. I really appreciate what you said, Jack. And I think you're right, because your first, your first phrase is, well, where does it start and where does it end? Yeah, very, I don't know where it ends. What's down that road? When the logic tells you that only millennials could work with millennials, where does that take your thinking? You know, okay, I really, really, you've given me something to think about. I really appreciate this. And let me tell you, Julie, as a baby boomer, I'll talk to anybody. Well, you know, it seems to me that maybe the question is to, or the answer is to look more at like your marketing and communications and understanding what these different demographics are interested in, you know, that whole know thy donor concept, like understanding what the donors want, maybe that's, maybe that's the core of what an answer should be. Yeah. How about this, Julie? We talked about sometimes donor centricity is not the key. You know, I think that we've doctrinated ourselves about donor, donor, donor. So we want to find fundraisers who relate to the donors on an age level. You know, it's not always the way it should be. Look for the characteristics in that fundraiser. When you're hiring somebody, look at those characteristics, which you and I have outlined. You know, authenticity, honesty, integrity, attention to values, having their own personal values, attention to the mission of the organization. These to me are so much more important than anything else. Well, and you know, Jack, it goes back to how we started this conversation today in the green room chatter about the ethics of, you know, fundraising, working with donors, not always doing exactly what that donor wants or is lobbying for, or dare I say, pressuring us to do, if it's not right and if it doesn't meet with our own ethics and our own, you know, morality, moral view of the world, for good or for bad, whatever it is, having the strength of character to be able to walk away from that. It's a really interesting conversation and one that we don't have enough. But this question, interestingly enough, ties into that bigger picture thought. You have to, I think the question comes from a desire to be donor centric. It's at the bottom of donor dominance, you know, all of those things that were our question that you and I spent 15 minutes discussing earlier, you know, and how we've got to that power that we're giving them to even decide the age group of our fundraisers is not a good idea, guys. It's not good. We have to bring some of the values that we have to them. They want to be a part of our organization. Let's share our values and equity and diversity and inclusion are our values. Let's bring it to them. Yeah. Very interesting. I mean, just off the top of my head, like I said, when I saw that question, I was like, well, yeah, but I really appreciate the lens that you've given me today. I would say that, Jackalotto, you bring me a different lens every day. It is really always a pleasure to see you come up on our booking schedule. I will admit to a lot of times I schedule myself in to be with you because I love being with you. You're my gal pal over soon. I love it. Well, you always teach me something new and you're fun and you give me a different perspective. And that would certainly was born out today. Jackalotto CFRE Trainer Fundraising Academy. Jack, before we let you go, this is the time of the year when you are doing CFRE training cohorts. Is that right? Yes. January 14th is the first day of our study group. They could message me at jalotto.edu or just find me on LinkedIn and I'll add you to the group. It's free. It's a wonderful group. I have 102 people, but I've had more than that. And it's a great way, professional development. Even if you're not seeking a CFRE, you're going to learn a lot. Okay. So really quickly, what does this look like? How do you operate this? It's via Zoom and we are going to review those six CFRE domains starting with prospect research and ending with ethics and accountability. Wow. Okay. And how long is that? So it's a three hour. It's four Saturdays for three hours. And you know what I love most about this? It's sort of like this community at the nonprofit show. We form a community. That's what we have. And we see the same people come all, you know, for those four Saturdays and they bond even beyond that. Awesome. Okay, cool. Well, I'm glad. I'm glad I remembered it that this was coming up because I was thinking, wait a minute, I think it's like a new year kind of thing. Then the exam is given when? So that participants pick when they take the exam. And they have a 12 month do it. I always say I like for them to pick just February 4th is our last do it in February while the material is still fresh in your head. Okay. And really important. Awesome. Okay, great. Well, that sounds like a wonderful thing. And so check out Jack Alotto and his training group for his study group for the CFRE. We talk a lot about continuing education and we talk a lot about, you know, certification and the professionalism within our sector. And I think that's something really, really valuable to take a look at. Hey, everybody, we want to make sure we end this episode thanking our sponsors who allow these conversations to go on Blumerang American nonprofit Academy, your part time controller, be generous fundraising Academy at National University, staffing boutique, nonprofit thought leader and the nonprofit nerd. Again, we would not be here without these folks. Hey, Jack Nacho Alotto, I'm going to queue up one of my favorite all time movies. And that is Nacho Libre. It's a comedy Jack Black, but it's all about fundraising. And yeah, I have to watch that this weekend in honor of you. Thank you so much, Jack, for being here. Thank you, everybody. Happy New Year. Happy New Year. Absolutely. Hey, everybody, as we end every episode, we want to remind ourselves, our viewers, our listeners, our sponsors, our guests to stay well so you can do well. Have a safe and great weekend. We'll see you back here.
