The exact source of the COVID-19 coronavirus which has much of the world under lockdown isn't entirely known. The culprit has been named as one of China's infamous wet markets.  And I think we need to condemn these from the rooftops at every opportunity from now on because threats of shouting racist at me isn't going to work. The world has awoken to these and the world has awoken to China and to the nature of the Chinese government. And the Chinese government is not pleasant. This is the stuff of nightmares. The Communist Party of China covered this up. It could have stopped this. It could have acted. It suppressed medical people. It punished those who spoke out. And indeed I read today that a doctor who spoke out early has disappeared. The Chinese state is not a pleasant thing. And their manufacturing dominance, their manufacturing dominance must be challenged and brought to an end. It seems like every second product you see is made in China. And meanwhile manufacturing has completely disappeared from the UK. Let's bring it back. We have far too much dependency on China and when this crisis is over and it will be soon, we need new thinking, new attitudes and new approaches to China. First of all, as I said, priority number one, we need legislative policy to bring manufacturing home. Second thing we need to do is speak openly and honestly about the cruelty of the Chinese state. That's cruelty to human beings and indeed to animals. It's suppression. It's oppression. Of course we don't expect the United Nations to say anything about it. It's too busy defending any criticisms of China and batting them away as if they signify hate and racism. It will rubbish. I am personally going to make an effort now not to buy anything from China. And I'd ask other people to do the same. I know that won't be easy because so much, so much, including healthcare products, so much of it are being produced in China. And China's making quite a handsome penny out of this coronavirus panic as well. It is really quite a kick in the gut. But regardless of where this disease came from, whether it came from the wet market or not, and I'm going to link you below to a video from Tucker Carlson. In it he mentions a paper, a scientific paper from a Chinese university which suggested that the virus had actually come from a research facility in Wuhan and not from a wet market. There's no suggestion that this is deliberate but that it escaped from a research facility. This paper has since disappeared. We know that the Chinese state is still silencing people. And we also know that these notorious wet markets are back in action, back to normal. Nothing at all has changed. They're still selling bats which is believed to be the intermediate for this virus. Still have dogs and cats in horrific cages. But whether or not, whether or not this came from a wet market or a research facility, it's time to start looking at China, looking at this government, looking at who they are and what they do and what their influence is on the world. I'm worried about their influence on the world. I don't particularly like how the Chinese state operates and I don't particularly want to see it dominating the world. Its manufacturing has got therefore to be pushed back and we can all make an extra effort with this. We can all look out for products that are not from China. Better yet look out for products that are from Britain. But speaking of which, I link below to our shop, the Four Britain Shop, fantastic new range of products in and you'll find that none of them are made in China. Do have a look by British. Support ourselves. Let's campaign and work towards policy that brings manufacturing back to Britain. And let's, for the sake of decency, let's condemn the actions of the Chinese government and let's ourselves make our small little, make our small contribution to pushing back their manufacturing dominance by boycotting China.

You're welcome back to the breakfast on PlotsTV Africa. Let's talk 2023 elections and all the process that would make it work. The Invented National Electoral Commission, INEC, has announced that pre-registration exercise is complete and of course they are in the process of making sure that everything necessary for the 2023 elections is put in place. They announced that they have registered over 1 million voters in that exercise that ended the 21st of September 2021. Let's now invite our guest, the political activist Abiodu Oluwashio. Good morning. Thank you for joining us. Good morning, Magritte. So just before you go on, I just wanted to quickly chip in. INEC has mentioned that the first stage of registration has been concluded. There's going to be an exit. It's not complete, like Maneta said. It's from the 28th of June to the 21st of September was the first stage. The next stage starts from the 4th of October to the 20th of December. So just to chip that in. Good morning once again, Mr Oluwashio. Good morning. All right. They registered over 1 million voters this period that ended September 21st. And there's been, you know, lots of talk about Nigerian youth going ahead to vote and taking it off Twitter into the polling unit and all of that. Now, 1 million people and counting. Do you think, you know, the youth did well to have voted as much as 1 million? Or do you think they could have done a lot? And if you think that, you know, the numbers could have been higher, would you say that's the faults of the youth who didn't turn up as much as they should have or maybe the fact that INEC didn't do a lot of sensitization regarding the election process? Thank you very much. Regarding the numbers, the 1 million, it's 1,947 people. The number from the INEC as regards the first stage of registration. The youth are 771,770, which is 77% of the total registered, the total number of the people who are done with the first stage. If we look at it critically, we'll notice that even during this period, a whole lot of youth were not carried along. Just only if you look at the total number of youths in Nigeria, if INEC did proper sensitization and a lot of publicity, a lot of awareness, voter registration and enlightenment and all, probably the number might have been higher. And as well, there was a time they suspended it in between. They were having issues with the deeds that they were given to people. So that also affected this number. I think they could have done better, but this is the first time. So the numbers are coming up and I believe probably when there is another opening like this, the numbers might do very, very well. What do you think our target should be considering Nigeria's youth population? If we have only 700,000 plus, and that regards the complete registration now, there's still a backlog of more than 2 million that very likely will add to this number if you're looking at the pre-registerance and then the completed registrations. But what do you think our target should be? There's only going to be four different sessions of this registration. And that means if we look at these figures, then we probably wouldn't have more than 2.4 million, maybe 2.8 million completed online registrations by the time the elections are set. Do you think that's also very poor? And what should our target be heading to the 2023 elections considering our youth population? Let's not forget that there is still going to be physical registration. So some of the youth that were not captured now might also be captured during the physical registration. But looking at the tech way, the internet way that we have these days, you notice that we can easily reach the youth through sponsored ads on Instagram, sponsored ads on Twitter, Facebook and all. But because some of these social media giants are not active in Nigeria because of the ban on all, these are some of the issues that are affecting this number. If they did a proper, let's say, the way BBE Niger does their promotion, their adverts, trends and all, use influencers, use everybody to make sure this, to push the numbers. If we can have that for the INEC registration, I believe the numbers we are having now will be maybe a pint, a little pint out of what we'll be expecting. So probably if we have a big awareness from DSTV to radio stations, to newspapers, to all these big social media platforms, I am sure we'll have a very huge number. But I still believe that since we still have some of these youths to be captured through the physical registration, the numbers might still improve. But if you look at the numbers of people registered for jams, numbers of people registered for all these talks online, there is high possibility that if we continue this way, the numbers might increase the subsequent registrations. So why would you think that the sensitization for these pre-registration exercises was not as it should be, seeing that it's now an online process? Why do you think that it was not in our faces? Did you scroll through Instagram one of these days and you saw an advert asking you to vote and giving directions to do that? Lots of Nigerian youth would say they didn't see anything like that. And in that case, is there any reason why we can justify it? Actually, the justification for it might be from INEC. I don't know the justification for it. But as a youth, during this period, I've never checked through Instagram except for maybe some organizations or NGO who are calling people out, are calling the youths that they should come out and do their registration. Someone like myself, I did some online awareness to make sure people from, people who are closer to me register for their voters card. But let's say our higher institutions, let's say we engage the student union president, I will go to secondary school and engage the students. When we really go out to do that, we'll make it easier for people to register from the grassroots. Some people as well might not even hear of this online registration at all during this period. They might not if we cannot rule it out. So if we are to do that, just like the national population census, that some people will not be captured, but during registration, what they do is they go house to house to go and meet people so as to register them. So if we can also do that, it is something possible that INEC will have, just like the way they do it before, that they will have people at the place then you go there to go and register the physical registration. Then you can just use some youths to do the feed work for you. So they just go around house to house with the, probably, carry along the town criers of each street. Just where the Landlord Association, the Community Development Association and all. Once they carry them along, they pass this message to those people. These ones are the ones that will pass it across to the people from the grassroots. From there as well. From there we can get a lot of youth. You know, some just have the phone. Some just have their probably small phone. They are not connected to the internet. Why some are even connected to the internet and don't even know of this project. Why some, they know of this project, but probably during at the stage or the other, they find the process ambiguous and they left it. So we cannot rule out all these things from affecting this figure. So if we were to improve the next time, probably they might use the justification that this is the first time and there is always room for improvement. I believe they should engage more youths, more influencers, the Community Development Association, the Landlord Association, youth agencies, NYCN, NCN, NANDS and all. Student union bodies. If they engage all these people and utilize their strengths, they will be able to mobilize more than this moment. These are things that I believe INEC should be aware of and they also should have the resources to pull through. I think that's what Aneta was bringing up. Maybe they still don't go ahead and do these things because it's not like they can't claim that they don't have the funding to engage all these bodies that you've mentioned and all these little, little pockets here and there of persons that will be influential to get more and more, more young people registered. The National Orientation Agency also is an agency of government that should also work hand in hand with INEC to ensure that every bit of information, every new concreting in the country is covered. There's information passed to every single corner but we probably would get back to that. I want us to now talk about the level of interest. From 2015 to now, what would you say or would you describe as the level of interest of young Nigerians to actually be a part of the electoral process, to get registered, to actually get their voters' cards and vote? Do you think it has increased? In the last few years, do you think that maybe has also waned off a little bit? Yes, thank you very much. I think 2015 was a moment where a lot of young Nigerians joined the electoral process. If you notice, the current government utilised the media very well to get themselves in power. They used most of the young ones to achieve this. And by 2019, I think a little bit of interest was reduced a bit. But looking at what happened at the end starts and everything, I think it is part of the reason why some people are having the interest to join now, to do as they probably vote, register and convert their people to vote. I believe the interest has improved than the subsequent elections. Okay, we're now going to bring in someone else who is joining us to also share his views on this, Yakin Michael. Good morning, thanks for joining us. Good morning. Good morning. Great to have you on the breakfast. Let's start with your thoughts on the current figures of continuous voter registration. The online process that has currently been suspended will start again on the 4th of October. It says that just slightly above 1 million persons have been fully registered. Young persons or youth in that number is just about 700,000 and above. Would you say that INEC has done well enough when youth have, of course, gotten involved well enough? Mr Michael, can you hear us? Alright, we'll probably go back to Mr Lu A Xiong and connect with Michael in a bit. Alright, Xiong, can you hear us? Yes, and me too. So we've been talking about youth, really, and their involvement with elections, their participation. And I really still want to ask you about that question of interest. Do you think Nigerian youth are sufficiently interested enough to get off their phones and go into the fields to vote? Because when we look at what Nigerian youths talk about online, it really also revolves around politics. They talk about the failure of government. They complain about the leaders. So there's a lot of conversation about from the youths and about the youths regarding politics. But when we look at the figures on ground on election day, it seems like a far cry from what we see online. So do you think the youths, you know, is all talk and no action? You know, and do you think they're sufficiently interested? And what exactly can the Nigerian government do to make sure that Nigerian youth participate more in politics? Okay, thank you very much. Let me start from what the Nigerian government can do to make the youths participate more in politics. Let us look back at the Eighth Assembly when the Syracuse-led assembly signed, brought about the Notre-Yonge too. Now, you know, there is a particular interest when you have somebody of your age, somebody of your age range participating in an election. There is a way you want to support them. This person is young, is new. I would believe this person is Niger. This person should be able to represent our interest well in enough of these old people, enough of this, enough of that. This started, the bill started in 2019 whereby we have, we were activated before the 2019 elections and we have some young people in politics today. Now, looking at 2023, by the time a lot of young people have been encouraged to contest and occupy particular posts in Nigerian politics today, let's say both parties, both APC and PDP or any other political parties, give more opportunities. Let's say out of the total number of people contesting in a political party, 40% are youth. For sure, those 40% will mobilize more youth to participate in politics. For sure, because those will be their immediate constituency. The youth will be their immediate constituency. But if we have a situation whereby out of 100 people, only one youth is contesting, it is going to demoralize, it's going to demoralize the youth from participating in elections because why should I just go back, vote for the same set of people year in, year out, with no results, this and that. But look at, let's say BBN for example, I know it is a different platform totally, but because they believe the guys there are young, that is why a lot of young people are putting their interest in it. So if we have a lot of young guys vying for particular posts, vying for a lot of political posts in Nigeria, a lot of younger ones too will want to participate in politics. That is for sure. So if the government wants to help out, aside from the not too young to run the, they should also increase the quota given to young ones in each election. Let's say a state House of Assembly should be limited to the age of 18 or 19 to 35. Then for the governorship and president should be limited to 35 to 50. So sure you have a lot of young guys who are coming believing that this is the real change that power is now shifted from the older generation to the younger ones. So I believe if you have a youth contestant for sure you have more youth who are interested in participating in an election. Alright, now let's bring in once again Yakin Mai. Thanks for joining us once again. Thank you so much. Good morning. So let's get your thoughts first of all on the whole process which has currently been or ended the first phase and we currently have 1,081,000 plus that have been registered. Do you call this a success for now? Well, the definition of success is really true. But then as you got the political environment as you got the political sector in Nigeria I am of your opinion that the CBL as it is currently ongoing cannot be said to be a success. Well, we might have experienced a significant improvement issue that youth are much more interested in politics but we cannot outrightly say that that is a success. So Michael, really we've been talking about how to get more youth to be interested in this and something your colleague have said is that to get more youth interested in the electoral process in voting, in registering to vote, that what needs to be done is to see more representation of the youth on the ballot paper such as increasing the quota that is allowed for young people to be represented in politics. Do you agree with that? Or would you say it should start from education or the grassroots, from a primary and secondary education system that reorientation about our rights, you know, to vote? Yes. Not so simply the not so long-term and then still fighting oppression. So right now, I feel the issue is not with the age limit. I think the issue right now is enlightenment and sensitization.  So if you're going to get into that, you need to be all shady and all. So I feel, and I think that there needs to be mass sensitization. The average Nigerian youth needs to be educated on the importance of politics and its place in national development. We need to understand that should the boys' school system leaders are bred and those leaders are the older, they are further with the responsibility of advancing the course of the country.  Politics is a platform that should be embraced by every Nigerian youth. If and truly if you want to see Nigeria red again. Let's go back to Miss Oluwashion Abiodu. I want us to look at the regions and the numbers. It seems to be a pretty fair spread across the country with regards to registration of voters. But there are certain states that topped the list, Anambra with currently the highest, 138,000 completed registration. We also have Oshun state with 63,000 that have completed their registration cano. I think it's a third with 56,000 completed registration. Quickly share your views on how this is spread out in different regions. And you know Anambra state, pretty impressive with its registration. Maybe because of the elections. I think yes, yes. We should put into perspective the upcoming election. In Anambra and as well in Oshun, I expect a good turnout too in Iketi where an election is coming up too as well. Oh just 19,000 in Iketi. Pretty disappointing in Lagos also. Lagos currently only has 25,000. Yes. So if we look at Lagos or Yondu, aside from Oshun, I think Oshun has a lot of people who registered but are yet to complete. And as well they are yet to finish the registration, complete registration. Oshun has that number. But I think it is majorly because of the election coming up. Cano doing well, I think that is because some of their political leaders in Cano are trying to sensitize and do the grassroots work just to prove that they have the numbers. You know, this argument has been online that the South should have more numbers because we are closer to the ocean. Why those ones are the deserts? Why are they having more numbers? It's a lot of truth here and there. I believe the reason why Cano is in that list is because some of their leaders are taking it up that the younger ones should register and finish it up because he wants to prove a point. If a political leader, I can tell you, none of the governors in Southwest, I didn't see any of them come out to say the younger ones should participate in the ongoing CVR registration. I don't think you see it on any of their platforms. None of them advertised it. None of them tried to carry the younger ones along, not even some of their aides. We don't even have them coming out to say hey guys, register, try to facilitate more people to register. If we have these people, if they do the same thing, I know the reason why you know, for sure because of the election, political members, political parties will try to register people so that they will be able to vote for them in the election. But because of the other things that are not in the election, they just left it, just there, they are not interested because the election is not around the corner. I believe by the time I next start the next, the physical registration, you will see these political parties coming out to tell people to go and vote, trying to converse them, trying to say, we will take you there, we will give you a free access so that you will be able to do it on time, get your PVC on time and all that. But that is because elections are coming and they have a fast approach. But in the case of Anambra and Oshun, the month in between, Anambra is November this year, Oshun is also early next year. So I think it is because of the proximity to the election, that is why we have those numbers coming in. And for Kano, it is because they want to prove the point that they have the numbers, not just the 2 million KKK votes from Kano, Katina and Kaduna, that they have the numbers that they can, they are actually more than the people from the South. Everybody should be trying to prove that point, not just those in Kano state on Katina or Kaduna argument. But you understand that the Northerners, they tend to be more involved in politics than some of us from the South. Still, responsibility of those here. Also, for the people who are very, very active online, there should be a lot more energy. And once again, I would say I'm disappointed with Lagos numbers because of the population here and because of the conversation here, seems to be very, very loud. Yeah, Kid Michael, I'm going to round up with you. Quickly also share your views on what your expectations are. There are still three more phases. Do you think that there would be many more people getting involved? What more do you think needs to be added to ensure that we have maybe, hopefully, 10 million, 12 million online registered voters? Okay, thank you very much. I think where we are, we can be accredited to the fallout of the Lake Hitokit incident. So, as you speak, I think the youth are much more interested in politics, but then there's still a lot to be done. For instance, out of the six geopolitical zones in Nigeria, the nodes account for every chunk of electorate. And then, I don't know if it's true or not, that's up for debate, but then we all know that there's still a lot of education that needs to be done to the people in the north, no offense to them. So, I think there needs to be mass sensitization. I think the youth needs to be enlightened. They need to be proper channels and platforms for Nigerian citizens to get politically educated such that they understand the state of Nigerian policy, such that they understand where they are coming in and when they understand where they are coming from and where they intend to get to. If all of these channels and platforms are put in place, I think in my area, the Nigerian youth is interested in Nigerian politics. Well, for your time on the show, and Oluwa Shinwo as well, thank you very much for coming. Alright, have a great day. Okay, we'll take a short break and return with our next conversation, which is, of course, going away from voter registration now to the economy and why there's more and more Nigerians eager to save their money in foreign currency. We'll talk about that after this break. Stay with us.


Personal Finance PowerPoint Presentation, small cap, prepare to get financially fit by practicing personal finance. Most of this information comes from Investopedia Small Cap, which you can find online. Take a look at the references, resources, continue your research from there. This by Adam Barone, updated October 20, 2021 in prior presentations. We've been looking at investment goals, strategies, tools, keeping in mind the two major categories of investments, that being the fixed income, usually the bonds, the equities, typically the common stock. Also thinking about other tools we might be using, such as mutual funds, ETFs, possibly helping us to diversify, even with less of an upfront investment than if we invested in individual stocks, individual bonds. Keeping that in mind, we're now asking, what is a small cap? A small cap is a public company whose total market value or market capitalization is about $300 million to $2 billion. The precise figures vary. So now we're looking at the companies, we're usually thinking about companies that of course are on the exchanges, so we're thinking about investing in companies, companies that have decided to be on exchanges, we're trying to classify these different companies. And now we're looking at that classification in terms of the size of the company. Once we have those classifications, we could then possibly use other tools, such as mutual funds and ETFs, to help think about investing in sections of the stock market based on size, in this case, the small cap. So small cap investors generally are looking for up and coming young companies that are growing fast, that is they're looking for the large caps of the future. So in other words, if we think about the business cycle of a company, we're looking for the companies that are kind of in this growth area here typically. When we look at these numbers, you might think, wow, $300 million to $2 billion, that seems pretty big to me. But of course, we're thinking about these publicly traded companies in comparison to other publicly traded companies. So in relation, these are types of grump companies that could have the potential for growth. So we're usually thinking about the companies that we're hoping are kind of here in their investment cycle, therefore, we would expect them to possibly not be given as much out in the form of dividends, possibly taking the money and reinvesting it, the money that they earn by doing business and purchasing more property plant and equipment so that they can grow faster. And if they were to do so, we get a return on that or we get a benefit from that by it being reflected in the market price, as opposed to more established companies, larger caps we would expect would be companies that are kind of up here, they're already well-established. We wouldn't expect them to be able to pop in terms of their growth, to have that big growth spurt, but we would expect them to be marching on nicely, helping to provide us possibly some fixed income, possibly in the form of the dividends. So understanding small caps, the cap in small cap stands for capitalization. The term in its entirety is market capitalization. This is the market's current estimate of the total dollar value of a company's outstanding shares to calculate a company's market capitalization, multiply its current share price by the number of outstanding shares. Classifications such as large cap or small cap are approximations that change over time. Furthermore, the precise definition of small cap stocks versus large cap stocks may vary among brokers. So these are general kind of classifications. When you get into the specifics into the weeds, then that line could vary a bit. So you want to have like a general understanding of these terms. And then when you're getting into, say, some more technical kind of analysis, then you might have to dive into the details where those specific lines are being drawn with regards to classifications. Just like any kind of classification type of thing, you're going to say, oh, really? So I mean, a person is an adult at what, 17? What is that? Or 18? Or 21? Isn't that an arbitrary line? How did you draw that line? We've got the general idea of, OK, yes, non-adult versus adult, but where is that line? It's not a hard and fast line, of course. It's going to be something that we're going to have to draw somewhere. So one misconception about small caps is that they are startups or brand new companies. In reality, many small cap companies are well-established businesses with strong track records and great financials. So they might have been around for quite some time and still be classified in the small cap area in terms of the size of the company. And because they are smaller, small cap shares prices have a greater chance of growth. Investing in small cap versus large cap companies. As they rule, small cap companies offer investors more room for growth, but also bring greater risk and volatility than large cap companies. You would think those big giant companies are kind of marching along or fairly well-established. You would think the smaller the size of the company, then the more potential they have to grow, but also, of course, with that potential comes risk. So a large cap offering has a market capitalization of $10 billion or higher for large cap companies such as General Electric, GE, Coca-Cola, Aggressive Growth, maybe in the rearview mirror, such companies offer investors stability and dividends but rarely fast growth. So a lot of the companies that are kind of name brands that we just understand or know often are going to be those bigger, well-established companies, we don't expect them to kind of pop off and have some big growth spurt because they're basically already have the infrastructure in there, but we do expect them to generally be marching along and therefore the dividends for them, we would expect them to be or the earnings they generate. We expect maybe they were going to give a dividend on it as opposed to, say, reinvesting it in order to facilitate more purchase of property plants and equipment to have more growth in the future. Historically, small cap stocks have outperformed large cap stocks. That said, whether smaller or larger companies perform better varies over time based on the broader economic climate. So it's been a really interesting look at people's conceptions of large companies versus small companies. For a time, people started to think something like a GE, for example, the bigger was better because you have this economy of scale concept. So it was thought that these big companies would kind of envelop everything over time and just continue to grow. And then later on, it started to say, hey, maybe that's not the way things actually work. Maybe the big companies can't do this broad range of different types of things. And so a lot of people started thinking that maybe specialization became more and more important and then this kind of dynamic continues to move forward in terms of how much benefit is just simply size and how much benefit is there to be lean and mean and what are they going to be the different kind of management strategies between the two. So for example, large cap companies dominated during the tech bubble of the 1990s as investors gravitated towards stocks such as Microsoft, Costco, and AOL Time Warner. After the bubble burst in March 2000, that was painful, small cap companies became the better performers as many of the large caps hemorrhaged value in the crash. So one advantage of investing in small cap stocks is the opportunity to beat institutional investors. Mutual funds have internal rules that restrict them from buying small cap companies. In addition, the Investment Company Act of 1940 prohibits mutual funds from owning more than 10% of a company's voting stock. So this makes it difficult for mutual funds to build a meaningful position in small cap stocks. So for example, if you think about these mutual funds, they're going to be pulling together money from a bunch of different people and then they're diversifying the portfolio by investing in different companies. Now if you're investing in really large companies, if you're a mutual fund, even though you have a lot of money to invest, it's not likely that you're going to invest so much that you really have a real heavy weighting because you're purchasing a lot of stock of these big companies. But if you're looking at smaller type of companies and you invest a large amount of money in this pooled mutual fund into one company, then you're going to have a significant portion of ownership which is going to give you a significant amount of control over what's going to happen such as the voting on the board of directors. So that's something that the market's going to be skeptical of and there's kind of regulations in terms of it. So in any case, we've got the small cap versus mid cap. Investors who want the best of both worlds might consider mid cap companies which have market capitalizations between $2 billion and $10 billion. Historically these companies can offer more stability than small cap companies yet conformed growth potential than large cap companies. So obviously the mid cap are going to be in the middle somewhere in between the two. However, for self-directed investors spending the time to surf through small caps to find a diamond in the rough can prove to be time well spent. So if you're looking at individual stocks to invest in individual stocks and you're trying to find the underlying value of the stock, you're looking for that stock that's going to have that explosive growth, then in terms of that strategy, you might for example have a portfolio of investment that's invested in mutual funds that's well diversified and you might have some other money that you want to invest in individual stocks and possibly do it like a little bit of gambling or a little bit of investing that way. In that case, then you might be looking for the types of stocks that have the potential to grow because you're looking for those stocks that could maybe have that explosive growth component and analyze the fundamentals of those stocks and you might be looking more in the small cap area or mid cap area with that kind of investment. In any case, even in our data rich world, great small cap investments fly under investor radar because they get little coverage from analysts. So in other words, when you're thinking about the people that are analyzing the different kinds of stocks, you're often thinking about people that are kind of managing these big large funds, which makes me somewhat limited to investing in some of these smaller companies so they might not hear as much about them. So you might still be able to have access to them because they are traded on the public stock exchanges. So you have the kind of trust and transparency. You get to be able to look at the financial statements and so on and so forth. But they have a little bit less focus in terms of the general kind of media scrutiny that you might get in other kind of larger funds, which could lead to some potentials possibly. So small cap stocks and the Russell 2000. The Russell 2000 is a small cap stock market index composed of the 2000 smallest companies in the Russell 3000. The index is frequently used as a benchmark for measuring the performance of small cap mutual funds. The S&P and Dow Jones indices focus on large cap stocks. So usually when we think about a type of funds, it's like the S&P or Dow Jones, those are usually focused on the large cap stocks. Those are going to be the ones that you often hear about most often in stock market channels and whatnot. Thus investors hoping to track small cap stocks performance should keep their eyes glued to the Russell 2000 or the S&P 600 or similar small cap index.


India's textile industry has led to pollution in nearby rivers and water bodies with various contaminants including azodis which contribute 70% to total effluent discharge. Biological processes can be used to degrade these compounds and exploring microbial diversity is key to developing an effective bioremediation approach. The review also discusses the impact of azodis on flora and fauna and the use of nanoparticle technology for treatment of textile wastewater.

So Anson, outlaw leader, looked up expectantly as one of his men entered the two-room settler's cabin, which was used as a hideout. Jack, what brings you back from town such a rush? Two things, Carl. First, I heard a deputy marshal from south of here telling the sheriff a certain masked man who helps the law without the failure of the Anson gang. What? Yeah. And second, a message came through from Pedro. He's on his way here to join us. Here's the message. Thanks. Jack Drake, care of station master Lakeland, Texas, how do you know your name? Well, I reckon Jim told him. I never met Pedro, but Jim knew him in prison. Now, let's see what he says. A mutual friend tells me you work for a man who might have a job for me. I shall arrive his place in a day or two. Jim has told me how to get there. I'll bring a note from him to identify me. Pedro Hanos. What about the mass, man? I know all about him.  The Indian rides a paint. They're getting on our trail. We'll have to do something about it pronto. What can we do? I doubt if they've arrived in this territory yet. We'll fix it so that when they do arrive, they'll run into trouble. How? I'm tall like that mask man. So it's up to you to get a white horse and a paint along with an engine. After that, I'll tell you and the others not to plan. That night, the entire gang of eight men were gathered in the living room of a cabin. Hey, Jack, where's Carl? He'll be here soon. What's he planning for tonight? Yeah, what's going on? He's waiting to see me. Look, a mask on. An Indian with a big and easy man. That's Carl. Yeah, sir, I fooled you that time. What's your idea? A certain mask on our brain is Indian friends are heading for this territory to get a line on us for the law. I aim to get them in wrong with the law before they get here. Now get your horses and hit leather. I want to leave for town right away. Later that night, the express clerk in Lakeland looked up as two figures at her to... The mask man, Indian Indian. I'm reaching. Time while I keep in color. Me tie him tight. The Indian quickly tied and gagged the clerk. Then he and Carl emptied the safe of its contents. As they were leaving, Carl made sure to open the door wide a moment so the white horse and the paint were in the clerk's line of vision. Along, mister. By the time somebody finds you, we'll be far away from here. Come on, Indian. Half an hour later, a customer entered the office and released the clerk who immediately reported the robbery to the sheriff.  That's right, sir. The mask man was a tall, well-built hombre. When they opened the door to leave, I caught sight of a white horse and a paint outside. You think she doesn't seem positive. What doesn't? Everything. You're thinking that, lad. I'll fool the poshie and try to pick up the trail of those robberies. Carl and the others expertly covered their trail so the sheriff and his poshie gave up the search and returned to town. Meanwhile, in the hills outside of Warton, a town 20 miles south of Lakeland, the lone ranger and tunnel rode the trail northward. As they rounded a bend, a horseman with a drawn gun barred their way. Stop where you are, senorys. You're covered. I have noticed you have been behind me for many miles, senorys. I say to myself, maybe they are following Fedor, that I remember something. A mask man and Indian who helped the law put my friend Jim Pender in the prison.  But, of course, that may go. And I have decided to settle things for him with you and that Indian. I will not wait any longer, this is it. Get him on the shoulder. Knocked out from call. Search him tollo and take his gun, and we'll banish his wounds. Here's a letter. Oh, let me see. Dear Carl, this will introduce Pedro Hanoes, my former cellmate. He'll take my place in the gang. Pedro's a fine gunman who will do his part well, Jim. That note to outlaw leader. Sound like it. Yes, I think so. To Carl Anson and the man who's gang we're hunting. There's a crude map on the back of the note. Evidently showing the way to Anson's hideout. You give note to Sheriff and Lakeland, maybe? Not right away. This man, Tutto, I'll disguise myself to look like him. Take his horse and ride to the hideout as Pedro. Oh, that's plenty risky. I don't think so. You take him to the Sheriff and Rockton, and you meet me later, I'll be disguised as Pedro. Then we'll ride on to the territory near Lakeland. The sun was setting, and a lone ranger without his mask and disguised as Pedro stopped on a low ridge overlooking the hollow in which the hideout cabin was located. Tutto went with him to get the location of the hideout. That must be the cabin, Tutto. You take Silver to the grove we saw and make camp there. I'll learn all I can about the gang and I'll get in touch with you and we'll notify the Sheriff. Let me be waiting. I'll mount Pedro's horse and ride down the slope. There should be a garden near the cabin. Stay with Tutto, Silver. Let me wait. See if you get by guard. Do I look enough like Pedro to pass? This guy is plenty good. Take care of Silver and Adios.  Tutto waited among the trees on the ridge with Silver and Scout as the lone ranger leisurely rode down the slope toward the cabin. The Great Horse Silver watched as his master rode toward the hideout and approached a gate where he stopped. A man appeared beside him and after a moment or two they saw the lone ranger dismount and the two men walked toward the cabin. Uh, you can get past guard all right. And we go to camp. Come, Silver. Get him up, Scout. Tutto pitched camp after tying Silver to a nearby tree. Then the Indian went to the town of Lakeland for a few supplies. He dismounted at the hitch-rack. Oh, Scout. Oh, all right. All right. We'll change it. Don't move. Oh. Why you hold gun on me? You ought to know. I saw you enter in town on that painting. I'll wait for the sheriff. I'm taking you to jail, Indian, for your partner express office who'll have a couple of days to go on. Oh, that's not true. Let me just come to town. Oh, you're talking in my office. Come on. Start walking. A short time later in the sheriff's office, Tutto tried to explain. That's not true. We hold up an express office. You mean you don't have a mask, friend, eh? We have friend to wear mask in Lone Ranger. All right, you say. Where is he now? We can't tell right now. Yeah, look, Indian. If you get that mask, man, here, and he proves what you say, all right. But until then, I'll have to pick you in the cuss today. I'm keeping you here in jail. In the meantime, the Lone Ranger had been accepted as Pedro Hanos by Carl Anson on the strength of his appearance and the note he brought. Carl was discussing the gang with him. Yeah, Pedro. Had two new men join up just the other day. Jim sent him to me. Same as he did you. You have a large number of hombres in the gang. No. Ten counting you and myself. You seem to be clever enough to evade the laws and you'll come. We have the local sheriff run around in circles. Carl, can I speak to you a minute? Sure. I'll be right back, Pedro. Let's step outside. What's up, Jack? The Indian will rise with a masked man who's been caught and put in jail. So they reach this territory, huh? Yeah. The Indian won't tell where the masked man is. He's still on the loose. Don't worry. You'll be concerned about getting his Indian friend out of jail. We'll keep our eyes open in case he comes snooping around. Make sure somebody's guarding the front and back approaches at this camp.  All right, boss. Jack just brought a little news from town, Pedro. Some private. But of course they are.  Just draw and shoot to kill. The Clinton falls on the first act of our long-ranger adventure before the next exciting theme. Please permit us to pause for just a few moments. There.  Now you can get a copy of a real, genuine, original Confederate bill free in each specially marked package of Cheerios. There are nine different bills in the whole set, ranging from $1 to $1,000. And each bill looks so much like the original Confederate bill, you can hardly tell the difference.  As I said, one bill comes free with each special Cheerios package. No waiting, nothing to send in. It's right at your grocers. If you get a $2 bill in your first package, you may get a $500 bill in the next and so on. It's easy to collect the whole set of nine different bills, and I bet you'll want to be the first in your neighborhood to have them all. And you'll have something else that's good, too. Cheerios. Seems everybody loves that wonderful toasted old flavor, and everybody needs the go-power Cheerios gives. Remember now, inside each special Cheerios package, there's a copy of a real genuine Confederate bill. Start collecting yours today. Now, to continue. At the camp Tato had made the previous evening, the Lone Ranger's loyal horse Silver waited patiently for the Indians' return. As time went on, Silver became restless. It was only on rare occasions that he was tied to a tree as he was now, and never before had his once been neglected. Hours passed, and he became lonely and very thirsty. Whenever he heard distant cookies, he lifted his ears expectantly. But Tato and Scout didn't return, and most of all, he missed the nearness and companionship of his beloved master. Morning came, and still the White Stallion waited, alone. His love and trust for the Lone Ranger was great, and he sensed that something was wrong. He had been trained to wait patiently at times, but this was different. Finally, Silver's desire to find and be with his master was more than he could suppress. He gnawed at the rope which held him to the tree until it parted. Then, remembering where he had last seen the Lone Ranger, he galloped from the camp. At the hideout, Carl was talking to his right-hand man Jack. Jack? What brings you here? Well, I've been watching, Carl. It seemed to be all right. Each of them is tall, well set up, and go in the gym quick on the draw. Jim knows how to pick them all right. Well, tonight they get their first work out with a gang. What are you planning to do? Clean out the bank and town, and we'll leave this territory. Well, I'll join the others and tell them to be ready for the night. Hey, look through the window. What are you looking at? I'm looking down the slope toward the gates, but nobody's in the saddle. Oh, the guard's stopping them at the gate. Guard, look them over. I've seen that stallion before. Look at that fancy riding gear. He's the Mask Man's horse. Holy cat, the Mask Man must have been thrown or something. Is he backpacking? No, I don't think anything happened to the Mask Man. His stallion wouldn't come here if something did. He'd go back to the Lone Ranger's camp. Well, then what do you make of it? I ain't got a feeling this stallion came here because his owner is around here somewhere. The three new hombres who joined us in the last few days is really the Lone Ranger. Oh, you're local. No, I'm not. Each one of us is tall and well built. I'll get those three new hombres outside and have them line up.  Then let him loose. I figure he'll go straight to his master. Meanwhile, at the town jail, Tatl thought of silver tied back at the camp. Expecting to return immediately, he hadn't waited to unsettle the stallion, nor had he fed him. He was deeply concerned, not only about silver, but also because he realized the Lone Ranger might need his help. Finally, the Indian decided to take the sheriff into his confidence. Sheriff! Me talk now! Sheriff! Me not tell before, because him say wait, but me not wait longer. The Tatl told what had taken place and where the Lone Ranger had gone. When he finished, the sheriff exclaimed, why didn't you tell me before? If those come and find out who he is, they'll plug him. Me think it good you get posse and go to hide out. That's what I'll do, and I'll take you along to show the way. If this is a trick, me tell crew. I'll get you out of there. At the hideout, Carl entered the back room where the men were lounging. I want you, Pete and Joe, to come outside. Of course, Senor Carl. The rest of you come along too. I'm going to try an interesting experiment. Pedro, Pete and Joe, go outside and set up a target against a big cottonwood tree that you see out the side window. I want to see how well you men can shoot. I'll meet you at the side of the cabin in a few minutes. What did you say, Senor? Come along, Pete and Joe.  One of those umbrellas is really the Lone Ranger. What? How do you know? Which one is she? A few moments later, Carl lined the Lone Ranger and the other two new men against the west wall of the cabin facing the target. The rest of the gang stood watching them expectantly. Then Carl called up. Jack, we're ready. At the sight of Silver, the Lone Ranger realized what was about to happen. The great stallion was looking at his master and straining to be free as Jack and Carl held his vital. The Lone Ranger tank that made no outward show of his feelings. Now, men, one of those three new umbrellas is a Lone Ranger who came here to help the law catch him. And this stallion is going to show us which one.  Go on, reach! This is strange treatment, Senor Carl. Think so, Pedro. Well, this stallion is mighty loyal to his master. And because of that loyalty, he's going to betray him to us. All right, Jack, let him go. The great horse, little realizing that he was betraying his master by his loyalty, watched forward. And with a winny of delight, nuzzled the Lone Ranger's shoulders. Pedro, go on. Keep him covered. Let's gun him. Yeah, fill him with lead. Don't wait. That's for me to do. I've waited a long time. And this is it. Hold it. Like lightning, the Lone Ranger drew and fired from the hip, wounding Carl in the gun arm. Get him! Get him! Before the men could shoot, the sheriff and his posse rode in fast, firing as they approached. The outlaws turned in panic to fight off the oncoming posse. As the posse rode in, the Lone Ranger ran around the corner of the cabin, leading Silver out of a line of fire. From his vantage point, the masked man opened fire on the outlaws, putting them between him and the posse. After several of the outlaws were wounded, they realized they had no chance and finally threw down their guns. We give up. We give up. Get their guns and keep them covered, then. You all right, Kimusami? Yes, Toto. The Silver came here. We tell you about that. So, told the Lone Ranger what had happened, and how he had finally decided to tell the sheriff about the Lone Ranger's plans. It's a good thing you did tell the sheriff, Toto. The posse arrived just in time. Mister, you sure don't look like I think the masked man should look. How do I know that you're the Lone Ranger? This letter is signed by the governor. You want to identify me, Sheriff? Here. Yeah. This is good enough for me. We would have shot down that Lone Ranger, Carl, if you hadn't insisted on doing it yourself.   You're the one who thinks he's so dog-gone smart. You figured that by posse and as a masked man a robber, the bankier of the night, you'd get him into trouble. But he turned out to be smarter than you are. Well, that's either. Hanson's the one who posed as a masked man in that whole... Ah. I'm sorry. You didn't for holding in jail. That's all right. Same thing. Manage their wounds and we'll get them to jail. Some of you keep them covered every minute. Sheriff, you seem to have enough men to handle them. I'll go back to camp for Tato and get rid of this disguise. We'll stop them to see you before we leave the territory. Adios, everyone. Adios. Goodbye, Gully. There goes a real man. Seems like he fooled Hanson and his men aplenty.  I don't... Yes, sir. Get on your way. Get on your way. Get on your way with Weedy. You'll never get discouraged if you keep in mind champions are made, not born. Let's see how Tom Fears, past catching end for the Los Angeles Rams, got on his way. At 12, Tom played football a lot, and many a bump is what he got. But he kept trying, never quit. And here's what helped to keep him fit. He ate his Weedies every bit. Today, Tom sparks those touchdown drives. It's Weedy still on which he thrives. Weedies to Fears. There's a past combination that's been clicking steady now for 19 years. Real energy in Weedies. There's a whole kernel of wheat in every Weedy's flake. Okay, Tom, snag that past. Hey, hey, hey. He's on his way. On his way. He's on his way. On his way. Get on your way with Weedy. Because champions are made, not born. Yes, sir. Get on your way. Get on your way. Get on your way with Weedy, breakfast of champions. The Lone Ranger is brought to you by General Mills every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at this same time. Be sure to listen. This recorded program has come to you from Detroit. This is ABC Radio Network.

These days, people seem to be obsessed with the idea that if you just change your vibe, your life will change. Now unfortunately, this just simply is not true. Now in this video, I want to share the results of coaching hundreds of people one-on-one and what I've seen works and what doesn't.  Alex Hein here over at Modern Health Monk. So before we jump in, I've put together a free seven-day self-growth challenge to the first link right below this video. You'll get an email every day on how to do a specific habit that will change your life in a very specific way. So you guys can check it out right below this video, the first link. You know, everyone seems to be obsessed on the internet right now with changing your vibe as if it is the only just the singular thing that makes the difference in living a better life. Well, I've coached hundreds of people one-on-one and I've coached probably thousands in group settings at this point. And I can recall one story of a woman that I was coaching who was about 26. She was having sort of a breakdown moment where she was saying that, you know, she's been working hard and working smart doing everything to change her vibe on a daily basis and raise her vibration and she was no closer to finding love after three years. She had gotten a little fitter but still didn't have her dream body. Still was working the job that she didn't love and in general wasn't feeling very happy with her progress in life. She shared it number one because she was feeling sorry for herself but also she shared it because I was her coach and she wanted to see if I could help deconstruct maybe where the breakdown was. And what I found that for her, as I found for almost every one of the people I've coached, the breakdown is not usually in the philosophy. The breakdown is usually in the pragmatic aspects of doing things daily. What I find is that most of us really are not doers and that is almost always the breakdown. Yes, you may truly have limiting beliefs and mental barriers and you may be so depressed or so doubtful that anything will happen that you don't take any action. Sure, raising your vibe will improve things in that scenario but what I find for most of us, the breakdown is, is that we don't take even one hour a day of action congruent with the kind of person we want to become or action congruent with the kind of outcome that we want to have. Very often the breakdown is not in not raising your vibe or doing some inner work. The breakdown is that you're just not doing any of the work or not enough of it. So raising your vibe is only one piece of the puzzle.  So let's say for example when raising your vibe doesn't work let's let's break it down, right? Let's say what you're trying to do is find love and you just visualize the feeling of being love, the person and how you feel around them and what you want the experience to be like but you change nothing about your daily habits or your daily rituals, right? You don't meet new people on a daily basis and you continue not to meet new people because you just work and go home. You haven't changed your attitude at all and so next time you meet someone who's decent they're kind of all on the fence about you. You haven't tried to expand your social circle to increase the chances of serendipity and so you don't meet any new people. What are the chances you're going to find love? Probably not very likely. Let's say what you're trying to do is earn more money.  You believe it's possible, you visualize it, you feel it, what does it feel like to earn $80,000 in my job now? You see what that would do to change your life, how you would feel day to day but you don't do anything day to day. You don't acquire any new skills in your job, you don't ever ask for a raise, you don't ever apply for new jobs. What are the chances that your new job is going to happen and that raise? My opinion, not very likely and let's say what you're trying to do is build a successful business. So every day you feel the feelings of being a successful person, you visualize it, you can see the clients and the added income and the people you're helping and you see your new daily schedule but you don't actually change anything day to day about your habits and you don't actually take a new business course, hire a coach, put in an extra hour a day to acquire new valuable skills. So what are the chances that, let's say a year from now, you have a six-figure business? I don't think it's very likely. This is an addiction to what's easy but when you really look at most high performers, yes they're doing some things that are easy but they're also either doing them or paying other people to do things that are not so easy. So I think the doing is the most important part of getting the life that you want.  I think it's easy, I think it's convenient, I think it's people just like things that are easy. So what I think is more useful is raising your daily action instead of raising your vibe. Think about like Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant, think about sports athletes, even violinists, right, pianists. A lot of the time those people have that vibe of I'm the shit, I can do this, I'm the best there is. Not because they started off with that but because they earned that through the action. It's the reverse, right? They went out there, they did 10,000 shots, 10,000 free throws a day, a thousand layups, the dribbling drills, the violinists are doing hours of excruciating solo practice every single day. I mean Anders Erickson, the researcher behind the 10,000 hour rule, solo practice is often viewed as the single most strongest correlator with expert performance and is often the least liked. I'm not saying that becoming greater, building a great life has to suck but I am saying we should look at the facts first. These people develop that confidence not because they just have the confidence immediately on day one, right?  To me you should be tracking your congruency with your daily habits and not necessarily just your vibe alone. If your goal is to find love let's say instead of just doing a raise your vibe exercise why not track how many social engagements you go to on a daily weekly basis that are new, new rooms, you might meet new people and make new friends and find someone at a higher rate than normal.  That to me is a lot more scientifically predictable to help you find someone you love than these other exercises. If money's the thing you want to work on rather than just sitting down and trying to raise your vibe or doing a journaling exercises why not take a business class? Why not dedicate an hour a day towards freelancing and starting to build a real business? Why not actually take some time to acquire new skills at your current job by doing a certification then actually applying for a raise in three months at that job or even applying for a new job? Tracking your elevated daily action is a lot more likely to help you reach that goal than anything internally or immaterially that you do and in the same way if you want to build a successful business or a youtube channel or write a book why not track how many hours a day did I put into really building that business that was action not studying not research not watching gary v but how many hours did I build and create that is the kind of action that leads to designing and building an incredible life that actually ends up happening a year from now or three years from now so my opinion raising your vibe not the most useful way to change your life raising your action and being congruent about that daily that's the most useful way to do it and that's what you should focus on on a daily basis all right guys download that free seven-day self-growth challenge to get started with all this stuff and i'll see you in the next video over here

being very rebellious okay this is the message that's coming through and it's very odd yes I don't know who this person is they were in the whole world was in action and moving and getting things done working nine two five what a way to make a living this person was out at 2 a.m. make it 11 you know it was it was day and night okay so I feel like this whoever this person is they're changing their ways they're they're syncing up with the rest of the world settling down being more strategic they're they're they're getting old time is catching up with them this is what I'm hearing they're not sleeping all day long and staying up all night long they're changing their their biorhythms they're trying to you know let's groove tonight I don't know they're trying to get in the groove right they're trying to get into the groove of humanity here so we could be a part of life no longer live in like a vampire that's that is the message okay so I'll see y'all later have a great weekend so that's what I'm getting right now I don't know if this is you I don't know who this is this is just the message that's coming through here okay so whatever toxic type of I don't know seeing listen please don't get me wrong if you're someone who works the night shift that's not a toxic lifestyle okay I'm not saying that if you work overnight like in the hospital think you're a toxic person no no no no no somebody's got to work those shifts and we're all grateful to you if that's your if you're doing that because let me just tell you I've worked those shifts and those are hard they're hard shifts there are people who who do those 16 20-hour shifts and they're filling in and those are those are the grinders I know it I know it and I'm saying that's bad there are people who are who have to do those things right and there's people who want to do those things I don't know what the deal is with this person I just know that this person is tired of doing these things because it's affecting their health they don't want to live this way anymore they want to they want to be happy they want to have a they want to cut because a majority of people I believe don't quote me the majority of people like the major majority of people don't work those shifts right those are they're tough not everybody can do that not everybody this person wants to settle down right maybe a lot of younger people can do that too you know and they're they're built for that so they can do that you know so this person I feel like it's making some changes in their life okay so that's the message right alright so let's take a look is it you Virgo or is it someone that you know what does this mean for this person now if you're if you're connected to this person if this is not you if you're connected to this person does this have an effect on your has it were you connected to this person and it had an effect on your relationship it may have right because that's the life that's a hard life if you were in a relationship with someone who was like a physician or something like or someone who was on call or someone in the military and they were gone a long time or someone who was you know had one of those jobs that it's very hard to sustain a long-term kind of relationship with someone who just had a kind of a chaotic schedule yeah yeah I feel like this is gonna be shocking news cuz you're gonna find out about this this weekend something's coming up this person's walking away from that lifestyle look you've got the chariot well they do at least coming towards you or at least for you and your reading this person has a chariot there's so much movement right now here with this reading this person a hundred percent boom walking away moving away sailing away so major transition this person is done with this lifestyle they're done maybe they might be retiring or they could be just saying no no more no more I'm gonna go flip burgers nine to five and they've had enough and that's what is that doing it's freeing up time for them okay so they're now kind of coming to this place here where it's like okay now I can make some plans now I can figure out which way I want to go here because they're no longer they have they can how can I say it they can get back to the land of the living instead of being in the land of the loss like will and Holly and if nobody gets that reference shoot me okay cuz I know some of I hope some of you do get that reference because I said that the other day somebody was like well in Holly what are you talking about I'm just like I'm out of here I'm leaving nobody's relating to me goodbye I'm leaving goodbye so yeah now this person can now actually make plans and make decisions is stated the crosser okay now where do I want to go how do I want to do so how does this relate to you Virgo yes because I feel like there's someone there's a connection that you have with someone that there was a relationship that was not sustainable due to someone's time being completely occupied by misalignment there was a misalignment nothing to do with the lack of love nothing to do with anything else other than it feels like scheduling it feels like scheduling it's a scheduling error that's what it feels like and I see this person is you know with this hand of cards showing up here I feel like this person has had this on their mind for a while I don't know if they've tried to have a relationship and it just didn't pan out for them or they've tried to have relationships and they didn't really pant didn't work out or tried to have it with you it was just too difficult to maintain but yeah it feels like even with that clock it's just things would cycle relationships or the relationship with you just kind of cycle in and out and it just now it's time to heal make some progress okay this person is like I need some time here like I need more time I don't have enough time for relationships or for my time with Virgo especially the one I love because I'm dedicated or when we can't see each other we can't be together because I've got my commitments and we're just not on the right schedule to be together there's so that everything gets in the way you know it's slipping and sliding in different directions that's what I feel like is pretty much the issue here and so what happens in that kind of has caused a lot of friction that's what I feel like mm-hmm and that's coming to an end those three major arcanas there on the left like you're gonna be shocked this person is walking away from that starting a whole new chapter here in their life so for somebody this is someone who's like totally retiring they're just like done like it's done I'm free I'm going to Acapulco well maybe that's not a good place to go right now you know when I come with I'm traveling let's go let's go take you with me let's go live in the boat let's go travel for three months spend all our time together beautiful energy seriously beautiful look there is so much of this energy that the cards keep coming out it's a it's amazing movement movement travel travel it's just beautiful so this weekend I feel like you're gonna find out about this there's like a all-new beginning happening here this is like with the magician magic happening over this weekend now for some of you is this a is this a romantic relationship I want you to notice there's the only cups here is the eight of cups and that's a card of like abandoning plans abandonment that kind of thing so for some of you this could be a relationship that was walked away from a long time ago okay where there was like oh you know we're abandoning ship here it's not working so when I say ship relationship okay for some of you yeah for others of you this could be just a friendship or any other platonic relationship where now there's like some catch-up happening here and you guys you know like wow we can see each other that kind of thing so it's a good thing right just when I said that right platonic could be platonic but there's a meaning there's a coming together for sure and this is a card of alignment this is mutual meaning of the minds mirroring each other this is the mutuals so for some of you could be mutuals like if you have mutuals on Facebook if you're on like social media connecting you guys might not have ever been able to kind of come together on social media if your friends on there because of different schedules and stuff like that maybe we've just been putting likes on each other's pictures but different skin now you're coming together okay this start could be the start of new love start of a great friendship that could turn into love or just two people that just had something but just could only ever just be friends or dare I say the word without getting my head chewed off friends with benefits and couldn't become anything else eventually ended because it couldn't be anything more well now there's now there's an opportunity for something to get off the ground here and like I said I mean the longer you stay in something you don't want the more resentment builds so you have to make sure that if you if it's not working for you that you cut it nip it in the bud right away so there isn't any resentment and anger you just kind of have to look at something objectively be like okay right so we're just not compatible like our schedules it's scheduling doesn't work it doesn't fit so we're so rather than just kind of holding on and trying to hope for the best and try to make something you know put round pegs and square holes I'm sorry square pegs and round holes um don't do that just look at the look just look at your compatibility like you get a step by step right okay well we're not compatible but let's try to change each other that's just the waste of time and then you're gonna get you're gonna ruin any chance you have if things change later the resentment's gonna build and then turns into oh here on our theft now you guys just weren't compatible it's probably really all it is and that's it and then let it go not all the time I get it but most of the time that's really just what it is and sometimes people just aren't communicating that to each other and sometimes people are yeah like it's it's the guys too it's not just the women it's the guys too the guys are like oh no I think we can make it work meanwhile they're in India and you're in Alabama like what what are you talking about well I'll be there soon I'll be moving in 10 years get the hell out of here okay so there's a definitely a coming together here okay there's definitely a coming together here yeah free I'm free free falling I got that image of Tom Cruise in his car and Jerry McGuire you know he was taken off wait was that from that movie or was that from Rain Man now confused oh I mix up my movies now the older I get I should know the Jerry McGuire scenes that was from Tom that was from Rain Man wasn't it the free falling scene he was singing in his car yeah that was from Rain Man girl I got dyslexia the brain I swear with with my movie scenes I like same movie and then I'll pin it to the wrong movie scene and I'll pin it to the wrong movie anyway yeah I just saw that right wasn't it was it Rain Man I was at Jerry McGuire now holy now I'm gonna look it up but I gotta bleep this part out I'm gonna I have to bleep this part out because you know why it's a copyright issue all right you know what who cares I'm I don't remember I'm gonna just leave it there I really don't remember if that's it you tell me leave it in the comment leave in the chat because I just can't remember and I'm ashamed to admit that because Jerry McGuire is my most favorite movie and I'm ashamed to admit that it is what it is all right so yeah look I'm free I'm ready to commit I'm ready to do it all yeah is this person gonna tell Virgo this what's going on because I'm telling you that this is what's happening here I'm telling you let me just tell you I'm gonna tell you right now also we've got Taurus Aquarius Leo and Scorpio Gemini Cancer okay but I'm telling you that this is what I'm seeing now are they gonna have a conversate are they gonna have a conversate with Virgo over this weekend I don't know because I feel like I mean I said you were gonna be you're shocked by this so somehow you're gonna find out but I will say with the tower there is an energy of boom this is gonna be sudden this sudden change so it's Virgo gonna find out about this over this weekend no you're not gonna find out about this over this weekend no in other words they're not gonna they're not gonna tell you you're not gonna hear from this person over this weekend okay now they're giving me the page of cups you might all right I'll just it's a maybe okay you might you might hear from them how right now they're saying so you might hear from them but you might the conversation might not be about that for some of you you might hear from them and it might just be nothing heavy I don't know they're just giving me a maybe so we're gonna we're gonna leave it there okay as far as hearing from them but I will tell you that at least the energy is kicking up over this weekend or this person whatever they whatever you guys have been in misalignment about where I feel it's mostly a scheduling thing okay but if it's anything else that you feel like okay well there couldn't be we couldn't be together because of ABCD all the way through Z they're free from it they're free from it okay I feel it's mostly scheduling but for some of you there could have been an other commitment okay whenever falls under that umbrella that they couldn't get away from you know your story better than me but whatever was taking away from was taking them away from it was causing them to not be able to live a good healthy life right they could have been in a toxic relationship they could have been in a toxic environment they could have chosen to work a particular career that had a lot of toxic fumes around it they could have worked a particular career that caused them to be unwell mentally physically emotionally maybe took a toll on them after many years whatever it is whatever it is it's kind it's like done right it's coming to the end like this person is done like they are like that's it I'm done I'm gonna take my severance pay I'm gonna take whatever I I'll pay anything whatever I have to pay whatever I whatever I need to pay off whatever I can get packaged to take with me I'll take social security whatever I need and I'm going sailing I have free time now and and and as far as Virgo is concerned how you doing babe how you doing Virgo where you been everything all right I want to see you I miss you I love you sweet mild beautiful little text messages that kind of thing yeah it's so sweet it is it's so sweet let me get a couple of messages of love oracle cards here so financial challenges affecting this connection I feel like that might have played a role okay well there you go awakening someone is undergoing a spiritual transformation oh yeah well that retirement can do that to people you know there's definitely an element here of someone who is like coming alive they've had enough they've had enough they're passing on to another stage of their life that passing is in death they're moving into another they're transitioning into another stage of their life and then there's new love new love for self healthier choices or recommitment to love is developing now for some of you when we say new love this could be a new love start with somebody brand new okay that you might not even know about this you haven't met them yet okay where this person you might find out that you could just start talking and they might say now I haven't been in a relationship I have few and few and far between but my career has been I've been married to my work or they might tell you that they've had this they've been married for years and years and it's just been horrible but they've stayed because their spouse was ill for the past for like most of the marriage right that kind of thing and you know it's it's done and that kind of thing you know so for some of you this is a new kind of situation definitely so why is it relevant over the weekend because it's an it's an energetic thing like I said you may not find out all the details over this weekend but you might so I feel like most the bulk of the messages for those of you that already know this person already have a connection with them and whether it's a romantic relationship or a friend you will find out that this person has got time now for the relationship however as I always say I give my caveat you don't have to have time for them anymore if you've waited a long time and it's not what you want that's completely up to you that that part is where I back off I'm just like if you want it you have to want it if you don't want it you know it's completely understandable and you might just be like okay been there done that but I need to be I want to be with someone who's who's wants to who's available and present and so this could be somebody new you know so I don't know it's up to you right this is just the energy I'm picking up let's see if we can pick up signs coming in for you all right Scorpio and Pisces okay now let me get a couple of I'm gonna get a couple of initials I'm not gonna go hardcore with this because it is a weekend reading okay we have what all right this is the letter n n is a Nancy and then we have a Z okay someone might be from New Zealand also or Z Netherlands Netherlands okay some is born in 1988 we have August 23rd we have 1941 or someone is 41 if someone's born in 1941 how old would they be maybe like 80 howl if you're here on my channel someone is 32 okay and let's have the letter H the letter T I'm just gonna give it all J M K L W X Y and Z okay and let's get a charm that's us okay well that'll work I guess that'll work hold on you guys let me get a little black card so you can see so we've got a butterfly oh that's interesting and I'm gonna have to tell you if you have not gone over to my Moon Pie tarot channel there's a link in the chat box there's also gonna there's a link on my channel the butterfly card showed up yes so go back that there might be a reading there for you absolutely so this is transformation and change 100% yeah you might have a connection with butterflies I guess well depending where you are in the region I mean where I'm at the butterflies are all they've flown away but butterflies all about transformation and change that might be significant for you butterflies butterflies are not significant to me excuse me and what I mean by that is like I don't if I see butterflies decor I don't buy it they don't I love butterflies I think they're beautiful but I don't like put decor around my house of butterflies I would not choose a butterfly tattoo is my first choice if I were to get one I don't have butterfly stickers so I feel like if butterflies are significant to you in that way then this definitely this reading will be more specific to you and you should pay attention to that okay so you might have tattoos or stickers or you might see butterflies everywhere you go or hear a reading about butterflies something about butterfly you might even have a butterfly tattoo somewhere special it's symbolic to you for some reason or if you see one and they're not native to your area or it there sees it like it's off-season there's a message here for you all right you guys so I'm gonna leave your weekend or eating there for you I hope that you enjoyed that thank you so much for donating to the rescue kids fund I saw like somebody recently made a donation and I don't remember her name but I saw it and I thought man that was pretty freaking awesome she made a huge donation I think it

time you guys donate I'm not kidding I've got coffee and I drink buckets of this stuff buckets buckets of coffee so I'm super super grateful I saw some of you posted that you guys were like well you know I can't afford the membership right so as I've been saying I'm gonna reduce the membership price so I want you to keep that in mind because I want everybody to be able to become a member I'm gonna change the perks so please do think about becoming a member of my channel it will be affordable I know the prices have just gone up everywhere just the price of bread it's ridiculous and everybody keeps raising their prices because I think oh well we're competing with everybody else but actually that's not gonna help in my personal opinion because people can't afford it's so stupid I just look I'm I'm not I'm not a financier or anything like that I just feel like it doesn't help to raise the prices you're competing with other companies because they're raising the prices but it doesn't help those who need to pay for the products lower the prices just a bit so people you'll be able to get people to keep buying your products right so that's my thought process right just just be that person that isn't the a-hole that's just gonna that isn't gonna keep raising your prices so I'm gonna lower mine and hopefully it will help and yeah that's what's going on so there you go so if you guys I'm gonna be here Sunday for the live stream so definitely join in on Sunday and I think there's it for the announcements I have so many don't I have to stop with all these announcements I
